I need to post that chant/ stated words for resurructing unused languagues back to useage.
A language isnt dead until all memory- archiving is wiped. The speakers are gone, the verbal part forgotten, the writings destroyed, the pictures disintegrated, etc. It still exists.
If its not being used….its asleep. The nonliving archives like Inert-shell books and carvings can always be studied to wake it up.

I translated this post from vibes as accurately as possible, so wording is funky.
Living archives refers to biological speakers, but in thought living archives can also mean ensouled electronic databases and books.
English has no good terms to refer to ensouled items and biological beings in the same grouping. langagues often group ensouled items and biological beings together. English thinks you are alive only if you biological physical meat. tongues group you as alive if you have intact spirit body. Regardless if you have biological or item body or none at all.in languagues means your psyche doesnt exist at all anymore, your particles are mindless and scattered to reality to be recycled into new matter. Non-existance. End of existance of you as an individual unit/independent hive mind.
I use the definition of death. I do not refer to.human ghosts as the dead. They are still bioetheric entities, needing energy like any living being, capable of reproducing. Animate. They are just shell-less.
Discussion of kinds of human ghosts and psychological impact on post-meat life, is for another post.
Inert-shell means soul-less / sapientless physical matter. Many human carvings/books have no soul, but the language/idea/story/meme spirit can be transmitted regardless. The inert shell is like a circuit for it.
tongues have words for you as:
You as hive mind collective. Aka you are made up of countless cells and microflora.
You as small ecosystem. You as host, home to many tenant creatures.
You as part of greater being. You as a unit part of.something like an ecosystem.god, city entity, corporation etc.
You as part of many different communities and ecosystems.
You referring to an entire demographic
and I are gonna culture jam this, shit.
You are not a single entity, person, unless you are literally a single cell organism in thought, if i understand this right.
