Language death is typically the final outcome of language shift and may manifest itself in one of the following ways:

  • Gradual language death: slowly, over a period of time
  • Bottom-to-top language death: cessation of the use of language except in special circumstances (e.g. liturgical language)
  • Top-to-bottom language death: when language shift begins in a high-level environment such as the government.
  • Radical language death: The disappearance of a language when all speakers of the language cease to speak the language
  • Linguicide (also known as sudden death, language genocide, physical language death, biological language death)
  • Language attrition: the loss of proficiency in a language at the individual level
