A Forgotten Wave of Extinction May Have Erased Thousands of Human Languages
Photo: (Yale University/Wikimedia) Around 7,500 spoken and signed languages are used worldwide today. Yet this extraordinary diversity may represent only a fraction of the linguistic richness humanity once possessed. A new modeling study published in Science suggests language diversity reached a forgotten golden age between 1,000 and 3,000 years ago, when tens of thousands of languages may have coexisted. What followed was a dramatic decline that appears to have begun long before European […] -

The lost golden age of #languageDiversity
New modelling suggests that tens of thousands of #languages were spoken between 1,000 and 3,000 years ago - and that their decline began well before European colonial expansion -

Isolated populations are genetically less diverse but linguistically more diverse. A new PNAS study documents an inverse global correlation between genetic and structural linguistic diversity, and the signal is stronger than climate or terrain. #linguistics #populationgenetics #languagediversity https://www.anthropology.net/p/where-languages-diverge-most-genomes

Happy #WorldRomaLanguageDay! 💜
Romani (rromani ćhib) is an Indo-Aryan language with great internal diversity, spoken by over 4.6 million people across Europe. Major dialects include Vlax, Balkan, and Sinte Romani, plus many local varieties shaped by contact with other languages.
Its diversity reflects Roma journeys through centuries of movement and adaptation. Honoring this richness means honoring Roma identity.
