The continents where the threat is greatest are Oceania and America, and in Brazil, 190 languages are endangered, in Mexico 144, Colombia 68 and 62 Peru. The disappearance of languages is increasingly more accelerated, complained Haboud, which attributed to globalization, because villages that were previously isolated are now practically living in all the modernity, so overwhelming. More than external pressures to impose a language, communities often leave their own language due to a desire to integrate into mainstream society and have better economic prospects, according to experts. Many times people don’t realize the value of the indigenous language, because he thinks that it is somewhat delayed in a modern world, explained Mithun. However, leave behind entails a loss of identity, according to the linguist, who emphasized that the solution is for the new generation to learn both languages. Children mohawk who know English and mohawk are much more successful in both worlds, do not have an antagonistic stance toward foreign culture, explained Mithun, who emphasized that according to numerous studies the bilingualism improves the performance of students in all subjects, not only in languages. Such a strategy is that also follow the indigenous achuar in Ecuador, according to Sumpinanch Celestino Aij Tuntuam, teacher of 27 years of the Amazon community of Kupit.

We maintain, valuing culture and tradition, clothing, we speak Spanish, but we don’t forget achuar, said in Quito Jia Tuntuam, who was dressed with a headdress with feathers and a large necklace, and wore the face painted with black feline mode lines. All residents in your community speak achuar, Spanish half and a 20% shuar, explained. There are only 2,500 speakers of achuar and shuar 35,000 in all Ecuador. A language can disappear very, very quickly. One might think that there are a lot of speakers, but they are all the same age, and There comes a time that is lost, and when you lose there is no way to recover it, he warned Mithun.

Generally considered the creators as Apollonian beings when everyday and normal are stabs in the back, he says. Writers and other creators should work in the same way that makes it a revolvedor of cement, a waiter or a saleswoman of flowers, said the Mexican Antonio Ortuno, who has earned the film in his latest novel to recreate everyday betrayals that exist in the artistic medium. Generally considered the creators as Apollonian beings, with great conceptual problems, existential doubts when everyday and normal are gashes by back, nudges, grapple, compromises that are there. It seems to me that we must talk about that suddenly, explains Ortuno. Journalist and writer, the author of Anima says much distrust of people who do not work, and again in his work places the protagonists in the Tagus pure and simple. A Don Quixote without a hair of Holy a Mexican youth group dedicated to very minority animated film suffers unspeakable to fulfil the commitments made with the producers and survive.

The computer directs him the Animal, someone who does things because he likes to make them even though you know that it does not have the tools and maybe not even the conditions to do so, a sort of Don Quixote without a hair of Holy. Personal experiences the novel is neither confessional nor was conceived as a settling of scores against the glamour of the seventh art. It is not in any way an autobiographical book, but yes retrieves certain personal experiences, said the novelist, who before devoting himself to letters worked on an animation studio with filmmaker Guillermo de el Toro. The story contains a story about friendship, competition, loyalty and disloyalty, with a great influence of Mark Twain. TWAIN adopts this aspect of style to have terrible things but naturally, in a way that even depressing things are suggestive, and recover youth without over-stating it, without idealizing it, present it as this thing essentially fresh and dangerous it is. Prize Herralde de Novela by human resources (2007) finalist, Anima is his third novel after the award-winning, the search engine’s heads (2006). Ortuno is also the author of two books of short stories, the Japanese Garden (2006) and Lady red (2010). * You can buy your books on PopularLibros source of the news: Antonio Ortuno located the Anima characters in “tajo pure and hard”
