Subject: [ilat] Interested in Multimedia Dictionaries

 

I am interested in Multimedia Dictionaries.  We already have a written dictionary and we are interested in creating one that has text, sound and graphics.  I am in the process of looking at other dictionaries and I am looking for suggestions for reviewing.  I am also interested in the process of creating a multimedia dictionary and the software used to create such a tool.

Twenty languages in state on road to extinction, says survey


Mumbai Mirror | Aug 9, 2013, 11.34 AM IST

 

 

 

 

About 20 indigenous languages of the state are fast disappearing, revealed a country-wide survey conducted by the People's Linguistic Survey of India (PLSI) after its completion was announced on Thursday. 

However, Maharashtra has the third-highest number of indigenous languages among India's 28 states. While Arunachal Pradesh topped the list with 90 languages, Assam qualified as second highest with 55 languages. Maharashtra took the third position, with 46 languages belonging to coastal, nomadic and adivasi communities, besides Marathi, which alone has 14 different dialects.
