The only extinct language used in scholarly publication is Latin, AFAIK.
- SahAssar 7y agoAh, so nobody is doing any research on older non-european cultures then? No archeological or linguistic or other kinds of research? Nothing on african, asian, american cultures?
- gritzko 7y agoI mean, a corpus of researchers writing articles in an extinct language, reading them like that, googling in the language? Vatican is the only example I can think of.
- Tomte 7y agoNo. They are writing about those languages and need to cite the original. Show phrases in that language and then comment on them in English.
