Was Dickens prescient?
"A person who can't pay gets another person who can't pay to guarantee that he can pay. Like a person with two wooden legs getting another person with two wooden legs to guarantee that he has got two natural legs. It don't make either of them able to do a walking-match."

There are over 7000 languages spoken today. Most linguists estimate more than half will no longer be spoken within 100 years. More than half of the 8.3 billion people on the planet learn to speak more than one language from childhood. Why would anyone think their language is superior to any other?
