There are around 7,000 languages spoken in the world, but that number is shrinking. Unesco estimates that half could disappear by the end of the century. So how are languages lost, and what does that mean for the people who speak them?

    Let me guess, you don’t speak natively one of your country’s minority languages

    WTF?! Are you on meth or something?

    Pressuring minorities to reject their own native language is just chauvinistic and racist/

    I NEVER argued for that, I explicitly in my first post stated that that is immoral, although my example was genocide, the meaning is the same.

    I’ve known lots of people like you.

    Again with the boxing people into some sort of category with no basis.
    Funny how you don’t present a single argument, but rely exclusively on personal insults?
