"May I frame a question which I hope the Commission will feel free to answer simply yes or no. Wittgenstein told us that to choose a language is to choose a form of life. I think, therefore, that if we lose languages we lose forms of life. Does the Commissioner agree with me that it would be a tragedy for Europe if it loses languages such as Scots Gaelic, and Lowland Scots through neglect and that the lesser-used languages deserve greater encouragement than they get now?"@en1
