Why Languages Die Out

720 Words3 Pages

Other than the global languages we talk and learn, there are languages we can’t learn, yes the languags we aren’t able to learn. Languages, and with languages big or small cultures are forgetten due to the conditions we live in. Languages die out and become endangered more than we know in the world. The three aspects for why languages die out that I’m going to lean on are; popular culture, immigration and social-job life.

Teenagers who are from diffrerent cultures are being bullied by peers in their school especially in the US. As the Arab-Americans and Islams who live in the US create 5.5 million of the population (3.5 Arab and 2 million Islam). 43% of these teens have been faced the fact that they and their school mates seperate at a point. …show more content…

Not only by economic or political ways language can become endangered by social ways. Social-job life is a big factor for endangered languages, Looking at a persons name or they nation people the managers who hire workers to their company become prejudist and they even don’t give a chance to them to express themselves. There happens misunderstandings between the manager and the worker who applied for the job. Because the worker doen’t have the perfect language the communication becomes tough. As we see IMMIGRATONWORKSUSA webpage, “In 2007, foreigners accounted for nearly half of all workers with less than a high school education. The U.S. needs these workers to fill seasonal and unskilled jobs.” As we see the American workers at a Aerican company are more than the foreign worker population as the result of not giving a chance to them When it comes to the social part, people won’t be aware of whats going on in the world because they use the non-lasted language, also the latest trends and gossip.

Everyday a culture is falling apart and every year endangered language number increases to 10 and dissapears as we see in the example Yarawi language which is the number 1 endangered language in the world. The only language, people or culture we’ll beknowing in a couple of decades won’t be the ones wh,ch has been on earth since the

  • Summary Of The Working Poor Invisible In America By David Shipler

    The lack of proper English and understanding of the American culture was a huge problem for those working in sweatshops in Los Angeles, emphasized profoundly by Shipler. These individuals were unable to escape the low wages they were receiving for many reasons, including lack of English or fear of being deported. A consequential result of language barriers and immigration also affects the ability to obtain proper health care for families and children. In chapter eight, Shipler writes, “ Many legal immigrants are reluctant to accept food stamps or Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, to which they may be entitled, because they are afraid they will be judged ‘public charges’ and therefore be denied permanent residence leading to citizenship” (Shipler, 207). This is a great example of how families are not receiving benefits they deserve due to fear of deportation or not gaining citizenship.

  • African American Vernacular English Essay

    Language, though primarily used as a means of communication, can be used to form community-like bonds with additions to and evolutions of different regional, cultural, racial, etc., vernaculars. What is one community’s “how are you?” is another’s “what’s good?” or “‘sup?” Those terms are understood and accepted almost unilaterally in their respective communities, but beyond those borders, they may or may not be. The push to broaden mandating “proper English pronunciation” is a direct attack on those communities that do not fall in the narrow definition of those whose community is deemed “correct” by mainstream society. When this is enforced, its roots are usually found in racism/white supremacy.

    Bullies are usually stronger and victims are usually perceived as weaker and unable to protect themselves.” (Masterson,1997) Bullying expands in many aspects of everyday life; from schoolchildren and teenagers, to adults , working environments and even spouses and family members. Considering that the first signs of bullying appear among schoolchildren, we should examine it in its infancy, that is, bullying in early years and school life, which in turn becomes with the passage of years violence and in some cases even crime. As far as bullying at school is concerned, “one definition is that a student is being bullied or victimized, when he or she is exposed, repeatedly and over time , to negative actions on the part of one or more other students.”
