Vanishings Languages.

from ADNER · host Adner Delhomme

Estimating the number of Languages spoken in the past is difficult. .Unlike extinct animals, dead languages seldom leave fossils, most lack writing systems. Cautious estimates based on known rates of languages development suggest that more than 10,000 languages once existed. As cultural diversity decreased , the number dropped. Linguists project that most endangered languages, will be extinct by the year 2100 .if they are right ,thousands of languages are doomed.
