The Race to Preserve Endangered Languages The world is a vibrant tapestry of cultures, each threaded together by unique and diverse languages. These languages are not just communication tools; they are windows to understanding different ways of life, worldviews, and centuries-old traditions. Unfortunately, many of these languages are fading away, replaced by more dominant tongues. The disappearance of a language means the loss of a cultural heritage, an ancestral identity, and a historical narrative. There are currently over 7,000 languages spoken worldwide, but according to UNESCO, more than 40% of them are in danger of becoming extinct. These languages are usually spoken by indigenous communities that are struggling to preserve their native tongues in a world dominated by more widely spoken languages. Preserving endangered languages is of utmost importance. It fosters cultural diversity, maintains the world's historical heritage, and contributes to the rich tapestry of global linguistic diversity. It's not just about saving words, but also about saving worldviews, oral traditions, and ways of understanding the world that could offer valuable perspectives. Efforts to preserve these languages are gaining momentum globally. Institutions, linguists, and communities are joining hands to document, revitalize, and promote these languages. They're leveraging modern technology to make a difference. Language learning apps now offer courses in endangered languages, online platforms are being created to document these languages, and social media campaigns are raising awareness about their importance. For example, the Endangered Languages Project, powered by Google, is an online platform designed to support language preservation through collaboration. Wikitongues, a non-profit organization, aims to document every language in the world by collecting and sharing video oral histories from native speakers. We all have a role to play in this mission to save endangered languages. Learn about the languages at risk in your own country or community. Use social media to spread awareness about language preservation. Support organizations working to document and revitalize these languages. Remember, every language tells a story, every word paints a picture of a people's past and present. By saving a language, we're not just preserving a tool for communication; we're safeguarding a piece of human history and cultural richness. Join the conversation. Share your thoughts on preserving linguistic diversity and let's work together to keep the world's languages alive.

Welp. He tried it. The closer to the Chuck (Charleston) the richer the accent. We speak a form of Seminole creole, mixed with African, Native and English. People mistake it for southern slang, but it actually has syntax rules like any full language. Sadly, the language and much of the culture is threatened by the educational system, government and private land grabs and rising sea levels. (We are coastal peoples centralized around Southeastern sea islands and inland rivers.) Yes, many of us are your mixed "Creek" and African indigenous people. Indigenous people are fighting on several fronts to protect the earth, their cultures and their own lives. We we never "thugs" or "savages", we're a heavily traumatized people trying to get through life without understanding the resources newly available to us to cope. Be gentle, be patient, most of all, be respectful. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿✊🏼 -------------------------------------------- Reposted from @geecheeexperience (@get_regrann) - How we use a few words in a scenario #longeye #GeecheeExperience #Geechee #Geechie #Gullah #gullahgeechee #gullahgeechie #aave #africanamericanvernacularenglish #africandiaspora #GeecheeDiaspora #blackdiaspora #caribbeanconnection #languagepreservation #endangeredlanguages #Charleston #chucktown (at Urban Shaman Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1dznfiH8d3/?igshid=u26726xkh3lw

The are doctors and lawyers, scientists, teachers. My parents and my grandmothers were college educated.

You want to die on that hill? 🤔 ------------------------------------------------------ Reposted from @geecheeexperience (@get_regrann) - Contrary to popular belief, People who speak Gullah Geechee ain't dumb Gullah Geechee IS a language with its own grammar rules and structure. By equating “proper English” with intelligence, yall are dismissing people who speak AAVE and other languages. Stop telling us to "speak proper".
