Manzura Uldjabaeva
Manzura Uldjabaeva (born 1952 in Khujand) is a Tajikistani artist and one of the last speakers of the dying language J'Kabaro. She has been working closely with dictionary authors to make sure her native language is properly cataloged as it progresses into extinction. In 2010 Manzura attended the international board meeting for Languages of utmost distinction (LOUD) to give her speech on her language, in her language. Not surprisingly no one in the meeting understood her and her language blew over as a hoax [1]
