In this episode, Meghnad wonders how English became such a widespread language in administration and in India, generally speaking. By the way, it's all Macaulay's doing. He makes even Trump look like a tree-hugging, refuge-rescuing liberal. Meghnad also steps back and wonders: What is the point of language even? Why is it so emotive and important for human beings in general? This is Part 2 of the Language episode. We did Part 1 last week where Meghnad spoke about how Hindi is not a national language and why it is so important to understand its origins.
