Should we rescue endangered languages?
|
It's probably likely that local populations will go on speaking their language and that (probably) English will be used as the second language. As Chuck says, Mandarin is just too difficult. I read somewhere that it takes 18 years to learn properly!
In Barcelona, for example, people speak Catalan at home and Spanish at school. |
