Another Precinct Heard From
Just signed contracts with TEAS Press for Azerbaijani editions of
A Song of Ice and Fire
. A first for me.
This marks the forty-seventh different language that Ice & Fire has been translated into. Not half bad. And moving in on the half-century mark.
Makes me wonder how many living languages we have on the planet at the moment. Not counting Klingon and Dothraki and other fictional tongues.

In the next 100 years, about 50% of them will no longer be spoken.
I can recommend to you the Living Languages Institute, a non-profit dedicated to documenting, recording, and preserving endangered languages.
I am not a member, just someone interested in languages.
