It's so weird to me that the idea of skill lose is novel to people? It's a simple fact of life to me. My grandmother and my mother lost their native tongues. Tagolag effectively died in my family when my grandfather passed away. He was the last to use it (even if just passingly). My Grandmother would tell him she didn't understand that language any more.

My mom used to know five languages fluently. Now she only knows English. She was surrounded by English monoligots, and so she lost the other four. Your brain will adapt to the enviroment you place it for better and for worse. It will shed high resource information as soon as possible.

So you should be real careful about what you let take root in that void.
