Awesome. It's nice to see people put that much effort into immortalizing culture.
Some 7000 languages are spoken around the world today. Studies show that one language disappears every two weeks. Language is not simply a set of words that are used for people to communicate. A language is the full expression of a group’s social identity. It is the vehicle by which human beings express their thoughts, myths and values. When an ancient tongue disappears, elders carry to their grave part of humanity’s culture and knowledge. Ethnonomad
Garifuna is a very interesting language. James Lovell is my old roommate from when I lived in Bushwick! Heck, I saw him early this morning!
Ngó'hto bê mu tá! Zorionà! Kunsta tôk polhta hõ! 👍
Name of the song in the beginning plox.
Seriously tha sounded pretty cool.
Nayka wawa ixt lalang uk wik-saya hilu twax... I speak a language (tongue) that not far away no light will be! Wik nayka tiki ukuk pi pus kakwa nayka munk pus tilixam +aska kəmtəks nayka lalang. I not want that/this and thusly (therefore/for that reason) I make for people they know my language(tongue)! Munk pus kanawi ukuk lalang mi+ayt _ush. Make for/that all the languages (tongues) to be (to sit) good!
@AlexisLorraine i think i knew someone who had something like that. She pushes her tongue against he front teeth, especially while asleep and so she pushes her front teeth out of alignment. That metal piece keeps her tongue from reaching up that high. It's annoying and unfortunate.
Thank you human geo teacher for making me waste my time on this
what the heck is that in her mouth at 1:13?
Interesting video even though it's 11 years old! (2022)
Why not just have these people read the dictionary and translate one by one, besides all this phrase research? Perhaps with a dictionary a computer program can be written
John Appleman some words don’t directly translate into english
@SaMsEqKrew
yes.. YES!
Wonderful! What's on his oldest daughters teeth?
awesome. languages truly are dying breeds..
@AlexisLorraine pretty sure that's a thing to make you stop sucking your thumb, my cousin had something like that a long time ago, so I may be wrong
@SaMsEqKrew Yep. All the alien races in the universe most likely speak English as well, so it would be wise to learn it or you'll be at a disadvantage when they invade us.
@SaMsEqKrew Are you seriousing me? I hope you're joking.

There is no God. Boom, what now.
