The European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (1992) seeks to protect and promote regional and minority languages in Europe. The objectives and principles defined by the Charter include the recognition of regional and minority languages as cultural assets. The Charter also commits the signatories to promote the study of, and research on, regional and minority languages. Bosnia and Herzegovina signed the Charter in 2005 and officially ratified it in 2010, applying it to seventeen regional and minority languages including Ladino and Yiddish. This paper examines the disparity between the obligations entered into and the actual state of affairs. It also investigates the linguistic repertoire and language ideologies of the Jewish community in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the extent and nature of its interest in revitalizing Ladino.

《欧洲区域或少数民族语言宪章》（1992年）旨在保护和促进欧洲的区域和少数民族语言。《宪章》确定的目标和原则包括承认区域和少数民族语言为文化资产。《宪章》还承诺签署国促进对区域和少数民族语言的研究。波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那于2005年签署了《宪章》，并于2010年正式批准该宪章，将其应用于包括拉丁语和意第绪语在内的17种区域和少数民族语言。本文研究了所承担的义务与实际情况之间的差异。它还调查了波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那犹太人社区的语言剧目和语言意识形态，以及其对振兴拉迪诺的兴趣的程度和性质。
