Gràcies @OdichitalArgns! Minority language promotion starts with protecting vernacular communities. Language promotion with vernacular community protection requires reinforcing the social geography of the day-to-day practice of minority languages and their lived social culture.
Conchúr Ó Giollagáin @ConchurOG: "As luengas minorizatas han de reforzar es suyos bastions, as zonas do se fabla de verdat".

Neo-liberal minority-language policies and politics made this desocietalised syndrome inevitable. In ignoring the societal decline of the language minorities, minority-language officialdom prioritised defending its bureaucratic mechanisms rather than minority communities.

Conchúr Ó Giollagáin @ConchurOG: «Funtseqn, gaur egun hizkuntza minorizatuetara begira egiten diren politiketan, oro har, bazterrean uzten da desagertzen ari direla hiztunen komunitateak, eta indarra jartzen da hizkuntzaren sustapen sinbolikoan batez ere».

Good point about the foundational DQ.
@ConchurOG @uema_eus @npldeu @EUROLANG @mercatornetwork @MercatorCentre @ThinkUHI @ForasnaGaeilge @MisneachdAlba @FisanPhobail @FerranSuay Interesting article. Applying it to “my world” of Aranese, I see that without strong DQ1 foundations, DQ2–4 cannot meaningfully sustain long-term vitality. Civic efforts must reinforce and incentivize home transmission, not just public usage.

Analysis of #ScottishLanguagesBill "official and academic failure to engage sincerely with the reality check which the #GaelicCrisis evidence engendered is also implicated in this misguided legislation . a rebuff to the remaining #Gaelic communities.".

The Scottish Languages Bill is simply a rehash of the status quo, writes Professor Conchúr Ó Giollagáin, the co-author of a landmark study published in 2020
On the 5th anniversary of the publication of the #GaelicCrisis study, we enquire what concrete steps have been taken to address the ongoing social decline of #Scotland's native speaking #Gaelic communities? #ScottishLanguagesBill does not address this.

Mo thaing do sgioba Aithris na Maidne airson an cothrom a thoirt dhomh bruidhinn air Bile nan Cànan Albannach.
Thuirt Ollamh Rannsachadh na Gàidhlig aig UHI gu bheil Achd nan Cànan Albannach gun fheum 's nach dèan e dad 'son a' Ghàidhlig a ghlèidheadh mar chànan coimhearsnachd.
