* Introduction to the topic
A distinction is common in speech Linguistics, scholars among the living language, and dead language, which is also based on linguistic discrimination between those terms, as is the word alive and utter Mitt, in the language of her life, and her language beginning and end, and are borrowing appeared in the titles of some books, Like a book written by (Whitney), in 1867 and was entitled writer (lives of the tongue and his death), and carries the headline (The life and Growth of language), And addresses of these books suggests that languages live and die, like living organisms and biological objects, but these books weren't looking mostly at the fate of the life language, only from within the same language, or from within the structure of the language.
* The legend of excellence
There is the obvious, which is that war languages would not be if the whole world speak one language, multilingualism is the origin of the conflict, and that doesn't mean to say that multilingualism is the only reason for war, but is the necessary condition for the war, if we look at the map of the linguistic world, and searched in the States and in geographical borders, And our search for peoples and languages, we will find ourselves in front of the complex and overlapping network and multiple layers, the first layer (s) of a local nature, and in the second layer (regional language) at the county level, and the third layer (national language) at the State level, And the fourth layer (Language transport) and transmitted and spread and be transnational, where are all these complex fiber layers and dynamic.

* A multilingual world
Multilingual world and that reality, and linguistic history which is a manifestation of the history of the world, and not a big part of it is only managing this multilingualism, not multilingualism, and contrary to what some might have imagined, that this multiplicity of special status, not limited to specific regions, And neither is a feature of the third world specifically, and multilingualism has as much in common, and this pluralism placed in different forms.
- Linguistic duality and bilingualism.
The term does not appear bilingualism (diglossie), In science and literature Linguistics, but in 1959, when I use a world of American Linguistics (Charles Ferguson), This term, derived from the Greek language, and because this term does not mean in the Greek language only the concept of bilingualism, this term I have (Ferguson), acquires more precise meaning, and the writer may select from four conditions of bilingualism, and considered by (Ferguson) is ideal.
* The ideology of superiority
Can imagine that people were always facing linguistic difference, they are more inclined to ridicule the habits of others, and to consider that their language is the most beautiful language, and language is accurate and effective, and that they were always prone to convert other variation to decrease, and it was possible for a movie (war of fire), And which received universally popular in alikherh years, because this film evaluates confrontation between communities and tribes speak different languages, and also appears on the screen the following pattern of linguistic variation patterns, meaning you don't talk like me, if you are talking in a funny picture, and it was possible to imagine all this, and to live and dream in the language war.
* Battlefield
- The language of Limited and the language of publication
Distributed all linguistic forms and that we use, whether languages or different forms of linguistic Mtddh than one language, between two electrodes meet under these two poles and a large number of jobs, and the two pole The Publisher of the hand, and is a pole which determines the linguistic forms that we choose, while We want to reach out to the largest possible number of people, And the second pole is a pole blocking the language on the other hand, a pole that determines unlike the first electrode, the shapes that we're in the take, while we want the Palace to communicate on the lowest possible number of people, and determine our privacy, and the demarcation of the group, which we are part of it, and applies these concepts (the concept limited to, the concept of publishing) on the situation of multilingualism, and the language of autism in the same situation.
- The language of Limited
We do not use the language blocking the meaning of the word (Gre'gaire) And from the Latin word (Grex, Gregaris), Which means the herd, in the pejorative significance, and suggested by the French word while generally said (Instinct gre'gaire), But we use this to express the idea of collusion, and blocking the language, is the language of a small group of people, and only a limited number of humans, and is characterized by the form of this language to limit the spread of management, as is the case in encrypted expressions, dialects special groups .
- The language of publication
On the other end of the multi-language functions, and having pole publisher, and which responds to the problems of completely changing to the problems blocking the language, and this model publisher seeks to convergence, and function of this convergence is the birth of a mixture of languages (Pidgin), And that is the fruit of the friction between the people communicating, sons of different languages.
* Death languages
Do not be surprised one idea of the death of the language, and in the lexicon public language is mention of the word (dead language), which are defined in the dictionary, that dead language is that people no longer speak it, and the Latin language if a dead language, in the sense that we do not we use it in the figure, which was used by Julius Caesar, but this language alive in we mean, that these Latin Please choose a span across the Romanian language, And that under the people communicating in many years they think they speak Latin.
* Social linguistic approach
Obviously at this level that the idea of a universal language learned by all people, and be in Coping second language emanating from general principles can be respected, and it is also clear that the supporters (Asprinto), not defending private interests them, and contrary to what it is As in all intellectual movements.
