Koro-- A "Hidden" Language

"Koro belongs to the Tibeto-Burman language family, which includes some 400 languages such as Tibetan and Burmese."

Please see the National Geographic video about Koro, a language that until recently was unknown to linguists. With only about 800 speakers left, Koro now ranks among the world's endangered languages.
