Language and Power
“Language decline and language death always occur in
bilingual and multilingual contexts in which a
‘majority’ language - that is, a language with greater
political power, privilege and social prestige – comes
to replace the range of functions of a ‘minority’
language. The inevitable result is that speakers of
the minority language ‘shift’ over time to speaking
the majority language.”

“A process during which a language gradually recovers
the formal functions it lost and at the same time
works its way into those social sectors, within its own
territory, where it was not spoken before.”
