The language situation in India is a mess. You can't even tell Urdu and Hindi are the same language. The best thing to do is just drop all those tribal languages and embrace a superior European language.

Why do all Indian OPs post such long sentences conjunct like as an essay?
they are so intelligent.

Indians have this really crude mindset of "practicality", as we often put it, that bulldozes through any greater conception of cultural heritage. As a result we have huge issues with self esteem on a collective level.

It's quite sad as there's generations of desis out there, regardless of class, that has no proper grasp on any one language to the extent that they can hold abstract conversations or even express themselves properly. It's a staggering cultural and educational failure that nobody gives a fuck about since we're churning out office monkeys and running behind western development models and culture with no brakes.

yeah - that is a huge problem indeed.
It's nice for people to know english so we can all communicate, travel, educate etc, but it's also very important to keep English contained to some extent.
It's a secondary language for niche uses. Treat it as such.

>>71656569
Being able to speak a lingua franca is what allow you to open yourself to the world. I might be wrong but your overpopulation seem to be a consequence of a very low education through a national level. If more and more people are able to speak english there will be a rise of the average educational level and will lead at some point to cure what you've called social ills above.

Linguistic diversity serves no purpose anymore. It never did, really. It just segregates people into groups. We've overcome barriers imposed on us by geography. And we should start breaking down self-created cultural barriers as well.

Maybe in Norway. Only 15 percent of worlds population speak English to ANY degree, only 25 percent in Slovakia. Go outside of your Scandi bubble, most people have no desire no live with random foreigners, most people speak their mother tongue in their daily life. Slovak society never really accepted any other people than Slovaks, Czechs and partially Hungarians, Rusyns and other whites.

That's unfortunately kinda true in a number of sectors.
Up until now the way knowledge would propagate was through professors that studied abroad. Then they would write (or translate) books in their own language and often fuck up various things in the way.
That was painfully slow and inefficient.

I think we should all embrace english as the de facto communication language in science and technology. It's good to publish in your own language, but always publish in english too.

Isn't this already more or less the case, perhaps with the exception of China?

>>71661883
If Slovak, spoken by 5 million people, managed to get a mature technological vocabulary then any language can. We had the advantage of importing words from Czech through, which is very similiar anyways and these words were quickly nativized or even adopted as they are, they do not stand out like other loanwords due to linguistic proximity.

I am writing my diplomas thesis on philosophy and law and we certainly have all the words we need. We have far less loanwords than English. English is actually one of the loanword heaviest languages.

>>71661883
>I think we should all embrace english as the de facto communication language in science and technology.

So you want the word to become a homogenous boring mess?

>A world where everyone speaks English is extremely convenient. There are no disadvantages to it.

Each language influences your thought slightly. I feel almost like a different person when speaking English. You would be robbing the word of uniqueness that enriches it. Hell, I am Slovak and Czech is almost the same, yet it is different enough that some Czech songs would just sound WRONG in Slovak and vice versa. You view language as just a robotic means of communication while it is much more. Poetry in one language cannot be really translated into another.

Fuck your utopia.

It's sad that all the languages in India are getting replaced with English. At least, all regions should have their own language.
