Title of the submission

What is Makassar language?

Type of submission
  • Lightning talk – Short 10-minute presentation
Abstract (up to 300 words to describe your proposal)

The presentation will cover the history, origins, and the creation of the Makassar language (sources are still being researched). Additionally, it will briefly discuss related languages such as Bugis, Mandar, and Toraja, as well as the scripts used for writing Makassar. There are several scripts used that are still being investigated.

Theme of session
  • Visions Forged: Charting Paths in Language Advocacy.
What will attendees take away from this session?

I want people to know about the Makassar language, and maybe write its history on Wikipedia using their language. And also I hope this can attract the attention of existing linguists because I am interested in discussing language similarities, especially in Makassar and Indonesian.
