But the United Nations guesses that about half of these languages are in danger of disappearing.One organization seeking to save world languages is Wikitongues. It has a simple goal: to provide the tools and support that people need to save their languages. When a language disappears, many other things can go away as well. For example, parts of a communitys(社区的)culture. knowledge and identity can also be lost.Because of this, Udell. co-founder of Wikitongues. believes the process of bringing languages hack must be done by community members themselves. he said. There is no way an outside organization can save someones language for them.”Wikitongues was started in 2016 as an open Internet collection of world languages. The self-described community is operated by volunteers from around the world. The collection is in the form of language videos that people speaking the languages add to the Wikitongues website.Udell says saving languages does count. There are many examples of languages that disappeared but later returned to use. Hebrew went extinct(灭绝的)in the 4th century BC, and was revived(复兴)in the 1800s. Now once again，its the mother tongue of half of the worlds Jewish population.”Another example is a Native American tribe. The tribes language went extinct in the 1940s. But the tribe was able to successfully build up a language recovery in recent years.One of Wikitongues volunteers is Theron Kolokwe. who lives in Namibia. His native language is Subiya. which is spoken by about 30.000 people.I want the world to know about my language,” Kolokwe said. But his goal goes beyond just sharing his language with others through video. He is also working to create a dictionary and language teaching materials that can be used in schools.1、What does Udell consider important in saving languages?AGathering language information.BRelying on the language speakers.C
