A PAN-DIASPORA CONSULTATION ON THE
"STATUS OF WESTERN ARMENIAN LANGUAGE IN THE DIASPORA TODAY" WILL BE HELD IN
ANTELIAS
His Holiness Aram I has nominated a committee to prepare the third
Consultation on the theme of "Western Armenian language and Armenian Studies
Today", to be held in Antelias 14-16 September2010. These series of
consultations have been organized in cooperation with the Armenian Affairs
Department of the Gulbenkian Foundation. The first conference was held in
2004 on the theme "Armenian Studies in the Diaspora"" and the second in 2008
on "Teaching Armenian History and Language in the Diaspora".
The purpose of the forthcoming consultation is to analyze the usage of
Western Armenian in the diaspora today and its mutation by foreign
languages. Like many other languages, Armenian is being influenced by the
local languages where the diaspora communities live, and by the need to
create new vocabulary to keep pace with the advancement of science and
technology.
A large number of linguists, professors of Armenian Language and Literature
and representatives of educational institutions have been invited to take
part in this important event.
