Abstract
Language loss among youth is a causal threat to the enrichment of society, identity, and cultural stability across the colonial societies of the world. In the context of empirical analysis and policymaking, ethnographic systems are still unexplored in the humanities discipline, even though multilingualism is advantageous and mobilized to act in an ethical manner towards a stable environment. Yet, some languages enjoy the status of dominance and hierarchy in multilingual settings across the globe, including Pakistan, due to their colonial impact. The study adopts semi-structured interviews from 20 participants from Karachi and Hyderabad setting of the Sindh, Pakistan, considering the urban and Rural settings of the context. Participants reflect on responses with colonial impact, which has its dominance on the regional languages of Pakistan.
