Linguistic genocide has frequently been used throughout history to systematically eradicate languages, for one reason or another. Sometimes it’s to assert the authority of a ruling power, sometimes it’s an attempt to assimilate an ethnic minority, and sometimes it’s to provide “linguistic unity.”

Tamizh, eh? Urs drastically, and Maxi's subtly, world is limited to lingo.

CKN, indeed.

Humanity is much broader.

Forget lingo, caste, Iyenger, or even race, I read they found bones in Mars - so it could be between Aliens.

But, you live in your world of Tambi, Tamil, and Tamizh, world of Iyer and Iyenger.

Any goal or passion based on a language is not only narrow minded, but sick in 21st century.
