What would happen if the oldest Spanish dialect in the United States disappeared? Would we lose a piece of our cultural heritage? Would we lose a way of understanding the past? The New York Times article "New Mexico Is Losing a Form of Spanish Spoken Nowhere Else on Earth" explores the decline of the unique Spanish dialect spoken in New Mexico. This dialect, known as New Mexican Spanish, is a is a mix of the Spanish spoken by the original Spanish settlers of New Mexico and the indigenous languages of the region and it has been spoken in the state for over 400 years. New Mexican Spanish is characterized by its use of archaic Spanish words and phrases, as well as its unique pronunciation and grammar and it has been spoken in New Mexico for centuries, but it is now in danger of disappearing. The article cites several factors that are contributing to the decline of New Mexican Spanish. These include the increasing popularity of English, the out-migration of young people from New Mexico, and the lack of educational resources for learning the dialect. The article concludes by calling for efforts to preserve New Mexican Spanish. The author argues that the dialect is a valuable cultural heritage that should be passed on to future generations. #SpanishHeritage #PreservingLanguage #LinguisticLegacy #BilingualCommunity #SpanishInAmerica

Do you remember when we talked about the #languagesindangerofextinction last week? Well, today we bring you the ones that are close to the abyss, the #LeastSpokenLanguagesInTheWorld. - Taushiro: It is spoken in the Amazon region of Peru. According to reports, in 2008 there was only one native speaker of Taushiro left, making it (one of) the most endangered languages in the world. - Tanema is an indigenous language spoken on the Solomon Islands. It is estimated that there is only one native speaker of Tanema at present, indicating a high degree of danger to the survival of this language. - Kaixana: Spoken by the Kaixana community in Brazil, near the Colombian border. It is estimated that there are fewer than ten native speakers of Kaixana today. Let's preserve linguistic diversity! At Norak, we believe in the importance of protecting and revitalizing endangered languages. We are committed to supporting language revitalization projects and promoting diversity in all its aspects. Join us in this important cause and together let's make a difference.

Haitian Creole: A Unique Language 🇭🇹 - Haitian Creole, also known as Kreyòl Ayisyen, emerged from interactions between French colonists and African slaves during the 17th and 18th centuries. - Today, it is one of Haiti's official languages, alongside French. Approximately 95% of Haitians, especially in rural areas, consider Haitian Creole their first language. - This language represents the soul and mind of Haiti itself, reflecting its resilience, history, and identity. Historical Context: From Exploitation to Independence - When Christopher Columbus landed on the island of Hispaniola (which includes present-day Haiti) in 1492, he encountered a kingdom ruled by a Taino Indian chief. - The French arrived in the 17th century, leading to the extermination of the indigenous population. African slaves were then imported to work on plantations. - Haiti, once known as "the pearl of the Antilles," became France's richest colony in the 18th century. - Haitians revolted against French exploitation from 1791 to 1804, resulting in their independence. They renamed their country "Haiti" (or "Ayiti" in Kreyòl) in honor of its Taino heritage.

#origenespañol #Spanishorigin #SpanishLearning #PositiveCommunication #BilingualExpression How Spanish language originated? Let's read below to know briefly............ As per Google;. Spanish originated in vulgar Latin; a spoken version of Latin introduced to Spain by the Romans....... Spanish can be considered a separate language starting in the 13th century when Christian Kingdoms, most notably the Kingdom of Castile reconquered Spain from Muslim rule........ The Spanish language was greatly influenced by the Arabic language and the Reconquista, and regional differences within the Iberian Peninsula still illustrate its complex history........ Following the reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula, Spanish spread through the rapidly expanding Spanish Empire....... Over the next centuries, various differences developed not only between European Spanish and Latin American Spanish, but also between regions in Latin America.......... The complexity of modern Spanish bears witnesses to its complex history of conquests, fractures, expansion, and influence by other cultures............

Can you translate into Bosnian? Of course we can! Bosnian, sometimes referred to as the Bosniak language, is the standardised version of the pluricentric Serbo-Croatian language, primarily spoken by Bosniak ethnic group. Bosnian holds the status of an official language in Bosnia and Herzegovina, alongside Croatian and Serbian. Additionally, it enjoys recognition as a minority language in Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Kosovo. Bosnian employs both Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, with Latin being the more common script in everyday use. This language is distinctive among Serbo-Croatian varieties due to its infusion of Arabic, Persian, and Ottoman Turkish loanwords, which can be attributed to its historical interactions with these cultures through Islamic connections.
