I most certainly do not possess a rich vocabulary. Moreover, with [230 languages becoming extinct between 1950 and 2010] (https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/saving-dying-disappearing-languages-wikitongues-culture?), what exactly is a rich vocabulary? -Is it the number of words one knows in a particular language? OR -In a truly globalised world, is it one who converses in several languages such as English, Latin, Mandarin and Cantonese? OR Someone who speaks a rich language such as [Greek](https://www.tornosnews.gr/en/greek-news/38898-greek-language-day-on-february-9-the-mother-of-all-western-languages.html)? OR The language keepers, who despite being displaced, globally have preserved their language [such as Hebrew](https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/the-beginnings-of-the-hebrew-language/)? OR Those speaking or forming their own [Lingua franca](https://www.britannica.com/topic/lingua-franca) which brings different groups of people together?
