Every two weeks, somewhere on Earth, a language dies. Not a dialect, not a regional accent — a complete language, with its own grammar, its own literature, its own way of organizing reality, disappearing forever when the last person who speaks it draws a final breath. But some languages did not die quietly. Some were spoken by entire civilizations that vanished, leaving behind inscriptions that no one could read for centuries. Tonight we follow the linguists who have spent their lives trying to hear the voices of the dead — and ask what we lose when a language disappears forever.
