Some people think governments should spend money on measures to save languages with few speakers from dying out completely. Others think this is a waste of financial resources. Discuss both view and give your opinion.

Languages with few speakers carry histories, identities and ways of seeing the world, but governments must decide whether preserving them is a public responsibility or an unaffordable cultural luxury. I believe public money should be spent on saving endangered languages, provided the measures are practical, community-led and proportionate.
