Band 5

Every year several languages die out. Some people think that this is not important because life will be easier if there are fewer languages in the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion.

Every
language
 that dies out is a tragedy because the subsequent culture
also
 dies with it. 'The wisdom of humanity is coded in
language
’. ‘Once a
language
 dies, the knowledge dies with
it’
Correct your spelling
it
show examples
. In the Inuit
language
, there are many words to decode snow.
This
 is an example of how different cultures see the world and how different their lives are as well. We cannot accede to those stories, tales, to the culture underlying
this
language
 any longer. Part of our humanity will vanish with
this
 extinct
language
; as if we have a black hole in our cultural heritage. People who claim that
languages
 are unimportant have vested interests in perpetuating only the dominant culture. Needless to say,
languages
 that die out belong usually to indigenous people, not major
languages
. Back to my original point, they might well be perfectly partial. In Spain, autonomic
languages
 were forbidden during Franco’s dictatorship and,
as a result
, these
languages
 were severely damaged and their speakers harshly suppressed.
This
 policy of denial led to the present-day reactionary attitude of some people, by which autonomic inhabitants must speak in Spanish. In a nutshell,
languages
 are always under preconception.
This
 is the reason why it is always suspicious the argument of one country and one
language
.
