Title: | Two perceptions of endangeredness | |
Abstract: | The paper contrasts two perceptions of a language being "endangered". On the one hand, there are the academic and administrative definitions of various stages of "endangeredness" - on the other hand, there are the perceptions of the speakers themselves.
The paper illustrates such differences with samples from the survey of little-known languages of Ethiopia. The focus however, will be on the status of Beja, a N.E. African "major" language which constitutes a "minority" in three countries. | |
