My name is Eric Reid I am a third year English major at Rutgers University and I am excited to research the endangered Sherpa language of eastern Nepal. I have visited Nepal and hold a deep reverence for the culture and the beautiful Himalayan mountain range that makes this country at once other-worldly and isolated. I was not surprised to see that Nepal is home to no shortage of endangered languages because during my visit there I personally witnessed the variety in dialects between villages. There are hundreds of different ethnicities in Nepal despite the fact that it is a country roughly the same size as the U.S State of Georgia.
