Description: Tim Lomas is the curator of an online lexicography of words from over 100 languages that all have one thing in common: they aren't translatable. In an interview with Tapestry host Mary Hynes, Lomas talks about how this massive cross-cultural vocabulary can help us build a more universal understanding of well-being. CBC Radio's William Firth hosts a show that is broadcast in the Gwich'in language. He tells Tapestry host Mary Hynes about how he embarked on a life-long mission to regenerate the language for today's youth.
