  1. In my opinion, languages should be preserved. because it's one of our heritage, which have left by our ancestors.

  2. I think the languages should be preserved because all those languages might describe about the culture, living standards and so on about one particular place. If a specific language is extinct than we would lose some interesting information. Well this is just my idea. Perhaps you guys have some more interesting ideas.

  3. I think Cambodia's languages should be preserved and protected from being died out. It's very hard to learn how to speak a language. I mean, how much harder is it to ''invent'' a language? So, WE must protect what our ancestors left us.

  10. yeah! for my opinion,Languages represent a country. so it's unique because it's not an easy thing to create. It's completely UNIQUE. we have to use lots of ideas to create one and the most important thing is You have to be very CREATIVE ! so please kindly taking part in preserving our languages although we don't speak all of them .but our ancestors did create them . Don't let them extinct once they've been existing here. :) EniX

  11. Despite the fact that some of them are not parts of my culture ,personally, I think all those languages should be saved rather than be ignored. Each language is part of some people 's culture and history, it is a part of their souls through generations.They are all priceless heritages in human's history and demonstrate something which is so amazing.

  12. I think that we should only preserve general khmer language that we speak everyday.Because another type of khmer language is not spoken.
