There are over 6,000 languages remaining in the world. Hundreds will be lost within the next generation. The die-off parallels the extinction of plant and animal species. The death of a language robs humanity of ideas, belief systems, and knowledge of the natural world.
Language Matters, a two-hour PBS documentary, asks: What do we lose when a language dies? What does it take to save a language?
