A dead tung is one that no longer has any born speakers. Most often this happens when a tung undergoes speech death while the speakers swap their old tung for a new one. For show: Teutonish was forsaken for Anglo-saxon, and many American tongues which were forsaken for English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. A tung which has born speakers is known as a living tung, of which there are about 6,500 today. This leaf is a stub. You can help the Anglish Moot by swelling it.
