Language changes every mile. So, one may find a distinct language every mile. There is no point in identifying such languages. Rather, these are dialects and not languages.

I think there are more languages dying in India and the prospects of their survival too are very slim!
They have to know that other than English many language exist but due to importance of English no one really feel the need to know them..

How many are really interested in learning new languages other than English..even if they learn due to non-usuage it is difficult to manage.. :huh:
That's right Rajani!The currency of any language is very important for any language to survive!
Thanks for sharing the information,Priya.Many olden languages are losing their importance now a days. :(
Now a days there is a opinion that people who have scored less marks should opt for learning languages like B.A( Tamil),B.A(English),Hindi and so on..Everybody is opting for a professional degree.If this trend continues,our generations never know our good old languages. :(

A language has no purpose other than communication of thoughts and medium of knowledge. It is no use wasting time in learning too many languages. Presently, it suffices to know English, Hindi and own mother tongue. If you reside in a particular area for long time, it will be useful to learn the language of that area.

@Gulshan

You have put it across very pragmatically.It's very difficult and at times irrational to keep a language artificially alive!
