Answer:

This will help you

Step-by-step explanation:

The Potawatomi Language is endangered because many people don’t speak it anymore. One of the main reasons that a language becomes extinct or endangered is that they lack written documentation. As they are only spoken languages, and they die off as the last speakers die off. Another reason why it is endangered is that It is difficult to learn especially if the last native speaker aged and can’t teach you it even if they wanted to. Finally Potawatomi language cannot be written down only spoken and this also makes it very difficult to help it survive because you need to learn to speak not write.
