The need for language preservation in south Sudan.
South Sudan is the youngest nation in Africa and I am a proud citizen of this wonderful republic. It consists of sixty-four tribes all with their unique cultures and customs. some tribes have common cultural practices and have passed down their unique lifestyle through generations. One of the many defining mediums of south Sudanese tribes is their language.
Language plays an important role in our daily life, though many are not well versed with English as a national language in the country. we use mother tongue to exchange information, trade goods, solve problems and many other things. of course, this is a broad topic to cover in one blog post. South Sudan has 60 languages most of which (I'm not sure) are still in use. Most spoken languages in the country are Nuer(Thok Nath), Dinka(Thong Jieng), zande, and bari (Kuku Mandari). Other languages have little to no trace of existence in the intellectual community.
