An indigenous language is a language that originates and is traditionally spoken by the native people of a specific region or country. These languages are often tied to the cultural identity, history, and traditions of the indigenous communities that speak them. Indigenous languages may have unique grammatical structures, vocabulary, and expressions that reflect the specific experiences and worldview of their speakers. Many indigenous languages are at risk of disappearing due to globalization, colonization, and the dominance of larger languages, making efforts to preserve and revitalize them important for maintaining cultural heritage and diversity.
