Welcome to Sherlenne's Wiki page.

My name is Sherlenne Francisco and I am a third year Psychology major student. I have never learned how to edit or work on a wiki page, so I am very excited to work on this project throughout the semester.

Tsakonian also known as Tsaconia or Tsakonia originates from the Greek origin and is from Arcadia, Greece. With about two to four thousand speakers, Tsakonian is considered to be critically endangered. There is a lack of younger generations to keep the language alive and running. The language is also 60% severely endangered including both Northern and Southern Tsakonian. The Northern Tsakonian language is mostly present in the Kastanitsa and Sitena villages. Southern Tsakonian on the other hand contains speakers from a bilingual community. Tsakonian is highly unpopular in the town of Leonidion because a fair amount of people do not speak Southern Tsakonian in this town compared to the others.
