Take a closer look at Newton's own "Lake Talk," a sub-dialect named after Silver Lake that developed in the village of Nonantum. Learn the lingo of the Lake, spoken by generations of locals including actor Matt LeBlanc, and explore how the uncertain origins of this way of speaking hints at broader cultural connections underlying Nonantum's historically diverse communities. The program takes place at the Durant-Kenrick House and Grounds, 286 Waverley Ave., Newton. Register here.
