Abstract

Indigenous languages is dying. I explored the impact of mainstream culture, media, and education systems on the vitality of Indigenous languages in urbanized setting and the efforts of Indigenous Youth to preserve their language use within households in urbanized setting. I used a descriptive qualitative study, using semi-structured I interviewed with 16 indigenous youth whom I purposively selected. I employed thematic analysis to analyze the data and found out the vitality of Indigenous languages amid the influence of mainstream culture, media, and education through continuous preservation efforts. I recommend that educational institutions incorporate indigenous languages in the curriculum. A quantitative study uses the identified themes as variables and sub-themes as indicators, as well as a qualitative study to explore additional emerging themes in greater depth for future research.Indigenous languages is dying.
