Excerpt on Laki from Dr. Mehrdad R. Izady's The Kurds: A Concise Handbook
Indonesian is a standardized dialect of the Malay language that was officially defined with the declaration of Indonesian independence in 1945, and the two languages remain quite similar.
The language is spoken fluently as a second language by most Indonesians, who use a regional language (examples are Minangkabau and Javanese) at home and in their local community.
Compared to European languages, Indonesian has a strikingly small use of grammatically gendered words; the same word is used for he and she or for his and her.
languages which are spoken by ethnic minorities or languages which fulfil subsidiary social communicative functions within a certain multiethnic society, in restoring, preserving, and enhancing ethnic cultures have been widely recognized in modern societies.
Some of language versions, especially used in Northern islands, are not even called Frisian (Fering in Fohr, Solring in Sylt, Halunder in Helgoland, etc.) For a recent decade the Frisian ethnocultural movement has significantly grown, and the number of schools where the Frisian language (languages) is taught as a subject of instruction has significantly increased.
All minority languages, irrespective of the scope of their functionality and the number of speakers, are indispensable in preserving and developing original cultural treasures of various ethnic cultures.
