Default Unesco: Languages under threat

*~* Magda *~* writes:

What's your point? That some languages are not important given that other languages can
fulfill their purpose?


The point is that a language that dies out is a language that nobody
wants to preserve. There's no point in preserving a language just
because it exists.

Important languages persist of their own accord. Unimportant
languages disappear.
