  Did you know about Siberian language? it was created by siberian separatists in 2006 and based upon choldonic dialect. Bugotak, in its new and free album Wheels Must Roll uses this language in some songs.

  Alle deutschen Dialekte sich vom Aussterben bedroht. Und das Deutsche selbst wird langsam von "Denglisch" verdrängt. Und das Denglisch, wer weiß, am Ende vielleicht vom Englischen selbst... Do you see? ;-)

  Oh! I was using an old version of the Unesco Red Book, they have published a new one last month (April 2009): In it they define 5 levels, and Welsh is "unsafe", the lowest level of endangerment: http://www.unesco.org/culture/en/endangeredlanguages

  Welsh isn't an endangered language by the way. The number of speakers are growing every year! It might fit into the "Potentially Endangered Languages" category but definitely not the first one.

  Welsh isn't endangered, there are too many nationalists in my country keeping it alive. It's unfortunate that once this was patriotism, is now nationalism and hatred towards the English language instead of advocation of the Welsh language.

  Esperanto is fun, but I have the strangest fascination/obsession with constructed languages anyway. I was surprised to see the lack of a general group for language lovers, so I made one, if anyone is interested: http://www.last.fm/group/I+LOVE+languages

  I find Esperanto hilarious, especially Esperanto rap. Ooga booga. Everybody should make up their own language. A Language of One.™ ;^)
