French was the language of international communication not because of its supposedly precise nature but because France used to be one of the? most powerful countries in the world and consequently its culture and language were prominent. There's no logic behind the popularity of a language, it's all about strategy. If, for example, Portugal was the most powerful country in the world, well everyone would learn Portuguese.

"once it's gone is gone" Say that? to the Israelis and their Hebrew

I love David Mitchell, but he's completely wrong, and if he was raised speaking gaidhlig, he'd know that. I am surprised however that a man whose family were once refugees from the clearances would tout the decline of gaidhlig? as "natural selection". No. A large part of the decline was due to the genocide and forced displacement in the gaidhlig speaking highlands during the clearances. Also we can revive it! You don't need to dump millions into that, just support gaidhlig education!

Bigotry can always be justified by architecture, I find... Every reason why the Scots are unable to govern themselves can be found? in a building designed by a Catalan architect. For more good points put forward by unionism, google BNP and UKIP.

its quite easy to be a bigoted angol scot as since I? live in Edinburgh I have to put up with more of this snp crap than anyone in the north. The parliament building is an eyesore too.
By: amandaberesford. on 16 May 12, 05:35:54
Not in the least? bit surprising. Anglo-Scots have a long tradition of bigotry against Gaelic.

Ummmmm..... a metaphor???? Do you even know the proper definition of a metaphor?.... Maybe his his 'example'... Try not to use words that you don't understand, as you make yourself look stupid. Youre wrong: Dodo - Man killed it, Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger)- Man killed it, Passenger Pidgeon - Man ate it, Carribean Monk Seal - Man killed it, Pyrenean Ibex - Man killed it, Bubal Hartebeest - Man hunted for fun, Javan Tiger - Man killed it. I suggest? you do some research mate because you're so wrong
By: deepbluereason. on 10 May 12, 15:16:39
I think something to keep in mind that? David is speaking, primarily, as an Englishman and member of the Scottish diaspora, not a Scot. It's obvious that he wouldn't see the use in keeping Gàidhlig alive. Him learning the language would do him no good and would neither do the language nor Scotland any good. He also doesn't seem to consider that Welsh and Irish Gaelic were well on their way to being where Gàidhlig is today before considerable efforts of government and individuals reversed trend.
By: EinarEle. on 09 May 12, 00:11:19
"it is far less precise then [F]rench, which is why for many centuries, [F]rench was the? language of all international communication among diplomats" That has nothing to do with precision. French was the lingua franca because for some centuries leading up to this French had been the most powerful nation in Europe (and didn't need to pander to other nations'? requirements).

Nationalism doesn't have really much to do with pride. You wouldn't be proud of being in a wealthy family; but who should your parents' money go to when they die? Certainly not the house guests, but it should go to the children. Nationalism is belief in inheritance of land to its rightful people. I? disagree with Carlin's argument; breaking up pride into biased self-definitions and then arguing against them is like arguing against a god that you created.

By: danagarro. on 03 May 12, 23:33:08
2:46 , that bit about animals almost never becoming extinct on their own is just not true. Natural? selection is constantly at work and extinction of a species is not at all rare. Why would evolution stop working in the modern day? (exception ofcourse being for man) not that this metaphor was central to his point, just saying its wrong
By: HarduntheRanger. on 01 May 12, 16:19:45
Unfortunately the world runs on precise mathematical language. But I don't think English is limited in expressing emotion - you just have to be? a bit clever about it, which to be honest not many people are.
By: 255ad. on 01 May 12, 09:42:59
Criticizing a another culture then criticizing all people of a particular race under the? assumption that they are all part of that culture would be racists, just criticizing another culture is not Generally I try to judge people by what they say not their motives for say it but setting that aside doesn't the fact that he endorses the learning of welsh reasonably prove that couldn't have been his motivation?
By: amandaberesford. on 01 May 12, 05:58:00
Of course it is. Especially in this case, when? the hostility of the Anglo elites towards Gaelic was racially motivated.
By: amandaberesford. on 01 May 12, 05:57:04
Agreed. Race is tied up in culture, they cannot be as easily disentagled as the supremacists now like to imagine. Strange that they disown this feature of culture given the lengths they went to create hierarchies based on a people's race and? language.
By: 255ad. on 30 Apr 12, 22:59:42
a race is not culture?
By: BountyHunter7520. on 30 Apr 12, 22:54:46
Yes it is! Language is the primary basis for the existence of ethnic groups. Therefore, if a language dies, the ethnic group dies with it. The people? carry on but at the expense of their cultural identity. That is a form of racism. It may be cultural as opposed to being based on say skin colour, but it is racism nevertheless.
By: 255ad. on 30 Apr 12, 22:43:45
look long enough on-line and you'll find some one who likes, dislikes, loves? and hates just about any thing you can think of

criticising a language is not being racist against the people who speak it?

English racists really? like him. Scottish people like anyone else in the world don't like people that are racist against them.
