LSP PLANNING AND THE ESTONIAN LANGUAGE IN THE EARLY 21ST CENTURY
Mots-clés :
Estonian language, LSP planning, terminologyRésumé
First paragraph: The key to the present often lies in the past. A historical perspective is particularly appropriate if the spiral movement seems to have completed another cycle. This means that the question "To be or not to be?" faced by the Estonian special language at the turn of the past century, has recurred to us now, a hundred years later. Of course, no end of changes have meanwhile taken place in the world, in Estonia as well as in the Estonian language, and yet – there it is again, the old question. And like a hundred years ago, it is not one for the LSP planners alone to answer, but for the Estonian people. The answer depends on just what language policy and what national policy the people will choose in the new situation.
