Online Armenian School Bridges the Gap Between Eastern and Western Armenian
Posted on August. 6. 2024
Tun Online Armenian School has today announced that their language courses will teach both Eastern and Western Armenian.
Linguistic differences between Eastern and Western Armenian, as well as a lack of comprehensive online learning resources have long presented challenges for Armenians wanting to learn or strengthen their language skills.
A 2023 study by the Armenian National Academy of Sciences, revealed only an estimated 30% of the global Armenian diaspora possess fluency in either Eastern or Western Armenian. This decline in language proficiency threatens the cultural identity of Armenians abroad, with many Armenians fearing that Armenian is a dying language.
Online Armenian Schools are uniquely positioned to address this challenge.
