are there any languages left to be discovered?

Answer 1

The last major group of languages to be discovered were the Dani languages of western New Guinea in the middle of the 20th century. They had remained unknown to the west because the area of New Guinea where they were discovered was previously considered to be uninhabited. There are no other equivalently large areas of the earth that remain unexplored. In the 1960s a group of people were discovered in a remote part of the Philippines called the Tasaday and their language was previously unknown. It was later discovered that their language was probably a dialect of another nearby language. There are groups of people in the remotest parts of the Amazon Basin that are still uncontacted by Westerners. There are not very many of them, but we do know that there are a few. They might speak languages that are different from their neighbors.

Answer 2

If you mean, "Are there any unknown natural languages?" Then, it's possible. There could be a tribe in deep, dark places we haven't found, what speak words we don't know.

But, if you mean, "Are the current languages going to remain static; so there will be no other languages", then certainly not. The one universal constant of human speech (other than the fact that humans speak ) is change. English came from middle english came from french and old english came from latin and gothic and germanic came from indo-european, etc, etc.
500 years from now, our language will probably be just as different.

Answer 3

Yes, definitely. New languages develop very quickly, and it is very hard to keep up with the changes in languages.

Answer 4

When we discover them, we'll know. I am sure someone will make up their own and I am sure there are languages morphing into new ones so that even if they arent new now, they will be.
