Map of Endangered Languages - Part 2

Last week's post showed a huge number of indigenous languages throughout the world. Here is a summary (via the Living Tongues Institute) showing hotspots of endangered languages.

The above site has a companion living dictionaries site where you can find a language by map,

zoom closer for more detail,
 

 and open its dictionary.

When opening the dictionary you can see and listen to the pronunciations of the indigenous words.
If geography is not your thing (what?) you can search the sidebar for a specific language.
