Language: Dead or Alive

Not yet dead end..

Salam

I used to write in English back than when I was studied at University. It’s like ages ago.
I am really sorry if you found any grammatical error during reading this entry.

Yes.

The only way to enhance and sharpen your English is by reading and writing. Same goes to Math and the entire calculation subject. Understand first, than practice the exercises. That’s the rule. That’s the only path.

Me myself, as involving in educational field sometimes rarely use English in daily conversation except for teaching in front of the class or when delivering notes to students. They once told me to translate it back in Bahasa. Sometimes I did it. But most of the time, they need to do it by themselves.

That’s what we call learning, dear!

I’ve been read a book (cannot recall what’s the title) but the fact that really makes me shocked was..

‘Everyday, there is a language that will ‘dead’ from our world’

Its sounds so funny right ain’t ridduculus to believe.
But trust me; there is a truth beneath it.

I didn’t want to tell you which language consider vanish from this world but there is a little responsibility for us to protect our own. Cynical isn’t it. I am Malay and here I am writing on ‘protecting our Bahasa’ in English Language. I think there’s nothing wrong with it though. As you Malay out there still using it (Bahasa) right, spell it right, I think it is not a big deal anyway.

If you found anything on our language that has been adapted from other languages, don’t scream out and simply urging of so called ‘pollution’.

Learn the truth. Language; just like many other matters in this world that needed an evolution.

Are you really sure that our own Malay language hasn’t adapted from others?

PS: I am not linguistics here. But I love study so many historical matters, involving humans:)

english sendiri pun dah makin hilang keaslian dia bila dah diasimilasikan dengan german, french ngan latin. bahasa melayu lak banyak pengaruh dari sanskrit, arab dan english.

tp nak kata bahasa tu akan 'mati' tu mungkin kedengaran agak redundant. berevolusi mungkit perkataan yang lebih sesuai.

jadi, buku yang ko baca tu agak melodramatic, bagi aku. melebih2 orang kata.

Faizal Sulaiman said...

avid gunner--->betul gak tu bro. aku lebih setuju gunakan perkataan evolusi berbanding mati.tapi how about bahasa yg dah jarang org guna mcm jawa..aku rasa sebab penggunaannya kurang meluas
