Endangered lenguages and cultures are some of those things we never take time to think in, maybe because we live in the middle of huge culture with lot of people sharing lenguage and customs or just because we are to busy taking take of others things we consider more important, but if we reflect what Wave Davis said " What would be like be unable to speak your own lenguage?", how would you feel if you lost part of your identity?, how would you it be to live in a uniform culture, same lenguage, same thinking,etc., what if you lose what decribed how we interact with nature, part of our inheritage,the way we express from the inside out?, sound hard ah?, well thats exactly how lots of people that belong to small communities are strugguling to keep their lenguage alive. Thats why the reason of this post is remember the impotance of protecting the culture.
Just for you to know there are more than 7000 spoken lenguages in the world, but is so sad to see that what makes our planet so diverse and mixed, what make us so rich in culture, is desaperaring. We have to be concience that the 94% of the population of the worls only speaks the 6% of the lenguages and that 6% is so endengered that when we get to 2100 all those lenguage would probably have dissappeared, are you sure you wanna live in a cmpletely monotonous society, not having all those difference that make all cultures so interestings?? As Tom Colls says globalization is sweeping around the world making communities come out of isolation and seek interaction with the world, we are in some way forcing them to leave their traditions in one side to be more like us.
Wouldnt be nice help them to brought back into everyday use their culture-lenguaje such as jewish people did? why don't we protect our precious and beauty culture before it disappears in a blink of an eye??... Think about it!! xoxo..
