The speaker asserts that government of countries where lesser-known languages are spoken should intervene to prevent these languages from becoming extinct.I agree in so far as a country s indigenous and distinct languages should not be abandoned and forgot ten altogether.At some point ,however ,i think cultural identity should yield to the more practical considerations of day-to-day life in a global society. On the one hand,the indigenous language of any geographical region is part-and-parcel of the cultural heritage of the region s natives.In my observation we humans have a basic psychological need for individual identity,which we define by way of our memebership in distinct cultural groups.A culture defines itself in various ways-by its unique traditions ,rituals ,mores attitudes and beliefs ,but especially language.Therefore, when a people s language becomes extinct the result is a diminished sense of pride ,dignity ,and self-worth. |
