For March Around the World 2024, I watched this list of languages rarely heard in film: boxd.it/neAm4

Here's a list of the leftover possibilities, plus a few extras. Languages spoken in these films were represented in fewer than 250 films on letterboxd back March 2024. In the notes, the number is given after the language's name, where possible, as well as notes about availability back then in Canada.

imgur.com/OkmVscq shows the 100 most spoken languages in the world. Several of them, including Amharic, Khmer, Kinyarwanda, Maithili, Southern Sotho, Xhosa, and Zulu, are represented here. Though 70 million people use one of the world's 130 sign language as their first language, these languages are also rarely found in film. One of them is central to the plot of Saloum.

unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000187026 identifies vulnerable and endangered languages. Those represented here include: Ayoreo, Cayuga, Ojibwa/Ojibwe and Scottish Gaelic. Lombard, also listed by UNESCO, is related to the dialect spoken in Vermiglio.
