language reform
Language reform refers to efforts aimed at changing or improving a language's structure, usage, or rules. This can include simplifying grammar, updating vocabulary, or making spelling more consistent. The goal is often to make the language more accessible and easier to learn for speakers and learners alike.
Reforms can be driven by various factors, such as social changes, technological advancements, or the desire for greater inclusivity. For example, the Academy of the Hebrew Language has implemented reforms to modernize Hebrew and make it more relevant to contemporary society. Similarly, gender-neutral language initiatives seek to promote equality and reduce bias in communication.
