Don't neglect the UK's indigenous languages

Why the UK can, and should, make space for our indigenous minority languages.

The ten languages indigenous to the British Isles and still spoken today are English, Scots, British Sign Language, Welsh, Gaelic, Irish, Cornish, Manx, Angloromani and Shelta.

Signal boost for this! It’s the same in France. Most of french people don’t even know that their country is originally - and still is - a multilingual country. 

Yes,  Occitan, Catalan, Breton, Gallo, Flamand, Picard, Basque etc are still spoken. But France refuses to sign the European charter for minority languages. Good job destroying the cultural patrimony that we are so proud of.

“To say there is no worth in learning a language that isn’t economically useful is like saying there’s no point in being friends with somebody unless they’re going to help you get a better job. It’s a spectacular, cynical miss of the point. It’s also inaccurate.”

“Misgendering: An Analogy” by Bishakh Som

[pingnova]

this is a good analogy, I’ve been explaining cis people for awhile that someone’s pronouns are how you refer to them when you don’t use their name, and you wouldn’t refer to someone by another name just because of how they look, so names and pronouns are related in my head anyway

we joke and jest but there’s literally nothing more ‘monkey brain’ than the primal urge to climb things

[valtsv]

me: *sees any tall structure with features that i could use to scale it*

monkey brain: CLIMB. ASCEND. SCURRY UP THE BOUGHS OF THIS TREE AND FIND A SUITABLE VANTAGE POINT TO STRATEGICALLY SURVEY YOUR SURROUNDINGS.

[valtsv]

me: alright, i’m up. now how do i get down?

monkey brain: use tail to maintain balance and JUMP!

me: we don’t have a tail, remember? we evolved beyond it.

monkey brain:

[valtsv]

sometimes i just lose my fucking mind and afterwards i’m like “what the fuck is wrong with me…why am i Like This™” and the answer is always the moon

[valtsv]

me: *goes absolutely feral for a few days*

me: why the hell did i do that *checks the lunar calendar and sees the moon’s up to some freaky shit again* ah

[valtsv]

literally i LOVE the moon but like is she almost done…like is it over…being unhinged 24/7 like this is so. Exhausting
