Abstract

Peter Ladefoged's discussion note in Language 68 (December, 1992:80911), 'Another view of endangered languages', responds in a general way to the 'Endangered languages' papers of Ken Hale, Michael Krauss, Lucille Watahomigie & Akira Yamamoto, Colette Craig, LaVerne Masayesva Jeanne, and Nora England in Language 68 (March, 1992:1-42). In what follows I would like to respond in a specific way to some of the views put forth in Ladefoged's discussion note. I base my comments purely on Ladefoged's own positions, without reference to the papers he was responding to, since it is his arguments which raise the issues I would like to take up.
