I do not want to give the impression that it is a dead language because my earlier questions were about gearing towards industry and preparing the workforce in the best possible way. That is precisely the point. It is a very important language in terms of preparing one to learn more languages and learn about cultures. Perhaps it could be looked at to see if there could be a revival or at least if it could be made as available as widely as possible.
