Question 1: “When a people are enslaved, as long as they hold fast to their language it is as if they had the key to their prison.” Can you think of examples in history where a conquered people had their language taken away from them or had a language imposed on them?

Hi friend,
“When a people are enslaved, as long as they hold fast to their language it is as if they had the key to their prison.” Examples in history where a conquered people had their language taken away from them or had a language imposed on them are:-
1. The Romans conquered many parts of Europe and replaced the local languages by Latin, their language.
2. The Muslim invaders imposed Persian and Arabian language on the people of their conquered countries.
Hope it helps!
