Indian Politics and Democracy

The modern tools also allow us to preserve these languages. Sustaining a minor language needs more effort than preserving it. All the literature, a terabyte load of audio of each language should be recorded and saved. Special PhDs should be granted to study in these languages. These are the efforts that will ensure the knowledge and the language itself is preserved and duly studied by the scholars. However the current approach is either way gonna kill our language diversity. Even in KA, MH, TN there are multiple minor languages. They will be killed by the more popular language. These languages eventually will be made irrelevant by English and Hindi. English in professional environment and Hindi for informal communication. Hindi too will die and be replaced by English eventually.

The Language wars in current form i suspect are not aimed at preserving the languages. They are aimed at chipping some of the identitarian votes from a Major National Party. We should seriously start thinking about how to preserve our languages.
I feel all our thinking around languages today is as per the old paradigm. Whichever language is popular is taught which in turn either swallows up the minor languages or erases it .

I thought tools like Google Translate & forthcoming AI , GAI , ML , you name it will render this argument moot. That it's all the more vital to incorporate teaching in one's mother tongue inverting the three language formula with Hindi & English being taught as languages.

In special cases like TN , they're free to pursue what they want for eventually it's their students who'd be at a disadvantage. Then again who wants extra competition .

What needs be done is to get all our Sanskrit scholars together & compile a new dictionary of scientific terminologies which given Panini's excellent Ashtadhyai with its rules on etymology can be easily accomplished.

This then becomes your format for all the Indo Aryan language families. Repeat the exercise for Tamil & that'd serve as a template for the Dravidian languages.

The next goal should be purging the IA languages of FAT - Farsi Arabic & Turkic . Coming up with equivalent words or cognates in some cases isn't an issue. Getting it to become part of people's day to day vocabulary & speaking is . This once again is a multi generational thing .

What we have is a once in a millenium opportunity since AI will change the way we perceive the world at least in so far as communication goes which includes education & entertainment among many other subjects which in turn provides us with the ideal opportunity to train these models.

Alas ! I'm know I'm expecting too much from a government known to contain people which comes from a background that can easily qualify for as anti intellectual .

Evidently I was also wrong in the way the entire debate around the three language formula has unfolded especially in TN . Or perhaps I'm just getting ahead of the myself & the times. Perhaps we'd get there someday. Perhaps....

Govt. taking lead will only open political onslaught by the traitors. We better let the country unify more and wait for these I_Irdu simping Indian traitors to loose political relevance in next 10 years. In meantime we can preserve the knowledge, accent of our vernacular languages and do what you suggested. Today is not the right time. These urdu simps will find a way to create fissures in our society.

I will not like our languages to die either. They are our own and they should be preserved, protected and proliferated. Our languages are our pride. Let us not let the urdu simps hijack it. You have come up with a solid plan. I love it.

You can create the dictionaries I mentioned without any controversy for scientific terminology. That's equally essential if we've to impart basic & advanced scientific knowledge in native languages .

The secondary issue I've mentioned requires either a cultural revolution or a civil war.

Thats are part of preservation aspect. I just had some qualms about teaching not preparation of dictionary. Infact we can even have PhDs in these vernacular studies. Even west studies India via PhDs. Why can't we do it for our vernacular languages. Our central universities should specifically start offering higher education programs to create dictionary, start study of literature in our vernaculur languages etc. Just need to keep the westoids and islamists out from these departments.

I am just saying let us not touch this issue upto Highschool. Let them not be the medium for now. But as you said let us prep them for future suitability as a medium of education too.

The second issue you pointed out will be handled by nationalism. We just need to do what you said at higher education level studies and let it naturally trickle down.
 
Yeah and other parties will do pooja of Hindus right, have to give it to Hindus such a bunch of bin painde ka lota.

:hail:

You can really make out people's political preference when shit hits the fan though.

Yeah true and they talking like Modi has told them we will not do anything after this even when we have history of taking our sweet time and they are behaving like this is the only terror attack we have faced and this is the first time piglets have segregated Hindus, it's always have been that they have killed only Hindus.

And non of these guys have guts to not buy or give work to them, In whatsapp groups people are defending them what they did it's not their faltu.

Then we talk about retaliation here, majority don't even care for the attack, it's only we here are seething.

in fact every statement made by Modi govt pretty much directly telling us that they will do an attack.
Straight from the mouth of Rajnath.

yet...

anyway, it's all part of playing politics I guess and this one is an opportunity for vultures.
