These 33 European languages are all in danger of going extinct

Four British languages are among 33 featured on a new "endangered" list.

• Saying 'hello' in some of the endangered languages

Manx and Cornish are listed as "critically endangered" by Christopher Moseley at UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies, while Jersey French and Guernsey French are "severely endangered".

The report, based on data from the 1993 Unesco Languages in Danger project, was released by GoEuro, which promotes a linguistic type of ethical tourism.

Despite the rankings of the four British languages, Dr Moseley said Manx and Cornish actually had the better chance of a revival.

"It was an uphill battle because Manx had reached the point where the last first-language speaker died in 1974," he said.

"Since then they’ve been running classes and they have a school. Both that and Cornish are being revived in an organised way. Education is the most important thing."
