		The traditional morning rallies to the language monument are often disrupted by the fight between the opposing political parties to place the photos of their party leaders on the top of the monument.
		It was made to scorn the languages it sought to replace, and told the colonized peoples that mimicry of its primacy among languages was a necessary badge of their social mobility as well as their continued humiliation and subjection.
		Standard language, we must be conscious of the terrible irony of the word, that the English language itself was the language of the master, the carrier of his arrogance and brutality.

		Language Movement began in 1948 and reached its climax in the killing of 21 February 1952, and ended in the adoption of Bangla as one of the state languages of Pakistan.
		After a lot of controversy over the language issue, the final demand from East Pakistan was that Bangla must be the official language and the medium of instruction in East Pakistan and for the central government it would be one of the state languages along with Urdu.
		The movement also reiterated the earlier demand that Bangla be declared one of the state languages of Pakistan and the official language of East Pakistan.

	The Language Movement of Pakistan
		Promoting native languages to become the official languages of their respective provinces or districts is the best solution to the problem.
		All native languages of Pakistan should be declared as the national languages of Pakistan.
		Languages that lack the essentials of today's constantly changing modern world can simply be further developed to meet the demands via proper linguistic institutions.

	Revisiting Plain Language - Beth Mazur
		For example, one definition states that plain language is "language that reflects the interests and needs of the reader and consumer rather than the legal, bureaucratic, or technological interests of the writer or of the organization that the writer represents" (Steinberg 1991, p.
		The plain-language movement has also been active outside the U.S. "In 1982, the British government issued a White Paper (a policy statement) ordering departments for the first time to count their forms, abolish unnecessary ones, clarify the rest, and report their progress annually to the prime minister" (Cutts 1995, p.
		In Plain language pleadings, the main focus is on plain language in specific instances such as pleadings, legislation, and forms (Wilson 1996).

		language articles, she concluded that there can be no definitive conclusions about what whole language is, that descriptions of activities and strategies are not consistent, and that no concise definition of whole language exists.
		The second path was to subject whole language writing to a critical analysis, not critical in the judgmental sense, but in the traditional literary criticism sense of taking seriously the language of the texts of the whole language movement.
		The use of language is a rule-governed activity, and the persistent "natural" metaphors of the whole language movement obscure that fact.

		Movements can be associated with words, building a lexicon of movements that can then be combined, or substituted for language.

		I believe the Gaelic movement has great promise of life in it, but that promise will only be properly fulfilled when it naturally works its way into the life of the nation, side by side with every other agency making for a regenerated people.
		The chief enemy of a Celtic revival today is the crushing force of capitalism which irresistibly destroys all national or racial characteristics, and by sheer stress of its economic preponderance reduces a Galway or a Dublin, a Lithuania or a Warsaw to the level of a mere second-hand imitation of Manchester or Glasgow.
		Besides, it is well to remember that nations which submit to conquest or races which abandon their language in favour of that of an oppressor do so, not because of the altruistic motives, or because of a love of brotherhood of man, but from a slavish and cringing spirit.

	ATI - Language and Movement
		The students who have taught me the most about the connections between language and movement are the ones who experience the most interference with their ability, to the point that they feel incapable of doing what they are fully able to do.
		Language therefore moves in two senses of the term: it moves within and through syntactic structures, and it moves others to respond, within or beyond their habitual patterns of response.
		In the language of positive science, Alexander describes the student as an individual "psycho-physical organism" or "human machine" that is not working properly, due to incorrect perceptions and habits.

	Language Policy -- U.S. History
		Languages are best learned in a situation that forces one to do so — where there’s no escape from brutal necessity — unlike the situation in a bilingual classroom (reflexive appeal for ‘social issue’ conservatives).
		Language has seldom functioned as a symbolic identifier in the United States, as an emblem of national pride or a badge of exclusivity.
		Meanwhile, speakers of immigrant languages are on the increase, owing to relatively high levels of immigration.

		Neither the worldwide use of a few national languages, nor advances in communications technology, nor the development of new methods of language teaching is likely to result in a fair and effective language order based on the following principles, which we hold to be essential.
		The unequal distribution of power between languages is a recipe for permanent language insecurity, or outright language oppression, for a large part of the world's population.
		We maintain that communication and development policies which are not based on respect and support for all languages amount to a death sentence for the majority of languages in the world.

	Impact of English Language Movement
		Roots of the Official English and English-Only movements are apparent in xenophobic hostility during the early 1900s toward immigrants from southern and eastern Europe.
		In the first two months of 1996, English language laws were introduced in Kansas, Missouri, New Jersey, Oklahoma, and Rhode Island, as well as in many of the states that considered but failed to adopt these laws in 1995.
		Even when urged as a merely symbolic expression of patriotism, English language laws are unsound because of their tangible impact on the development of consumer protection for language minorities.

		He said that in order to ensure the dynamic growth of the Welsh language, a properly resourced strategy was needed, such as had been achieved successfully in areas such as Catalonia and the Basque country.
		However, much of the growth is due to the numbers of schoolchildren acquiring Welsh as a second language due to the boom in bilingual schooling.
		The number of areas of Wales where Welsh is the majority language - in north and west Wales - is still reducing, fuelling fears that the language may lose its capacity to produce new native speakers.
