• December 2010

På TEDxDubai, spørger engelsklæreren gennem lang tid, Patricia Ryan, et provokerende spørgsmål: forhindrer verdens fokus på engelsk at der spredes gode idéer på andre sprog? (For eksempel: hvad hvis Einstein var nødt til at bestå en engelskprøve?). Det er et passionerende forsvar for oversættelse og at dele idéer.
