Nous avons été prof de français. Sommés de nous offusquer des fautes dorthographe, nous avons été pris pour les curés de la langue. Nous avons écrit pour dédramatiser, pour réfléchir ensemble et puis aussi parce quon a toujours pensé que lAcadémie Française avait un vrai potentiel comique.
«Les deux belges qui veulent simplifier la langue française»: tout est faux dans cette phrase. Pas «simplifier» mais bien faire preuve desprit critique, se demander si tout se vaut dans notre orthographe. Pas deux belges, mais bien deux curieux qui veulent transmettre le travail des linguistes de toute la francophonie, pas même la «langue française», seulement son orthographe. Car lorthographe, cest pas la langue, cest juste le code graphique qui permet de la retranscrire. Passion pour les uns, chemin de croix pour les autres, elle est sacrée pour tous. Et pourtant, il ne sagit peut-être que dun énorme malentendu. Arnaud Hoedt et Jérôme Piron sont linguistes de formation. Ils ont vécu 25 ans sans se connaître, mais c’était moins bien. Ils ont ensuite enseigné pendant 15 ans dans la même école. Quand Arnaud participe à la rédaction des programmes de français en Belgique, Jérôme se spécialise en médiation culturelle. En 2016, ils écrivent et mettent en scène le spectacle « La Convivialité », au Théâtre National de Bruxelles. Ce spectacle conférence qui traite de la question du rapport dogmatique à l’orthographe tourne depuis 3 ans dans toute la francophonie. Dans la foulée, ils publient l’ouvrage « La faute de l’orthographe », aux éditions Textuel. Ils se définissent comme suit: « Linguistes dilet(t)antes. Pédagogues en (robe de) chambre. Tentent de corriger le participe passé. Écrivent des trucs. Vrais-Faux Comédiens. Bouffeurs d’Académicien ».
A la question « est-ce que ça se dit? «, Arnaud et Jérôme répondent invariablement « oui, tu viens de le faire ». This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)

Why learn another language? Words provide us with the ability for connection, empathy and perspective-taking. And when you learn multiple languages you improve your brain, you accelerate your capacity to learn, and you become a better communicator. Vitally, you are also able to step into the world of another human being. To truly understand them and speak to their heart. The question isn’t why should you learn a language, it’s why wouldn’t you. Louka Parry is an award-winning educator and hyperlearner who speaks five languages, holds two Masters degrees and has traveled to over 50 countries. After growing up monolingual in the city of Adelaide, Australia, Louka moved to Europe and uncovered a passion for languages, culture and learning. He returned to Australia to become a teacher and began his career in a very remote Aboriginal community, now working globally to help transform schools and learning. He continues to accumulate languages and advocates for all of us to step into the unknown to grow, connect and thrive.

Іргелі ғылымның маңызын барлық адам түсінетін сияқты, бірақ шын мәнінде оның қажеттілігі мен пайдасын көп адам түсіндіріп бере алмайды. Іргелі ғылымның негізгі міндеті табиғаттағы немесе қоғамдағы үрдісті неліктен солай болатынын түсіндіру. Жұлдыздар шаң-тозаң, газдардың шоғырланып тығыздығы артқан кезде жаратылады. Сол сияқты білім де бастапқыда көзге көрінбейді. Бірақ белгілі бір тығыздықты қалыптастырған кезде революциялық ойларды тудырады — қоғамда және ғылым мен техникада прогресс жасалады. PhD, математик, теоретик-физик, механик, ҚР мемлекеттік сыйлық иегері. Ұлттық ғылым академиясының ең жас мүшесі
