| 520 | |a Every two weeks, a human language disappears. Within a century, 50 to 90 percent of all languages will be gone. Does it matter? Linguist Florian Lionnet of Princeton University emphatically believes it does. For years, he's been documenting Láàl, a language spoken by only 700 people living in two villages on the banks of the Moyen-Chari River, in Southern Chad. Language encodes culture and worldviews, and each time a language disappears, we lose an irreplaceable part of humanity. This film follows Lionnet as he accompanies villagers during their daily activities--fishing, carving a dugout canoe, dancing, and telling stories. He listens in on conversations, asks questions about vocabulary and grammar, and diligently records everything.Láàl may be the villagers' mother tongue, but most--including children--are fluent in at least five languages. | ||
