One fun fact that didn't make it into the video: The inhabitants of La Gomera in the Canary Islands use a form of communication based on whistles to bridge long distances of several kilometers across valleys and ravines, called El Silbo.

Can we document all existing languages so that even if language goes extinct we know about them in future. Extinction of languages, cultures is inevitable in my opinion we should document everything while we can.

Languages are constantly and rapidly changing. Modern English speakers can't even understand English from more than 800 years ago, so in a sense, even old dialects of English have gone extinct.

More than 60% of the world’s population can be categorized into the top ten most spoken languages. Trying to imagine another 6,990 languages being spoken among the remaining 30-40% is mind numbing.

The fact that we can save languages from being forgotten through MEMES of all things

Before I started learning Scottish Gaelic, I always wondered why so many of our mountain names here in Scotland start with β€œBen”. I eventually learned it comes from Gaelic β€œbeinn”, meaning mountain, and I thought it was really interesting how even anglicised names can tell you a lot about different locations. I imagine it’s similar in the Americas, where a lot of place names have Indigenous origins. I think endangered languages should be preserved for the cultural aspect alone, but there are practical reasons to learn an endangered language.

add a meme word to every language β€” for example, β€œantibabypillen”

The reason for that extinction is practicality. I live in Indonesia, very close to my place now, we at least have 4 languages. But mostly used 1 major native language that everyone knows. Because it would be hard to talk to a neighboring village if everyone uses their own languages, so we pick either the easiest or biggest city language. And also the only language book available and teaches to students is Bahasa Indonesia and 1 other major native language in the area. Other small/local languages usually have not been made into books yet. And with ease of internet access and parents use Bahasa Indonesia with their kids, young people usually can't use their local language.

I think it is inevitable that the languages will die till we only have a few and some dialects. We should archive and preserve all the languages we can, along with recordings of said language.

This is a huge problem being faced by indigenous peoples of North America in general but also in my community specifically. The Elders and leaders in our community struggle to keep the Cree and Dene languages alive.

I think that even if they don’t become well spoken languages, they should be well documented so we can understand them even if in the future they’re extinct

It's quite fascinating how languages with very little native speakers get documented. Is it that one of the speakers happened to be a linguist? Or are linguists just that good at learning other languages?

When I thought about it, really it’s more than just losing words. Sayings, description of feelings, a whole different way of making sentences and pretty much so many things. If you thought about it for a while you get the idea, I have a lot of things in my mind that goes well with this example but it’s 4 am in the morning and I’m too tired and I’m so mesmerized by the thing, I actually stopped my scrolling section and came here to write this down. Write this paragraph. Because it really made me think about it.
