Thank you Prof. Piller for a very intriguing article, it has shed light on the impact of religions on languages, which is a universal problem but is often ignored by people living within their society.

The case mentioned is somewhat similar to what happened to Vietnamese language. In the 19th century, Vietnam was colonized by the French. In order to control the local people more easily, the French brought Catholic church to Vietnam, and began to spread Christianity, and in that process they had come up with a new script – the Vietnamese alphabet script that became the national script and have been used until today.

This reminds us of how powerful religions can be, not only can it change people’s beliefs and behaviours, it can also change the language and the history of people worldwide.

“In South Africa, Western-type formal education for Africans was introduced by missionaries from the beginning of the 19th century onwards. Many missions relied on African languages to convey the divine message, and some African languages were duly ‘reduced to writing’.” – (Lafon & Webb, 2008)

The Wycliff Bible Translators, just as missionaries during the colonial period, do not actually care about the survival of languages. They care about passing on the Christian belief to as many people possible, disregarding the complex linguistic contexts in the process.
