Njerep

Having already become extinct in one country (Cameroon), Njerep, a Bantoid language, is spoken in Nigeria by only 4 individuals. According to reports from anthropologists, the youngest person who speaks the language is 60, meaning that the chances of Njerep surviving beyond this last generation are pretty slim.

Kawishana

Spoken near the Japura River in Brazil, Kawishana (Kaixana) was once a popular language utilized by many. The numbers began dwindling, eventually dropping down to 200. Now, there remains only one documented person still able to speak the language.

Paakantyi

This Australian Aboriginal language is still spoken in regions alongside the Darling River, but only by a few people. Reports vary, claiming that anywhere from 22 to 2 individuals are able to speak Paakyanti—but either way, it’s hard to argue that this language is on the verge of extinction. In an effort to avoid this fate, some schools have begun programs to attempt to reintroduce Paakantyi to a new generation.

Liki

The select few able to speak Liki (as of 2007, between 5 and 11 remained) inhabit several islands in the Papua region off the coast of Indonesia. Liki was once far more commonly spoken, especially by indigenous church leaders. Today, the numbers have dropped and aren’t likely to increase any time soon.

Sarcee

Sarsi, related to the Navajo language spoken in the Southern United States, is spoken by the Canadian branch of the Tsuu T’ina tribe. Because the culture is based predominately on oral transmission and tradition, there are no written records (or writing system, for that matter) available, and because only 50 or so speakers remain, Sarsi faces almost certain extinction.

Chemehuevi

A Colorado River Numic language, Chemehuevi is verging on extinction and is now only spoken by a handful of people in the Midwestern United States. Having been studied rather extensively by linguist Margaret L. Press, the language has been preserved in the form of field notes and recordings but is still likely to die out.

Kate Walker

Who is Kate Walker? She’s a freelance writer, yoga addict, and citizen of the concrete jungle. When not on the mat, Kate can be found at the dog park or on the dock in Muskoka. She is also pretty fond of running, skiing, and Settlers of Catan.

Why do I get so angry?

Why do I get angry? Feelings of anger arise due to how we interpret and react to certain situations. Everyone has their own triggers for what makes them angry, but some common ones include situations in which we feel: threatened or attacked.

Why do I get angry?

Feelings of anger arise due to how we interpret and react to certain situations. Everyone has their own triggers for what makes them angry, but some common ones include situations in which we feel:

threatened or attacked

frustrated or powerless

like we're being invalidated or treated unfairly

like people are not respecting our feelings or possessions

People can interpret situations differently, so a situation that makes you feel very angry may not make someone else feel angry at all (for example, other reactions could include annoyance, hurt or amusement). But just because we can interpret things differently, it doesn't mean that you're interpreting things 'wrong' if you get angry. How you interpret and react to a situation can depend on lots of factors in your life, including: Whether your anger is about something that happened in the past or something that's going on right now, thinking about how and why we interpret and react to situations can help us learn how to cope with our emotions better. It can also help us find productive strategies to handle our anger.
