Language planning

Hi there kiddo!

Today, we'll learn about something called language planning.

Language planning is a process done by people in charge to decide what languages should be used in a certain place or situation.

Let's say you live in a country where people speak different languages. The people in charge might decide that the official language everyone should use in school and government is English. And they might decide that in other situations, like at home or in the market, people can use whatever language they want.

This helps everyone to communicate and understand each other better. It also helps to have a common language, so people can share information easily.

Language planning is important because without it, people might have trouble communicating with each other. So, it's like making a blueprint or a plan to make sure everyone can speak and understand each other.

I hope that helps you understand the concept of language planning!
