Manx language education is developing students' linguistics on a world stage:
That's Rob Teare, he's head of the Manx Language Unit - it's taking four young linguists from secondary schools to represent the Island at the International Linguistics Olympiad in India.
Young people from Ramsey Grammar School, King William's College and Queen Elizabeth II High School will join contestants from 40 countries between 25-29 July.
There, they'll solve the 'world's toughest puzzles in language and linguistics' - Rob says it's not for the faint-hearted:
