Sergo Yeritsyan: The TV companies violate the law on language every single day
The TV companies violate the law on language every single day. First, we talk about the programs broadcast in other languages, let alone the programs in a correct, pure Armenian. Head of the State Language Inspectorate of Armenia Sergo Yeritsyan added that we hear such words and phrases on television, which are even hard to imagine. “The streets and television should never be identified with linguistic culture,” the head of the Inspectorate says.
The language Inspectorate has no leverage to bring to justice and is only limited to writing letters. The package of legislative amendments is ready, and according to Sergo Yeritsyan, the package is expected to be represented in the National Assembly.
“Language is such a powerful self-developing system that can protect itself, but we should not let it down,” Sergo Yeritsyan stresses. The details of the conversation in the program “Questioning the Powerholder”.
