Scientists trying to save Siberian tongues

Moscow, Russia (Russia IC): Scientists try to save Siberian tongues by teaching them to Siberian population, but this makes the situation worse. Since teaching covers one basic dialect of a language, those, who are used to other dialects, conceive it as an incorrect version of their own tongue. This leads to total loss of a dialect. Another problem in conserving dying languages is the lack of written language - one third of Siberian languages lost their written variant. Scientists are currently working on alphabets to said languages.
