Linguistic diversity in the world today is an issue of growing social importance, as the majority of all living languages are endangered in their existence. It is indicated that out of approximately 6000 languages existing in the world, 200 have disappeared and 538 are in critical danger of extinction. Language is the means by which we transmit our ideas, our knowledge and our identity from one generation to the next. It is predicted that 50% of the more than six thousand languages currently spoken will not survive the turn of the century. And when the last speaker fluent in a language dies, we lose the centuries of knowledge and traditions that helped shape who we are. For these communities, the preservation of their languages goes through the restoration of their cultural identities, their values and their heritage. With the disappearance of unwritten and undocumented languages, humanity would lose not only a cultural richness but also important ancestral knowledge anchored, in particular, in indigenous languages. In order to emphasize the importance, the United Nations General Assembly, through resolution number (A / Res / 71/178), has designated 2019 as the “International Year of Indigenous Languages”.India is endowed with and rich in linguistic diversity. But the state of this diversity is worrying. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization - Atlas of the World's Endangered Languages states that India has the highest number of endangered languages in the world, at nearly 196 endangered languages. It is extremely important and disturbing. Although language endangerment is a global phenomenon, India also appears to be facing endangerment and shrinking domains. Faced with this scenario, it is imperative to stop this trend both in India and in the world. This research seeks to find justice conscious remedy in this regards.

This volume traces the theme of the loss of language and culture in numerous post-colonial contexts. It establishes that the aphasia imposed on the indigenous is but a visible symptom of a deeper malaise — the mismatch between the symbiotic relation nurtured by the indigenous with their environment and the idea of development put before them as their future. The essays here show how the cultures and the imaginative expressions of indigenous communities all over the world are undergoing a phase of rapid depletion. They unravel the indifference of market forces to diversity and that of the states, unwilling to protect and safeguard these marginalized communities. This book will be useful to scholars and researchers of cultural and literary studies, linguistics, sociology and social anthropology, as well as tribal and indigenous studies.

According to UNESCO, nearly a third of 7000 languages spoken around the world are endangered. More than 15% of all languages have less than 1000 speakers. With each language that goes extinct, humanity loses a bit of its rich history. To learn more about these languages and to do his part to spread awareness, Sohum Sukhatankar set out on a journey one summer across three states in Northeast India. Join him as he encounters a melting pot of people and cultures in this remote part of the world where dozens of endangered languages are spoken. Sohum outlines his steps and impressions as he travels across the lands and paints a vivid yet realistic picture of his encounters. While efforts are being made by the younger generation to revive languages in some instances, the preservation of endangered languages in this region remains an uphill battle. Sohum captures some of the progress made to this end and the challenges faced. Hear him recount his meeting firsthand with many activists who undertook the difficult yet necessary endeavor of preserving their own languages. Written from the perspective of a high school teenager making his way to connect with local tribes, this book explores the alarming issue of language extinction and why we must act with urgency to preserve some of the world's most threatened cultures.
