While the studies acknowledge the threat of losing languages in an unprecedented way, they focus on cases that show resilience and explore paths to sustainable progress. The articles are also intended as a celebration of the 25 years' work of the Foundation for Endangered Languages, and as a parting gift to FEL's founder and quarter-century chair, Nick Ostler.</P> <P>This book will be informative for researchers, instructors, and specialists in the field of endangered languages. The book can also be useful for university graduate or undergraduate students, and language activists.</P> 606 $aForeign Language Study$2bisacsh 606 $aLanguage Arts & Disciplines / Linguistics / Historical & Comparative$2bisacsh 606 $aLanguage arts 615 7$aForeign Language Study 615 7$aLanguage Arts & Disciplines / Linguistics / Historical & Comparative 615 0$aLanguage arts. 676 $a306.44 702 $aMoseley$b Christopher 702 $aDerhemi$b Eda 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831805103321 996 $aEndangered Languages in the 21st Century$94130098 997 $aUNINA
