¿Qué tienen en común el telar de Platón, las arañas políglotas y las cercas de ramas ancestrales?
En este episodio de "Domando los verbos en español", desentrañamos la poesía oculta en verbos como tejer, entrelazar y trenzar. Desde la metáfora política de Platón hasta el musubu japonés (結ぶ), exploramos cómo los hilos verbales entrecruzan culturas, construyen alianzas y dan forma a nuestra percepción del mundo. Con paradas en el quechua, el mapudungun y el chino clásico, descubrirás que aprender un idioma es dominar el arte milenario de la lanzadera lingüística.
