Abstract

This article proposes a way to name in Basque the languages of the world. The proposal has been done as a consequence of the communicative need: when trying to give Basque names to the language names mentioned in the Review of the World’s Languages that UNESCO asked us to do, we had to come up with names we did not have, since most of the language names mentioned in the review have not been codified yet by the Basque Language Academy. Thus, in this article we explain the decisions taken and the criteria used to name the languages mentioned in the review. We do not propose Basque names for all the languages of the world, but just for the languages mentioned in the review. The list we provide contains more than 1,000 Basque names.
