    The topic about the extinction of several languages has stirred a lot of discussion among the general

    public. Among the opinions, there is one suggesting that the disappearance of languages is now crucial
    because they believe the fewer number of languages is the more high-quality life will become. From my
    perspective, I am in disagreement with the given point of view. As to why, languages have a certain
    importance to human’s existence such as maintaining cultural and traditional practices or countries
    development.

    Culture and tradition’s value are abstract and transparent to human so that it needs to be recorded and
    passed down by something, one of which is languages. Indeed, languages are efficient for this work,
    which people use to demonstrate information and spread the news to others. With the use of languages,
    people can store knowledge in books and pass it down for the next generation, additionally, human can
    communicate and understand each other via languages. Thus, countries’ identity could be preserved and
    nurtured throughout the time human living on earth. Henceforth, it is true to say that each extinction of
    a language lose the diversity of country identity, which may also cause the collapse of a society or a ethic
    group, because language is a tool to nurture and protect cultural and traditional practices.

    Furthermore, the disappearance of a language also refrain the development of a country. Owing to the
    fact that the appearance of a language visualizes the country’s identity so that if there are nothing to
    depict or represent for a whole country’s developed period, the country could be isolated and hard to
    recognize. Besides, the disappearance of a language also engage misunderstanding between countries
    because there are not a specific native language to express the right emotions. Henceforth, these
    disadvantages can hold back a country’s development by preventing them from several business
    opportunities.

    In conclusion, though there are some people holding a belief that the extinction of languages is positive,
    my stance is that language such as official or even ethic minority languages should not be eliminated.
    Each individual should response for the existence of a language instead of putting an end to it because
    this work needs more than one effort from people.
