Bonjour mes amours !
Notre célébration hier soir de la « Journée internationale de la langue maternelle » a été bien reçue, et on s'est très bien amusé à partager les langues dont on se sert. Il nous a fait du bon de nous rappeler les vrais bénéfices de notre diversité linguistique ! 😄

Two elder women stand on a grassy mall on a sunny day, with brick buildings and palo verde and mesquite trees behind them. They are holding up a sign with the logo for the American Indian Language Development Institute, and the phrase: 'Nau yahiwa'apo', translated as 'the place where people gather' or 'Student Union' in Hiaki/Yaqui.
people gathering on a grassy mall with palm trees, the concrete walkway is covered in chalk writing in Turkish, Arabic, Navajo, Bengali (I Think), and other languages.
A young woman is speaking into a microphone as others listen, outdoors on a grassy mall with palm trees and brick buildings in the background. There's a tent with tables underneath that have signs written in Hopi, Yaqui, and O'odham, and table cloths with the 'University of Arizona Department of Linguistics' written on them.
It was a lovely celebration today on the University of Arizona mall, for International Mother Language Day. We were fortunate that two Yaqui/Hiaki elders came by and checked our signage to for correctness. They approved!

📚 Circa il 45% delle 7.000 lingue stimate è in pericolo di estinzione. Solo poche centinaia sono incluse nell’istruzione, e meno di cento sono utilizzate digitalmente. La perdita delle lingue porta alla scomparsa del patrimonio culturale e intellettuale.

📚About 45% of the estimated 7,000 languages are endangered. Only a few hundred are included in education, and fewer than a hundred are used digitally. The loss of languages results in the disappearance of cultural and intellectual heritage.
