it also just sounds atrocious
If this list was actually EVERY extinct language, the video would probably be longer than every KZread video in history and then some, and would require literal magic to put togetrher since only a small fraction of all languages that have gone extinct have left any records behind.

I can forgive him for not explicitly saying _"that we know of,"_ because that part is generally understood. By definition, we don't know about the "unknown unknowns," so we can't talk about them. Unfortunately, this video doesn't include some extinct languages that we do know of, such as the Harappan language of the Indus Valley Civilization. The bigger problem with this video is that it doesn't differentiate between "dead" and "extinct," and consequently, includes several dead languages among the truly extinct ones. This channel is just one of hundreds of copycats based on the "Every X explained in Y minutes" fad. I'm not very optimistic about its own survival.

Yes, this channel is really low quality content. It is just minimally animated videos of bog-standard encyclopedia entries read by a computer voice. I would guess that the KZreadr doesn't even have a degree.
You cannot call a language extinct simply because it evolved. Neither Greek nor Latin are extinct.

Latin is just dead so not extinct, since it has second language speakers and used in the Vatican, but yes, you can say a language is dead or extinct because it evolved.

Coptic isn't extinct. It has 1 million speakers as the language of the Coptic Orthodox Church. There's a difference between a dead language and an extinct language. A dead language has no native speakers. An extinct language has no speakers at all. Same with Cornish. No native speakers, but it has speakers. Also Latin, which is the language of the Vatican.

I wonder what happened in 300 bc that made ancient greek extinct edit. lmao exactly after it says that it developed to byzantine greek (and then modern greek) so much for an extinct language
Btw koine Greek is being used everyday non stop in Greek Orthodox Church, and modern Greek is just the continuum of a living language, which evolved the last 3.500 years continuously spoken and written.
I have many problems wiþ ðis video such as: Old Dutch and Old Fraŋkish are ðe same and boþ Germanic, Burgundian was not spoken in ðe Duchy of Burgundy, but ðe early Kiŋdom of Burgundy, and it's East Germanic so not a Romance laŋuage or similer to Fraŋkish, Latin is Proto-Romance and as such if included you should have every widely exepted proto-language, (anoðer is you can raðer controversialy claim Dalmatian and Old Norse are not extiŋct), and finally whilest ðis is excusable he pronounced most laŋguage's names wroŋ, it's excusable but it hurts like hell.
Ancient Egyptian lasted for a long period, 3000 years , Coptic evolved from it during the Ptolemaic dynasty
Church Slavonic is still used sometimes in Orthodox Churches.
Why do you have images of runes in the Phoenician section?
isnt burgundian supposed to be an east germanic language, making them closer to gothic than old frankish?
why so fast? little bit slower it would be better ...
