Nearly 5,000 of them are expected to disappear by the end of this century. The threat is all too real for Syriac, which is used only by 1 percent of 15,000 Syriacs in Turkey today. However, Syriac has a special place among the thousands of languages that are faced with the threat of extinction. It is one of the few languages that has a written literature. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.turkishdailynews.com.tr/article.php?enewsid=87039 " target="blank">www.turkishdailynews.com.tr/article.php?enewsid=87039 </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
