How can social media help keep endangered languages alive? This book explores how Instagram was used to connect young people with the Pontic Greek dialect, offering a fresh perspective on digital language preservation. Drawing on surveys, interviews, and real-time interactions, it highlights how social media can foster cultural awareness, identity, and learning beyond traditional classrooms.What makes the study distinctive is its practical approach: instead of focusing only on theory, it tests teaching methods directly with users through quizzes, polls, stories, and reels. It demonstrates how language preservation can naturally blend into daily online habits. Readers will see how digital innovation links heritage with inclusion and equity, especially for underserved communities.Accessible and practical, this book will appeal to educators, cultural organizations, researchers, and anyone interested in language and digital engagement. It also provides a scalable case study that can inspire efforts to support other minority or endangered languages worldwide.
