Abstract

This research investigates the design and development of a Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) application to preserve and promote endangered languages in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. The study looks into the region's languages' distinct linguistic traits and how they might be commendably integrated into a mobile learning environment. The study underscores the importance of technology in language preservation, the necessity of community involvement, and MALL's potential to improve language acquisition among younger generations. The report finishes with recommendations for future research and development in MALL for endangered languages.
