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?
Several thousands of
languages
exist in our world nowadays. Most people
speak major languages
namely Chinese, English, French, Hindi, Russian, German, and Arabian, nonetheless
, some people
speak minor ones. Most languages
are derived from ancient times, and some are a result of mixing several other languages
, some were created in modern times. But in our time cultural communications between different nations have grown, open borders allow individuals to travel and relocate and the also
Internet creates a unified information space. In these conditions, some languages
die out. We will discuss this
process, and consider positive and negative points.
To begin
with positive arguments. Mankind has reached an information era hence
as a rule people
live in the global information world. Furthermore
, the process of globalization continues. The official negotiations require a knowledge of major languages
like English, on the contrary
knowledge of minor languages
is useless, because almost nobody understands these. If there were fewer languages
in the world, then
people
from different countries would understand each other more. Moreover
, the absence of a language
barrier will help individuals better understand each other hence
cultural exchange will increase therefore
people
will treat better each other.
Nevertheless
, a negative argument exists. We can lose the culture of small nations, for example
, we do know not all about ancient literacy. Many small nations have their literature
, music, and painting. Correct word choice
own literature
Along with
native speakers will end up the experts of culture. It is the cost of language
consolidation of mankind. We will consider some elaborate languages
as complex cyphers. For instance
, the American Army used Native Americans for encryption. It can induce a scientific interest.
In conclusion, I will agree with the first position. I believe that all useful knowledge from any minor language
has already been translated into major languages
but the time spent learning a major non-native language
is very sorry.Submitted by andreidiakov2100 on
