@Billonaire Riches Yeah except people taking over you doesn't necessarily have to include genocide. Of course people will die in battles and armed confrontations but once one side is victorious it doesn't need to wipe out the other side. Of course cultural genocide and economic loss happens most of the time when a nation conquers another one. But that's preferable in a way than to be completely wiped out. Only place i can think of right now that has conserved their culture perfectly after being colonized is in New Zealand (Maoris) even though they never gained independence. Then you have places like Mexico who lost most of their culture and language and mixed with the colonizers. Or even places like Ireland and Scotland who got the English language and traditions imposed to them. And places like India who conserved their culture but lost millions and millions in terms of economics.

One side of a multifaceted story. English was itself suppressed and driven underground by French for hundreds of years, in England. That it survived is because it's so adaptable, a mongrel where everyone has a home if they want. English is fluid and friendly, many dialects, accents, pidgins and creoles. But it didn't have an easy start. You were not even a second class citizen in England when the French took over and imposed their ways upon the land and its language. Olde English was beautiful and we lost many words, phrases and sayings in the transition to a Latin base.

Tapan Sharma yah those ancient tribes of India are very genetically similar to those native to Australia, these people groups were some of the first to leave Africa, it's amazing that some still live on today , yet sadly these indigenous populations are growing smaller. If you're interested the KZread channel Masaman does great videos on the topic. Peace

This is a good initiative. Keep strong.

I’m from the Aboriginal Village of Kedijjee in Canada. I can’t find anything online on the Kedijen Peoples which is sad so I am here to share. Most of the original Kedijen people were pushed out of Greenland by Europeans and forced deep into the Canadian arctic. I speak a variant of Keeduspauq that is mixed with Dutch and English. Other variants are spoken around the village too, the most different being Chepdusuaq. Words like Mesqauq (Hello) Kemuqutatuk (Goodbye) etc usually are the same within the dialects. However in Chepdusuaq, Mesquaq turns into Mésonnée, Kemuqutatuk to Chason-tontu. So European influence on Kedijen culture in apparent. The original Keedusuaq is long lost, the only trace of it being words the elders have to us such as Otutuq (grandma) Asuaqutas (squirrel) and Kisuaqdeuaqutasuq (Girl)

My great grandmother spoke Scottish Gaelic as her main language. She would have been born in the highlands around 1860-70. You really have to make an effort at a government level I think as I'm an example of a family that will have spoken the same language for thousands of years and it went from my great-grandmother speaking it as her first language to my granddad speaking as his second language to my dad not speaking a word of it. A total loss of culture and language in two generations.

I have nothing but full respect to the Miriwoong people I love the pride they have that runs in the community. It’s difficult when languages disappear over time because as myself who is an Assyrian from the Middle East our Language is Ancient Assyrian-Neo-Aramaic, our tribe still teach the mother tongue that’s gone on for thousands of years for the next generation as old as it is. I totally agree with the part when its mentioned that being able to speak the Miriwoong language allows you to open a world of opportunities - all in all you never forget where you come from and where you stand as a person, it’s best to embrace who your people are.

Some languages stay the same, Australian Aboriginals were nomadic but generally the continent is empty and dry desert. Very few outside influences besides neighbouring tribes, Papuans and Indonesians travelled to the Eastern coast but the Miriwoong are from the far West of Australia. Odds are a lot of these words are tens of millenia old.

That language actually sounds like tamil.

I felt a strong connection to Tamil both in the language and in the appearances...

Wish I knew the translation for Budgerigar. There's two answers online saying it comes from their aboriginal name Betcherrygar, with betcherry meaning (good) and gar meaning (food). Although another source says gar is parakeet. Budgies can form megaflocks during droughts to communicate and discern where the best food/water is, so you could follow the flock towards resources (good food). But then again, the other source that says it means "good parakeet" because they're so cheerful and bold (good parakeet). I know it can't mean they're good to eat, because they're tiny, and it makes more sense that following their megaflock would be helpful during a drought.

Oh my goodness! These people look exactly like people from my hometown in Tamilnadu. There definitely must be some connection.
