Some Tibeto-Burman examples
David Bradley | La Trobe University
Language endangerment confronts many Tibeto-Burman (TB) languages. This paper provides a general typology of methods for reclaiming such languages, using TB examples where possible, and discusses the problems which may arise. This is followed by a case study of one such endangered language, Gong in Thailand, and attempts for its reclamation.
Keywords: language endangerment, Gong, language reclamation
