Klingon to Dothraki: Invented languages gain popularity
- The idea of invented languages is not new. People have been trying to create new tongues
- for a long time. One of the most famous examples is Esperanto, created by Ludwik Zamenhof
- in 1887 which he hoped would become __ globally spoken unifying language. The fact that it
- is based on 16 very simple rules and took words from languages already present makes it very
- easy to learn. This was a conscious decision by Zamenhof who hoped that if everyone spoke
- one language, there would be fewer wars and conflicts.
- So far, none of the existing constructed languages has achieved a large number of
- speakers. Klingon, the invented language of Star Trek has around 20-30 speakers. Na’vi, the
- language created for the movie “Avatar” has one fluent speaker, 10 intermediate speakers,
- and over forty novices. Dothraki, which was crafted specifically for __ series Game of Thrones,
- boasts seven intermediate speakers and around a hundred novices. For now, Garadálava has
- exactly one speaker: Fynn Schlemminger himself.
- However Esperanto is a notable exception: it’s estimated that the language has around
- some 1,000 native speakers, and many parents teach it to their children. TV series, movies,
- books, and especially the Internet have given invented languages a chance like never before.
- According to the BBC, Esperanto, which was created almost exactly 100 years ago, is currently
- experiencing a boost, mostly thanks to the language learning app Duolingo, and a highly
- engaged online community. Wikipedia is also available in this language.
- With the amount of time and effort it takes to learn a new language, it is rather unlikely
- that __ invented tongue will achieve world domination in the same way English has. But it is
- clear that there is rising interest in creating new languages. “Yes, there might be more of them
- in the future, or more people will try their hand at it,” said Carpenter.

News trom China
Outcry as Chinese school makes iPads compulsory
Apple produets are incredibly popular in China, but not everyone can afford them A school in northern China has been criticised for enforcing iPad learning as part of its new curriculum, it's reported.
According to China Economic Daily, the Danfeng High School in Shaanxi province recently issued a notice saying that, “as part of a teaching requirement, students are required to bring their own iPad” when they start the new school year in September. Stafftold the paper that using an iPad would “improve classroom efficiency”, and that the school would manage an internet firewall, so that parents would not have to worry about students using the device for other means.
However, China Economic Daily says that after criticism from parents, who felt that it would be an “unnecessary financial burden”, headmaster Yao Hushan said that having an iPad was no longer a mandatory requirement. Mr Yao added that children who don't have a device could still enrol, but that he recommended students bring an iPad as part of a “process of promoting the digital classroom”.
The incident led to lively discussion on the Sina Weibo social media platform. “Those parents that can't afford one will have to sell a kidney!” one user quipped.
Others expressed concerns about the health implications of long-term electronic device use. “I worry about their Vision,” one user said, and another said they would all become “short-sighted and have to wear glasses.”
But others felt that it was a good move in line with new modem ways of teaching. “They are affordable for the average family,” one said, “they don't necessarily need to buy the latest model.”
