Listening - Words!

We've been talking about linguistics this week. As language learners, you will probably be amazed, bored, frustrated, and inspired by words in your own language and the language you choose to learn. Watch this video:
The title of this video is "Words", though there is very little speaking involved. Can you figure out in what way this video, and the images, are related to words?

This video was created to accompany a show by a favorite podcast, Radiolab. The topic of the show is - you guessed it - Words
Listen to this fascinating radio show here (or simply search "words" and "radiolab")
There is an English transcript available! Read along to the show.
