Ohne eine Bilingue kann man sich nie sicher sein, dass man es entziffert hat. OK, bei Rongorongo weiß man im gegensatz zu Voynich und Phaisos zumindest mit extremer Sicherheit, dass und welche Sprache da geschrieben ist, aber eben immer noch nicht, nach welchem Prinzip. Mir ist bislang nicht bekannt, dass sie überprüfbar wirklich "geknackt" wurde.

omniglot schrieb:Linguists often race to study a language before it dies, tracking the extinction process much as conservationists would an endangered species. In a surprising number of cases, they have been able to pinpoint a single remaining speaker who will in some sense take that language to their grave. It gets a little complicated here, as this designation may indicate the last native-born speaker, the last monoglot speaker, or simply the last fluent speaker. Here are all the known people who currently qualify as "last speakers" of a language:

reuters schrieb:The last known native speaker of the Klallam language, which the U.S. government once sought to phase out before funding an effort to preserve it, died in Washington state on Tuesday at age 103, friends and tribal leaders said.
The death of Hazel Sampson, who was taught the Klallam language by her parents before learning English, marks the end of an era, said Ron Allen, chairman of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe. Sampson died at a hospital in Port Angeles, Washington.
Klallam belongs to the Salish family of Native American languages, spoken in the Pacific Northwest and southwestern Canada.
"It’s the final chapter of one of our tribal citizens who grew up in the culture before we were exposed extensively to the non-Indian culture and language," Allen said. "We lost an elder who kept the culture and language of the S’Klallam people fresh in the younger generation."
