The language debate sparked by actors Kichcha Sudeepa and Ajay Devgn continues to rage across the country.&nbsp;A day after the Twitter spat between Sudeepa and Devgn, politicians from various parts of India weighed in.
In Karnataka's capital Bengaluru, the Karnataka Rakshana Vedika held a protest against Ajay Devgn.&nbsp;Karnataka's Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai defended Kichcha Sudeepa, who hails from the state.&nbsp;Bommai said that Sudeepa's statement was correct, and regional language is most important as states are formed on linguistic basis.
Ajay Devgn also faced criticism from Opposition parties like the Congress and the Jammu &amp; Kashmir National Conference.&nbsp;Union culture minister G. Kishan Reddy said that the BJP respects and encourages all languages, but Hindi is the national language.
In a recent media interaction, Kichcha Sudeepa had reportedly said that "Hindi is no more a national language".&nbsp;In response, Ajay Devgn asked why movies in southern languages are dubbed in Hindi and released.&nbsp;Devgn ended by saying that Hindi was, is, and will remain the national language.
Sudeepa responded by saying that his statement was taken out of context.&nbsp;He also said that he understood Devgn's Hindi tweet, but asked whether the Bollywood star have understood a tweet in Kannada.
The interaction ended with Devgn thanking Sudeepa for clearing up the misunderstanding, and the south star said that it's important to not react without knowing the entire issue.

The family of actor Bruce Willis took to social media to announce that the actor has decided to retire from acting since he has been diagnosed with aphasia. 

Editorji Exclusive: Bruce Willis diagnosed with Aphasia; Here’s what this disorder means 

Recently, Hollywood actor Bruce Willis who is known for his work in &lsquo;Die Hard&rsquo;, took the decision to retire from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia. Read on to know everything about this language disorder.&nbsp;
What is aphasia?&nbsp;
Speech and language are the means by which humans communicate with one another. Loss of this ability is called aphasia.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Speech and language require to have many components: the ability to understand the spoken or written word; the ability to formulate an appropriate response; and to be able to respond in the form of speech or writing.&nbsp;
For this to happen, in a correct and smooth way, there are important centres in the brain, located on the left side in most people, but maybe on the right side in left-handed people. If there is any damage to these centres, aphasia may occur.&nbsp;
Aphasia can be of different types:&nbsp;
The affected person may not be able to understand what is being said. the person may understand what is said, but may not know how to respond. He /she may know how to respond, but what is said is different from what he wanted to say. He/she may not be able to say anything at all despite wanting to do so, which may be very frustrating for the person. What causes aphasia?&nbsp;&nbsp;
Any damage to the area of the brain involved in speech and language can cause aphasia e.g., stroke or head injury or infections when it occurs suddenly.&nbsp;&nbsp;
It can also occur in tumours or be a part of a generalized disease process when it occurs gradually and progresses slowly.&nbsp;
Treatment&nbsp;
There is no specific treatment for aphasia. Aphasia therapy can be very helpful, where the patient is taught to use other means of communication by using gestures or pictures. In traumatic events and stroke, some recovery may occur with time.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;

So, this manifests as&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Inability to understand what the other person is saying, so he/she won't be able to follow instructions.</li>
<li>Speaking with lots of pauses during the conversation.</li>
<li>Substitutes words e.g. saying chair instead of a door or even incomprehensible sounds, so what the person says seems to have no meaning at all (this is seen also when the person is writing).&nbsp;</li>

The world could lose over 1,500 languages in the next 100 years, suggests a new study.

Endangered languages: 1,500 languages could be forgotten by the next century 

Losing a voice: 1,500 languages could be forgotten by the next century

If current trends continue,&nbsp;the world could lose at least one language per month.

The world&rsquo;s dominant languages are running a steam roller over other smaller languages that could see us losing over 1,500 languages in&nbsp;the next 100 years, suggests a new study.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In&nbsp;fact, greater road density&nbsp;was linked to a higher endangerment risk&nbsp;for languages within a region.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The first-of-its-kind global report found that out of the 7,000 documented languages, more than half are currently endangered&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;rare&nbsp;ones face an acute&nbsp;risk of completely disappearing within the next century.&nbsp;

Assessing around&nbsp;51 factors or predictors, the researchers&nbsp;discovered that schooling in a dominant language was one of the biggest reasons behind the&nbsp;loss&nbsp;of minority languages.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Writing in&nbsp;Nature Ecology and Evolution, the team urged for bi- or multilingual education and support for&nbsp;programs that let communities bring their heritage language into schools.&nbsp;
Language loss has been predicted for decades and if current trends continue,&nbsp;the world could lose at least one language per month.&nbsp;This is why&nbsp;we must encourage children to speak other languages &mdash; including their Indigenous language.&nbsp;&nbsp;

When languages fade so does the age-old medical knowledge, warns study!

The languages used by indigenous communities act as an Encyclopedia of medical knowledge. According to a study by&nbsp;the University of Zurich&nbsp;when these languages fade, with them&nbsp;disappears the age-old knowledge of medicine.

The languages used by indigenous communities act as an Encyclopedia of medical knowledge. According to a new study when these languages fade, with them&nbsp;disappears the age-old knowledge of medicine.&nbsp;

Communities, especially indigenous communities have for years used their surrounding biodiversity to create a &ldquo;living pharmacy&rdquo; of their own. The languages used by them act as an Encyclopedia of medical knowledge which the world cannot afford to lose.
According to a study by the University of Zurich, "75 percent of the world&rsquo;s medicinal plant applications are only known in one language." When these languages are not recorded and passed on from one generation to another, a lot of valuable information gets lost in the process. Sometimes languages are lost and forgotten when the prevalence of one language supersedes another.
It has also been estimated that there are around 7,400 languages in the world today. As per linguists, if these languages are not recorded and passed on then 30 percent of all languages can disappear by the end of the 21st century.
The study also suggests that the extinction of languages and cultural diversity will have a more devastating effect on the field of medicine than biodiversity loss.&nbsp;
In conclusion, for its survival, it is necessary to create a society where threatened languages are taught, used and preserved. These languages need to be documented before they disappear forever!
