Linguistic Legislation

Linguistic legislation refers to laws or official policies that regulate the use of languages within a country or region. These laws can determine which languages are used in government, education, legal systems, and public services. They aim to protect linguistic diversity, promote national identity, or establish a standard language for official purposes. Essentially, linguistic legislation formalizes decisions about language use to ensure effective communication, cultural preservation, or social integration, depending on a country's goals and context.
