2. Why is language planning essential in any country? What are the factors which influence language planning?

“Language planning is deliberate language change; that is; changes in the systems of language code or speaking or both that are planned by organizations that are established for such purposes or given a mandate to fulfill such purposes. As such, language planning is focused on problem-solving and is characterized by the formulation and evaluation of alternatives for solving language problems to find the best (or optimal, most efficient) decisions” __Rubin and Jernudd
