Several languages are in danger of extinction because they are spoken by tiny numbers of people. Some people say that governments should spend public money on saving these languages, while others believe that would be a waste of money. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.
It has been argued that several genuine languages are endangered because only a few people used it. Many of them said that it needs to be preserved by using some public
money
to save those languages. Others, on the other side, do not agree with this
idea because it just an action to waste money
.
First
of all, my strong belief goes to the idea that public money
can be used to preserve these genuine cultures. Although
only tiny groups of people communicate with this
original language
, still, it is part of our civilization. Moreover
, this
unique communication can be used to attract tourist from all over the world. For instance
, in Indonesia, there is a Bugis tribe, who can talk B
etawi Change the article
the
language
. In the 1990s, the used of Betawi is getting reduced, and then
in 2000, Jakarta's mayor made some programs to keep this
language
, such
as making B
etawi Change the article
the
language
as a subject in school and introducing this
to International platform. Since their existences are well-known, yet, many tourists arrive in Indonesia just to see this
kind of language
. Therefore
, the public money
that we used to protect that sort of communications can be seen as a long-term investment.
However
, there are groups of people who think that it is better to let our cultures extinct. This
kind of group, which is almost of young generations, tends to focus on developing their modern city, rather than protecting their cultures. In addition
, the needs of getting updates with the lifestyles have ingrained into these generations. Therefore
, there is no wonder that this
idea can emerge in society. Moreover
, this
belief will stake many kinds of aspects if it is implemented. For example
, the loss of true identity among modern generations may become common in the latter. In the end, I will not blame this
notion because every person has their own free-will, but the risks are all yours.
In a nutshell, I reiterate my strong belief that our governments can spend our money
to maintain our unique languages. It is because that language
is part of our culture, and also
, the identity that makes us special.Submitted by michellina594 on
