dc.description The study aimed at finding the impact of the couples’ attitude on the use of Ethnic Community Languages (ECLs henceforth) in urban centers, in Tanzania. The assumption was that, any attitude someone has towards something, might influence the act on such a thing hence the attitude of couples towards ECLs may have an impact on how they view and act towards them, which may in turn accelerate their survival or death. The study employed a sample of 10 couples from endogamous families and 10 couples from exogamous families who were selected through purposive sampling technique. The study revealed that, there were no major perceived differences on the attitude towards ECLs between the endogamous and exogamous families. It was also noted that, the future of ECLs is in vain since they are not transmitted to children born in these two family groups. Therefore, there is a possibility of having a new generation of children who know nothing about ECLs.
