SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- Alaska Native languages are most likely to be extinct or dormant by the end of the 21st century unless action is taken to
save them, a new report released by a committee of the state in the most
northwestern part of the United States said.
The Anchorage Daily News Sunday quoted the 2018 report of the Alaska Native Language Preservation and Advisory Council as saying that the Alaska Native
languages are in a "linguistic emergency."
"If current rates of decline were to continue as they have been since the 1970s, all Alaska Native languages may lose their last fluent speakers by the
end of the 21st century," the report said.
The council, established by the state legislature in 2012 to preserve and restore Alaska Native languages, urged Alaska Governor Bill Walker to make a
state policy to preserve nike air max 2017 kpu femme , promote and develop those languages.
At the time of statehood in 1959, there were 20 indigenous languages spoken within the boundaries of Alaska, all of which, in addition to English, were
recognized as official languages of the state.
Most of these languages belong to one of two large language families -- Eskimo-Aleut and Athabaskan-Eyak-Tlingit.
Currently, all of those Native languages have "suffered an ongoing loss in the number of speakers over the past 40 years," the council said in its biennial
report.
The Tsetsa'ut language lost its last fluent speaker in the early 1930s nike air max 2017 kpu homme , and another language, Eyak, lost its last fluent speaker in 2008, it noted.
The council warned that the number of people who actually speak the languages has falled, though the Alaska Native population has grown since 1980.
While the central Yup'ik and Inupiaq are the two most spoken Alaska Native languages, other languages such as Haida, Tsimshian nike air max 95 rabais , Han, and Upper Tanana, now have fewer than 10 speakers each in Alaska, said the council.
BEIJING, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- China said Wednesday that Cold War thinking would undermine joint efforts to seek a proper resolution for the Korean
Peninsula nuclear issue and create a division in the international community.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang made the remarks at a routine press briefing when asked to comment on the Vancouver meeting, which calls for maximum
pressure on the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to force it to end
its nuclear and missile programs.
"The 20-nation gathering hosted by the United States and Canada in the name of United Nations Command apparently reflects their Cold War thinking," Lu said.
He reiterated that to convene a meeting where major parties to the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue were not included would not help in the creation of an
appropriate resolution on the issue.
Lu said the main channel for handling and resolving the nuclear issue on the peninsula should still be the framework of the six-party talks and the UN
Security Council.
"China has always persisted in resolving the peninsula nuke issue through dialogue and consultation nike air max 90 ultra 2.0 flyknit rabais ," he said, reaffirming China's position on denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
"The crux of the Korean Peninsula nuke issue is the security issue," Lu said. "Only through dialogue can the parties concerned address their legitimate
security concerns and find an effective way to peacefully solve the issue."
"Currently, the north and the south of the Korean Peninsula have been resuming dialogues and contact," he said, calling on all parties concerned to
value the recent easing in tensions and support efforts of both sides to improve
relations.
"It will be counterproductive to increase the DPRK's isolation and the pressure on its government," Lu said.
The meeting nike air max 90 ultra essential rabais , in which China's foreign minister did not participate, came as the DPRK and the Republic of Korea have
resumed talks after Pyongyang decided to join the PyeongChang Winter Olympics
next month.
BEIJING, Nov. 9 (Xinhua) -- Journalists from across China have said they were inspired by Chinese President Xi Jinping's remarks on journalism and would
endeavor to spread China's voice.
Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, called on journalists to "strengthen their confidence in the path,
theory, system nike air max 90 ultra moire rabais , and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics."
He made the statement in a congratulatory letter to the All-China Journalists Association (ACJA) on its 80th anniversary Wednesday.
"We are lucky to work as journalists in the new era and we will strive to present new aspects in our work," said Zhang Tie, deputy director of the
commentary department of the People's Daily, the flagship newspaper of the CPC.
In the letter, Xi said he expected journalists to "maintain a close connection with the people, record the events of the great times, tell China's
stories well nike air vapormax homme rabais , spread China's voice, herald the message of victory and raise national morale, for the realization of the Two
Centenary Goals and national rejuvenation."
"Xi has repeatedly emphasized that journalists should care for the people," said Hou Kaidi from China Central Television. "We need to focus on the stories
of the ordinary people."
"In order to tell stories of the C.
