Official approaches often prioritise minority-language civic promotion while ignoring the social demise of minority vernacular, native-speaking communities. Under current circumstances, this will degenerate into language promotion as minority vernacular communities disappear.

Al núm. 331 de la @RevistaCat, #LaLlenguaEnJoc @ConchurOG acaba el seu article així: "Si tenim la voluntat de mantenir la diversitat lingüística al planeta, el destí de les comunitats gaèliques s'hauria d'estudiar amb detall." Tenim aquesta voluntat?

Gràcies de nou @RevistaCat! As many aspects of the evasive official and academic thinking contributing to the societal collapse of #Gaelic communities prevail in other European minority-language contexts, it is only a matter of time before they face a similar sociolinguistic fate

Mercès per ser-hi! La situació del gaèlic és un avís per la nostra llengua. Trobareu l'article d'en Conchúr a "La llengua en joc"

Eskerrik asko, @ArantxaIraolaA "O Giollagainen arabera, hizkuntza politiketan ikuspegi «postestrukturalista» bat gailendu da sarri; «neoliberalismoaren» irizpideetan ditu horrek zimenduak, eta komunitateek berez dituzten beharrizanak ahantzi egin dira" bit.ly/47gIoaF

Eskerrik asko, @begotxuo Thanks for posting and drawing attention to the official and academic denial of the societal collapse of the remaining #Gaelic/#Irish vernacular communities. #Gaeltacht #Gàidhealtachd #GaelicCrisis #Arnasguneak2025 #Euskara @ThinkUHI

Irlandako lezioa ikasiko? @ConchurOG, Eskoziako Highlands eta Irlandako Unibertsitateko ikerlariak zer pentsatua eman du: 100 urtetako Hizkuntza Politikaren ondoren gaelikoa hilzorian dago arnasguneetako hiztunen beharrak kontuan ez izateagatik. #Arnasguneak2025

"... we observe how the critical issues of language attrition and the societal contraction of the Gaelic vernacular communities in the Gaeltacht/Gàidhealtachd has been simply ignored or largely evaded in both academic and policy circles" from my #Arnasguneak2025 presentation

"Encouraging a focus on the societal dimensions of Ethnolinguistic Vitality is a much-needed first step to reinstitute the prioritisation of vernacular concerns in minority-language policy and planning" from my contribution to #Arnasguneak2025 this Thursday #Euskara #GaelicCrisis
