Question 10
I think that all languages should be preserved and saved from extinction. Losing a language is losing a culture. Language is a huge part of any culture and having that language gone destroys that cultural. For example, Latin is considered a dead language if that language is lost think of all the history that will go with it. The only way a language can be lost is when it goes with people is death or the original language evolves and changes overtime. Also if the language is gone how would it be possible to understand texts from that culture and how they communicated. Yes languages do die overtime and it's simply because it wasnt needed or a culture was influence by other culture which proved dominate. The only way to preserve it is to have texts transalting and and guides to Learning that language.

I agree that language is a huge part of any culture so that it is preserved and saved from extinction. While Korea was under Japanese rule, one thing that ancestors did was preventing Korean from extinction. The reason is that ancestors thought they might lose everything if they stop using Korean. In language, I believe, there are more than words: culture, science, emotion, and influence.
