Especially trying to ruffle inter scaldes your hair some highlights: illiteracy (song Numgaudis: "That we are, and will remain Lithuanian-speaking countries - is indisputable., However, whether we will remain a nation Lithuanian writes - on an already Lithuania louder comes" (1)), disrespect, love lack of speech, language, system collapse (Irena Andrukaitienė: Full nation forces us into our language to let their language systems, forcing be ashamed that we are Lithuanians, that we are Lithuania (2)), borrowed vocabulary (Romuald as Agent: "Some I užkliuvusių words: regulations, licenses, expertise, priorities, autonomy, indications, alternatives, confidentiality, prevention (3)), writing the names of foreigners, especially in Lithuanian passports (George W. Bush, or George W. Bush).
Here I would like to talk to a more general topic - Lithuanian language disappear? Well, as soon as it is clear that fade, but much more difficult to predict inter scaldes - when? No one knows the exact answer - and maybe better, because if they knew it would mean that close to extinction.
Linguists have developed a variety of theories to describe the so-called language death. Frenchman Louis-Jean Calvet (4), which refer to the distribution, inter scaldes rather afraid of the word death (the body language is not a cessation of the biological inter scaldes functions of the finding), but without it, and not do. Calvet mini at least three languages exit types.
The first type would be the disappearance of the transformation. Languages change over a long period inter scaldes of time becomes recognizable, sometimes acquires a new name, becoming another - for example, the Latin language was transformed into Italian, inter scaldes French, Catalan, Romansh and others. languages. Such a collapse is only conditional - in other wrapping we can say that in Latin tebekalbama only the changed just renamed įvairiaip otherwise. Language has not disappeared, but has evolved dramatically and its branches took root in other names. inter scaldes
Lithuanian language, appeared in just about the V-VI century BC - around the time she stood out from the eastern Baltic inter scaldes Proto. Over the next century Lithuanian language has changed considerably, there emerged dialect and now know the standard (common) language from the Power Aukstaitians quite difficult to understand each other Mosėdis Samogitians.
The third type is the change the usually dominant language, hiding the dominuojamąją. Here again fit the Latin example inter scaldes (only the other way round for the first) - the fact that the Latin language and the emergence inter scaldes of new consumption disappeared earlier in the territories (Etruscan, after, etc.)., Certifies that anos language disappeared, been absorbed, they by the Latin versions.
There is a very strict boundaries between these three types. But through them convenient to think of the Lithuanian language in the world. For example, the Lithuanian language extinction of transformation may seem remote, although we should note that these aircraft and electronics era language change is faster than when the mapping Lithuania did not have to. The Lithuanian language speakers išsibaigimo inter scaldes strictly įspėjinėjami immigrants, especially those who buys bags right now. The Lithuanian language change is depicted as a defeat for the other languages - not so much Russian as in English.
First Transformation. Lithuanian language evolved, but slower than most other Indo-European languages. In general, when talking about a special Lithuanian language archaic, often have in mind not only the Lithuanian language features, but also the Baltic parent approaching the Indo-European times.
Lithuanian language, appeared in just about the V-VI century inter scaldes BC - around the time she stood out from the eastern Baltic Proto. Over the next century Lithuanian language has changed considerably, there emerged dialect and now know the standard (common) language from the Power Aukstaitians quite difficult to understand each other Mosėdis Samogitians. Although we do not know what happened modifications, although we do not know how our language is actually called VI, VII, and X or a., But in the present position inter scaldes if we ignore the changes and design language, the same one - Lithuanian - name.
Similarly, the stable and the English name of the projection. From the fifth century. middle of the so-called Anglo-Saxon (Old English) existed inter scaldes until the eleventh century. the center. Although old, but still in English nepametusi identity. Old English, created the poem "Beowulf" grammar and lexicon radically differ from the current English of old had many limbs were structurally more similar to the Lithuanian even than the current English. Some lexical historians argue that the current English speech is about 99 percent. debt, and only 1 percent. - Inherited the old words. Any native speaker of English user without special training can not understand the old English.
In fact, one can say that the Old English language was completely different than today. As a Latin developed in French, as the old English language - the current one. Only, unlike the Latin French, English name is kept the same. Therefore the French language inter scaldes as a symbol of a culture can serve since the ninth century. (In French prisons
