A movie was recently shot in Haida but the actors had to learn their lines word for word from elders. Another west coast language revitalization attemp being made is Squamish, close to the Whistler resort near Vancouver.
Cool. I will need to check that out. Squamish I believe is the language that uses as a symbol for the glottal stop, and that in and of itself is pretty fascinating.
@@christopherellis2663 what made you move to Romania from Australia? Is it because it's cheaper so if you retire there you'd have a lot more money proportional to the local economy?
Very good video! My only request, unreasonable as it may be, is to include audio dialogue samples if you can ever find them. Those always give you the best sense of the language, naturally. But I understand it's probably difficult to find audio samples for many of these small, isolated languages. That said, this is my first time seeing one of your videos, and I've already subscribed! Very good channel it seems.
Not unreasonable at all, people have made the suggestion before. My only problems are what you mentioned, and also copyright. Plus I'm not too sure how to actually edit it in, I'm still not very skilled with my editing, I'm still learning. If you enjoyed this video, check out the part 1 to this video! I hope you enjoy the videos on my channel and welcome!
@@CheLanguages I've done some editing stuff before, this doesn't help with the copyright problem, but what I would do is use some audio recording/editing software, for me, audacity, to record the audio (You might have to edit the input source to your computer's audio output if it's set on your microphone.) and then import it to the video editor, for which I personally use hitflilm express, in which you can just drag the audio into the editor. I'd imagine other software would be similar. Lol, yeah I use all the free software but it works fine for me. Might not really be very helpful advice, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a problem simple advice like that couldn't help with. Your editing seems pretty good already after all. Anyway yeah, I will gladly enjoy your channel. :)
That's the goal, sadly some languages can't be saved however because no one is interested in preserving them. I like to think the isolation of some of these languages will actually help them to be preserved longer
If a language has different dialects then, if those dialects were to grow to the point of becoming mutually unintelligible, wouldn't that create a situation where the language is no longer an isolate but rather a small family?
I'm sorry to hear about that man. Hopefully some language isolates did make it better, are you insured? A friend of mine got mugged recently but his bank was able to fully compensate him, check with your bank so you don't lose too much.
@CheLanguages This is all speculation, but with 1900s structuralism, you know it's been very antithetical towards a lot of truths when it comes to such topics. since before the trail of tears what was once the Mississippians, cherrokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw etc etc personally was thought to have affiliations in the Yucatan Mexico and South America. But in much more recent times, a last tribe knowing this family Ties may have migrated just before the Louisiana purchase fleeing Mexico and whatnot. They may have fanned out some starting in goergia or Bama, then moved on into the French quarter or pushed over.
I was blessed to know my 1890s born great-grandmother and her other peers of the first gen born out of the Civil, many moved in own claiming 350 hectors on the homestead act land claims . These old women ,first-generation black slaves, 3rd gen white Irish, and Chickasaw native would Cann tomatoes and sew quilts because the men share cropped. And i was a kid listening to the old women gossip and that, of course, was one such topic that I found was more widely spread among the south is the connection the Natchez natives had with the Yucatan..
@CheLanguages I can vouch for their gossip being very different than ours today. So much of what those old folks knew was very well educated even from the most impoverished beginnings.
@CheLanguages This same source told me in 1970s about during the nepolianic war that British ancestors were visiting & writing letters home from ottoman empire turkey about the city of Enoch / eden described biblically at the mouth of the tigeris and Euporatis rivers. Of course, gobleki wasn't officially discovered until the 1990s, and it worked to protect the sites by not really letting those rumors spread. "I'd assume." But still, when it comes to the history of nations, people ,,places and things, these old 1700s-1800s classical American sources definitely hold value & benefit for those willing to give them the time of day..
"what are your pronouns?" "well, they're in Laal... so let me get you the table breaking things down. you'll need to remain aware of plural+inanimate emphatic vs. benefactive forms, as well as taking note of varying possessive forms."
@@CheLanguages That definitely should be spoken of! As far as I am familiar with different cases of number borrowings (like Japanese borrowing Chinese numbers alongside with native ones or Kra-Dai replacing native numbers completely by Chinese ones apart from Hlai) Nihali is weird with having only the word for "one" (bidi/bada) native, 2-4 taken from Dravidian and the rest from Hindi (apart from 20 - iso which seems to derive from Korku). I just wonder what it could infer. Maybe yhat proto-Nihalis were hunter-gatherers who, like Piraha for example, knew only one-many distinction, than they met Dravidians, later indo-aryans and Korku? Or maybe sth completely different? Only guesses can be made Also it's so sad that Nihali has so little documentation. Nagaraja's work is the only bigger source I know so far. I also find it quite curious that when speaking about Hindu valley civilization, people tend to refer to Dravidian, even Munda languages, but proto-Nihali seems to be permanently skipped, even though it should be examined as a possibility as well
The grammar bits were pretty cool. And I would like to add that just because pronunciation isn’t perfect, It shouldn’t stop you from trying. You’ll get corrected by someone someday somewhere believe it.
Thank you! I always try to be respectful and try to pronounce things when I can, but some people tend to complain. Of course I won't stop trying. And thank you for the feedback on the grammar!
@@CheLanguages I really like the job you’re doing here, Mr. So what if people complain? I’m just glad I got to know all of these languages and all these new people! I remember when I was barely learning English. It sounded so so cool and I didn’t give up! Even though I still need a little touchup in my punctuation and ideal idea arrangement: I still believe that I got pretty high up there, but it was because I had both the good and the bad perspectives on pronunciation.

Probably not. I've talked about them enough across several videos before. Check out my video on Iberian languages, on Revived languages and my Shorts videos if you want to see them.
I have a question. I have a feeling that french might in next 100 or 200 years develop a tonal system. Why? In the 1000 or so years of its existence this language changed so much and was so reduced that many words sound the same. Though written differently, many words sound the same and usually each word by itself might not be understood without an context. Often it ks clusters of words that are cognitivelly identified rather then individual words. If this trend continues, I guess in next 100 or 200 years french might become dependent on a tonal system so that words can remain indetifiable from their sounding. What do you think? An example: pont (bridge) might lose its nasal sound replaced by a certain tone whereas peau (skin) will have a different tone and peu (little) yet another one.
@@CheLanguagesHard to say! I wish we lived in a world without human limitations because truly every language I stumble upon is deeply interesting and I wish I had the time and memory capabilities to remember in-depth information about every single one. Thank you for these videos
@@CheLanguages No, just looked at the text in the video! Xeteatiun looks like Christian, dios looks like god in Spanish. Also cielo is heaven in Spanish. With three of the first five words such a close match, it can hardly be a coincidence. I also see mundo siempre amen and tiempo.

I disagree, I tried to verify your comment on the Hauve and Nihali sections as struggled to find any plagiarism, other than using images from the huave pages. Edit: On second review, the video appears sourced entirely from Wikipedia, and the narrator even reference Wikipedia by name at some point in the video.
@@SmittyxcTry this then: On the left side of your screen, have a window with the Video playing. On the right side, have the Wikipedia article for Hauve. Some sentences are reworded and others are skipped, but every single thing mentioned in the video is right there in the Wikipedia article--and its all in the same exact order, no less!
@@p00bix I will definitely give it to you that the video is largely inspired by the wiki pages. Hopefully he dug into the actual sources… makes me wonder how many of the video essays I watch are just thinly veiled plagiarism😬
Well first of all, you can't really 'plagarize' a Wikipedia article, it's open for use by anyone. Secondly, there isn't a lot of info about these languages and though I did use some other sources like Omniglot for samples, Wikipedia usually has the most info about these small languages. Unless I pay a ridiculous amount for an Ethnologue account or comb through peer-reviewed articles, I'm not going to get much more info than the Wiki article already has. That being said, I did provide some more info on each language than what is just found on Wikipedia. I try and word things on my own a bit, but sometimes they're already well written. For videos about more well-known languages, I usually have the luxury of providing more info, but here with these languages, there wasn't much else I could do.
No way bro called Chad ‘Central Africa’. Also, real question, why do you always judaize flags? I have nothing against Jews, but you also did this with the Arab league flag, which kinda pissed me, as well as others, off.
I've never used the Arab league flag?! Also, it's a צ for Tchad צ'אד, it's just a letter in a script, doesn't mean it's Judaized (Aramaic also used Hebrew script, which we called Assyrian script btw). I wanted to create a distinction between Tchad and Romania. Also Tchad is basically Central Africa. It literally borders the Central African Republic, and it's definitely not North African culturally speaking
@@CheLanguages Not the Arab league flag I mean, but an arab flag. Yes, Chad is Central African, but not the Central African Republic. People can get very confused. Also, Chad is kinda culturally North African, especially the North. Over 60% of the population is Muslim and speaks Arabic. They have a unique group of Arabic dialects called ‘Chadian Arabic’ which are very similar to the dialect of Alexandria, for some reason.
