Why and how are languages dying?
Where communities cannot thrive, their languages are in danger. When languages lose their speakers, they die.
Some have also used the terms "language murder" and "language sui-cide," suggesting that languages do not die natural deaths. They are instead murdered. English, as Glanville Price put it, is a "killer language." Thus, it has been said that Irish, for instance, was murdered by English. Others, however, have in effect put the blame on Irish by saying that the language committed suicide.
