We are a new publishing company specialising in minority languages.

No language left behind


One of our founding principles is that all languages should be treated equally.

Whilst bookshops are full of textbooks in French, German and Spanish, it can be difficult to find affordable English textbooks for languages such as Frisian, Byelorussian or Sorbian. We aim to change that.

We realise that many publishers would not consider producing books on minority languages as the profit margin is deemed by them to be low, but we believe there is a bigger issue at stake here. Many languages are dying for lack of materials. Whilst one textbook or phrasebook will not save a language, it will show that people still take that language seriously. Here at RA Languages, we take all languages seriously!
