There are 7,000 languages spoken across the world.

Yet 80% of the population speaks just 1.1% of the languages, and 43% of the languages are endangered.

What happens when they die out?

In today's episode we cover:

• How people feel differently when speaking different languages • The 12 'dominant' world languages • Why have certain languages dominated? • Why do languages die out? • When the last two speakers of a language hate each other • Dying languages in the UK • Hawaiian - a revival success story • Reviving a dead language • Written vs. oral languages • Should we save languages? • Why language is a part of culture
