What if I identify as a DEC and wish to communicate in FORTRAN?
Heap big money.
Is upper class twittish now a native language?
Does authentic frontier gibberish count? ~ Gabby Johnson
Any language that is so inferior that its native speakers abandon it, doesn’t deserve to survive. We should go through its pockets and check for any good profane words before discarding it though. We can always use another Frack, Frick, Frell, or that Chinese word they used on Firefly.
I believe that
nativeIndian “languages” were/are not even written so how do you revitalize something that isn’t even recorded? Also, I believe “enhance” means to expand on something that already exists so how much are they spending on doing this already? Who benefits from this? (Other than hack government “workers”)I have an idea, how about the Indians take all that nice tax free casino money they get and revitalize whatever they want? I bet it’s a lot more than $4.2 million and I bet they don’t spend a dime of it on “revitalizing” their language(s)
