Insecurities about Language: The Death of Language Introduction
Description
Welcome to the Insecurities about language podcast: The Death of Language. In this episode I am going to talk about: what is this, where did it come from, what are my goals with this topic, and I will define what does the Death of Language within families mean to me!
And so the overall goal of this segment or topic is to talk about and answer the question: What does the death of language within families mean to you? And you may think that this is an obvious question, or you’re like what does she mean or what does she want to hear, or maybe you have to think about it for a moment, and really there is no right or wrong answer to this question. Really the question is to get you to think about yourself, your family, someone you know, the language and culture you immersed yourself in, or maybe the literal death of language. The languages that are dying because its not being past down from generation to generation, not being taught, spoken, not being recognized or respected.
The death of language came from me deciding what I wanted to do with this podcast and having conversations with my mom and thinking about how diverse we are and how like we don’t speak no other language besides English. And so, I have 2 main questions that come from this topic, its WHAT HAPPENED? And WHY?
