identity, wittgenstein
Linguistics is an identity solution.
Was there ever a single identity to be claimed? We are responsible regardless of identity. Fragmentation is not irresponsible.
Europe cannot manage to get a single language off the ground. The greeks failed along with the roman and the germans. The english have left it to the former colonies to be the example worth imitating. Make the bastards want to speak english. The motivations may very well originate in the other.
