[edit]

"passive speakers" comes from the article on the Ainu people. The original author states they were just trying to flesh out what was a red link, but I believe they were guessing at the meaning.

I began to totally rewrite the article because of its terrible quality, but I realized while researching that nothing seems to turn up about passive speakers in linguistics. There are, however, passive speakers in sound systems.

UPDATE: On further research, I am finding other uses of the term. I will rewrite it instead and remove the speedy deletion request. Liastnir 18:32, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
