@Walter Hinteler,
Quote:Because some persons are following the trial there, have Italian as mother tongue, know at least two other languages fluently ...
Basic cold, hard reality...
The world is getting smaller very quickly in this age of worldwide television and media. Television has pretty much killed the southern accent in the U.S. In Texas, you hear it only amongst older people, everybody else has learned to speak from television and they all sound like people from the mid Atlantic region.
In another 20 - 30 years, there will probably be 10 or 20 languages spoken in the world. My own best guess would be that survivors will include:
1. Two Germanic languages, English and German.
2. Two Romance languaes, French and Spanish.
3. One Slavic language, Russian.
4. Two Semitic languages, Hebrew and Arabic.
5. One subcontinent language, Hindi.
6. Four East Asian languages, Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, Korean, and Japanese.
It isn't clear that anything else will or should survive. Learning any sort of a language past your first one is enough work that you're not doing anybody any favors by making them learn Swedish, Danish, Dutch, or any of the ones which nobody's going to need or use in 20 years.
In particular I don't see a need for Italian. In fact, if Italians were all to learn to speak French, they might could develop some sort of a decent opera.
