13"Many of the world's lesser-known languages are being lost as fewer and fewer people speak them. The governments of countries in which these languages are spoken should act to prevent such languages from becoming extinct."


As is known to all, language is an indispensible as well as a significant part of a nation’s historical culture. Not only because it records the history of a nation from its origin till now, but indicates the development of a country. The disappearance of a language, to some extent, may be caused by the poor strength of a country, or a dynasty.

In the ancient time, people gather together in order to protect themselves from being hurt by predatory animals or some other unexpected accidents. We anthropologists call this a tribe. Then for the sake of a better understanding among the folk, there exists some basic simple words. And finally, a language, which is combined with all the words created in the daily lives, is born. In other words, a language is used for communication and understood by some particular group of people. Accordingly, the language will not extinct as long as some people keep saying it. However, as the cruel warfare in the world, tribes or countries which are less competitive are occupied and gradually assimilated. Spontaneously, the original language is forgotten and ultimately extinct. Such examples are replete in history. After Columbus discovered America, the aboriginal Indian were discriminated and infracted by the European, which lead to a consequence that their language is decreased at a tremendous speed. The same situation happened on the Australian aboriginal language, too. On closer inspection it may be that there is some common ground among these disappearing languages. That is all these languages belong to the less powerful groups of people.

Today, when we live in a peaceful society, there is hardly any possibility that one country will be overcame and dominated by others. But unfortunately, language extinction still exists. Some people consider this may due to the reason that fewer and fewer people speak them. But in my opinion, the fundamental cause is the same with the ancient time—the poor strength of a country. Why English, not other languages such as Mexican or Thai, becomes the most universal language in the world? Why Chinese, after China joined the WTO and contributed a lot to the global economy, becomes the most prevalent language people want to learn? Both of these owe to the powerful strength of the countries themselves. If a country is powerful enough to attract the whole world’s attentions, then why citizens would like to speak other languages instead of their mother tongue? Therefore, what the government, which worries its own language being disappeared, should really do is to improve the country’s comprehensive strength first. Only by elevating the position of the country in the family of nations, can the majority of people pay attention to its culture, history, including language.

Besides, the power of the citizens should not be neglected. After all, languages can not survive without speakers. So apart from increasing the power of the country, the government should also arouse people’s national consciousness; let them realize the essentiality of speaking their mother language. Once a country had adequate power and the citizens were full of patriotism, it is surely that their language would be more valued than ever.

Besides, the power of the citizens should not be neglected. After all, languages can not survive without speakers. So apart from increasing the power of the country, the government should also arouse people’s national consciousness; let them realize the essentiality of speaking their mother language. Once a country had adequate power and the citizens were full of patriotism, it is surely that their language would be more valued than ever. 最后一段写的很好~赞下...
