Anyone new to Australia can appreciate how important it is to keep your mother tongue alive. Language is integral to your culture and Australia's Indigenous languages are no different, connecting people to land and ancestral knowledge. They reflect the diversity of Australia’s First Nations peoples. More than 100 First Nations languages are currently spoken across Australia. Some are spoken by only a handful of people, and most are in danger of being lost forever. But many are being revitalised. In today’s episode of Australia Explained we explore the diversity and reawakening of Australia’s First languages. - Ang wika ay isang mahalagang bahagi ng kultura, at hindi naiiba rito ang mga katutubong wika ng Australia—dahil ang mga ito ay nag-uugnay sa mga tao sa kanilang lupain at sa kaalamang ipinasa ng kanilang mga ninuno. Ipinapakita rin ng mga wikang ito ang pagkakaiba-iba ng mga First Nations peoples ng Australia. Sa kasalukuyan, mahigit 100 First Nations languages pa rin ang ginagamit sa buong bansa.
