Every year several languages die out. Some people think that this is not important because life will be easier if there are fewer languages in the world.

To what extend do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Unquestionably, language diversity is being minimized in number since a certain number of languages are vanishing annually. Impact of this trend is a subject of intense debate. Some people contend this as positive primarily because it might lead to easiness in communication. Yet to the best of my knowledge, language diversity is crucial and the motives will be analyzed below.

While doing justice to the main reasons for urgency of language diversity, one should not block out the fact that it is directly interacted and goes hand in hand with habitual and regular lifestyles of people. Indisputably, an indigenous language mainly entails lots of valuable cultural heritage. They are passed down from one generation to another. Accordingly, minimization of language diversity will place those aboriginal cultures at the edge of extinction.

Another major justification – for assessing language diversity as a priority – might be rooted in the long-term side effects of shrinking variety of language types. Initially, it will directly lead sameness in one’s life. A key explanation can be reflected by the increasing cultural homogeneity due to degradation of language diversity. Older generations, meanwhile, will be confronted the absence of valuable cultural heritage which are generally required to be inherited by their offspring.

In the light these facts outlined above, one can conclude that language variance is vital albeit there is a stereotype focusing on potential convenience of language minimization. Since language diversity implies flourishing and coexistence of cultures, fading away of languages should not be marked as a positive trend.
