What tools do you use to protect the language from dying ?



One can see too many people and groups are racing to protect the languages, the dying languages or so called endangered languages.



I would  like to ask these people and groups, how you can protect the languages from dying, what tools do you use.

The Google channelled lots of  money to digital it. Many others follow.

Can digital the languages can keep these languages alive for centuries ?

Languages have no DNA where they can be recovered centuries later like what you find in the today science. If you can using the DNA, please go to China to recover the languages which already died thousands of years ago when Emperor Qin or Chin killed all the scholars and burnt the books. This scene should keep you in mind when you are talking about digital the languages.




A person can speak 2, 3 or even 4 languages is nothing surprised. Therefore, you all there who shouted loudly and going badly here and there, please learn the dying language and use it in your life together with the community of dying language.

How languages die:

1. by force and rule, example the Emperor Qin in China and many places in the world now

2.the community give up its own languages due to minority.

3.dominance of languages, for example, language A is too strong and community of language B join the language A and do not continue the use of their own language. A very good example is in Malaysia where many Chinese and Indians do not learn their languages, whether Chinese, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam etc.

The other would be seen as those countries are still speaking Spanish, French, Portuguese,English after independence for years or centuries

Is it hard to feel it ?

A big joke was the president of the endangered language fun left me a note saying do not comment with Esperanto in her facebook page.

Do I have to say it much ?

Are these people on the one hand talking to save the languages and on the other hand killing the languages faster than they think of by using English ? I doubt the president of that particular fund has the English blood.

Fine, again, I would ask how these people with what tools that you save the languages.

Would you like to read the 1980 Manila Manifesto of United Nations World Tourism Organisation ?
