and dynamic. Indonesia is home to about 700 languages, roughly ten percent
of the languages of the world. Among these is Indonesian, an emergent major
world language spoken as a first or second language by some 260 million people.
The instantiation and development of Standard Indonesian as a national
language, the increasing number of Indonesians reporting use of Indonesian as a
primary language, the language contact scenarios between Indonesian and hundreds
of other languages of Indonesia (Austronesian, non-Austronesian and
colonial), and the implication of shift toward Indonesian in the endangerment
of hundreds of languages – these are all part of the dynamic linguistic
situation in Indonesia. Indonesia thus serves as a profoundly important case
study for multilingualism, language endangerment, language documentation, and
emerging new varieties.</span></span><span class="eop"><span style="color:black;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-size:initial;background-repeat:initial;background-origin:initial;background-clip:initial"></span></span></p>
