RE: THE YOUNGEST LANGUAGE IN THE WORLD? DIE ANTWOORD IS AFRIKAANS!

in #travel7 years ago

Nice text, it was a pleasure to read it! But, as a linguist, I must oppose to calling Afrikaans as the youngest language of the world. Even in Europe, You can find Macedonian (codified in mid 40s), Kashubian (eventually declared a language few decades ago), not even mentioning Montenegrin, which is, maybe, still in statu nascendi, being declared as an independent language in 2007 :)

Sort:  

Afrikaans is one of the youngest languages in the world.

as it's written in the text if one manages to read more than a title, hehehehe:)

Sure ;) But the title is a little bit misleading ;)

hmmm, ok might be ;P I also want to draw peoples attention ;)
