There are several
languages
 which are at risk of disappearing from the world due to lack of use by
people
. Some
people
 argue that
governments
 should financially support saving these
languages
, whereas others think that it is a wastage of
money
. I believe protecting dialects which are in danger is important, I disagree that
governments
 should allocate
money
 for
this
.
This
 essay will discuss both these viewpoints.
Firstly
,
governments
 should allocate funds to serve the basic needs of society like food, medicine and education, and fuel.
Further
, if the economy is more stable, authorities can financially support improving peoples' wealth by improving public transportation, sports facilities etc
instead
 of spending them to save the
languages
 which are at risk of dying.
Therefore
 the quality of life will be improved while society and economy are more stable.
Moreover
, the young generation today is not encouraged to study local dialects. Because they see it as a waste of their time since learning those
languages
 is not very useful for their lives and career.
For example
, research that has been done using 10 000 university students has shown that 80% of students are not using local
languages
 for day-to-day verbal communication.
Thus
money
 will be a waste if
people
 are not encouraged to learn.
On the other hand
, language is a prominent feature that can exhibit the value of a well-established culture to the world.
Therefore
 saving
languages
 which are in danger of disappearing is significant as it presents our heritage and proud history to the globe. Because of that financial allocations can be done by
governments
 up to a certain level to overcome
this
 danger. To conclude, even though a cultural value is involved with
languages
 and they are at risk of dying,
governments
 should mainly allocate their funds to ensure the quality of life of
people
.
Furthermore
,
money
 will be wasted when
people
 are not willing to speak those dialects.
