English is the language of opportunity why bother to teach indigenous languages?
2 answers
Indigenous languages preserve and communicate the indigenous culture, history, customs, etc. Indigenous languages are essential to the local culture, the family, the community. To communicate with other communities, cultures, etc., a common language is necessary (and English is the most common international/intercultural language).
Do you think local culture is important to the people whose culture it is? Or should it be abandoned? What is your opinion?
