and the dodo...
According to the NY Times article “Languages Die, But Not Their Last Words”, there are about 7,000 languages spoken in the world today. Of these languages, nearly half will likely be extinct in the next 100 years. [Read this article before your answer these questions.]
In your blog response, I want you discuss one or more of the following questions:
Should we care about languages dying out? Why? Is language important to cultural identity? What is lost when we lose a language?
Please think of an original title for each of your posts. I will count comments on other people’s posts as your post for the week when your posts respond to something that the original poster stated in her/his blog response.
