  • Native American Languages, Indigenous Languages of the Native Peoples of North, Middle, and South America
    Native American Languages, indigenous languages of the native peoples of North, Middle, and South America. The precise number of languages originally spoken cannot be known, since many disappeared before they were documented. In North America, around 300 distinct, mutually unintelligible languages were spoken when Europeans arrived. Of those, 187 survive today, but few will continue far into the 21st century, since children are no longer learning the vast majority of these. In Middle America (Mexico and Central America) about 300 languages have been identified, of which about 140 are still spoken. South American languages have been the least studied. Around 1500 languages are known to have been spoken, but only about 350 are still in use. These, too are disappearing rapidly. Classification A major task facing scholars of Native American languages is their classification into language families. (A language family consists of all languages that have evolved from a single ancestral language, as English, German, French, Russian, Greek, Armenian, Hindi, and others have all evolved from Proto-Indo-European.) Because of the vast number of languages spoken in the Americas, and the gaps in our information about many of them, the task of classifying these languages is a challenging one. In 1891, Major John Wesley Powell proposed that the languages of North America constituted 58 independent families, mainly on the basis of superficial vocabulary resemblances. At the same time Daniel Brinton posited 80 families for South America. These two schemes form the basis of subsequent classifications. In 1929 Edward Sapir tentatively proposed grouping these families into superstocks, 6 in North America and 15 in Middle America.

  • WHY WE SHOULD CARE ABOUT LANGUAGE DEATH Wael
    International Journal of English Language and Linguistics Research Vol.5, No 5, pp. 62-73, October 2017 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) WHY WE SHOULD CARE ABOUT LANGUAGE DEATH Wael Abdulrahman Almurashi Department of Languages and Translations, Faculty of Science and Arts, Taibah University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ABSTRACT: The fortunes of any language can fall and rise and are linked familiarly to the fortunes of their speakers. Nowadays, there are many languages becoming widely spoken. Though, it is difficult for smaller languages to survive, a significant number of languages that have been successfully revitalized. The purpose of this paper is to explore themes of language death in various respects, with focus on why we should care about languages dying. This paper also answered some questions regarding the definition of language death and the estimated number of languages are endangered and currently in use. Additionally, it highlighted the problems surrounding the loss of languages, and provided some constructive solutions to reclaim and revive dead and endangered languages. This paper also included a number of recommendations for linguists and endangered language speakers or communities. KEYWORDS: Language Death, Endangered Language, Linguists, Language Revival, Reclaim. INTRODUCTION The importance of a language rises and ebbs in direct proportion to the importance enjoyed by the people who speak that language. Of late, many different languages are being spoken on a mass basis by a large number of people. Therefore, it is becoming difficult for smaller languages to survive. However, the possibility of the revival of smaller languages is not entirely gloomy.

    European Journal of English Language and Literature Studies Vol. 4, Issue 6, pp. 53-65, September 2016 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) LANGUAGE REVIVAL: SIGNIFICANCE, STRATEGIES, METHODS AND ISSUES Abdulmohsin Ahmad Alshehri Department of Languages and Translations, Faculty of Science and Arts, Taibah University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ ABSTRACT: The main purpose of this paper is to outline the maintenance of cultural heritage through language revival. It discusses the need for language revitalisation in terms of its significance, strategies, methods and issues. It found that ethical reasons, aesthetic motivations, economic justifications, cognitive benefits are adequate to embark on any language revival program. It also found that both language and culture need to be revived. It was also found that there are three effective approaches to language revival (i.e. total-immersion method, bilingual method and language reclamation method). It was also found that language revitalisation programs experience a number of problems, represented in complexity of the language, existence of other languages to revive, government support and language programs. This paper concluded that language revival is a matter of ethics, pride, knowledge, beauty, economics and cognition. Thus, the general public
