Here is an article I found and used for my paper that discusses why endangered languages should be preserved and at what cost. It’s a very interesting article and it’s helpful for the final paper.

This chapter discussed global Englishes and the factors that influence how different versions of English are perceived including language imperialism and the debate about learning a ‘standard English’ or a variety of Englishes.
Discussion Questions:
What are the two models of learning English and their implications?
Does linguistic insecurity occur in other languages?
What are the political implications of language imperialism for English? Have some areas already reached a certain threshold of language imperialism (English) internationally, such as politics?
