Mission
One of its missions is to scientifically deal with socio-linguistic data. It must therefore act as an observatory of the Breton language (Arsellva ar brezhoneg) by publishing these data, and it must advise communes for bilingual signage and place names. It is the support of TermBret, the cooperative terminology service which publishes glossaries as specialty. Finally, it assists individuals, administrations and businesses who want to use the Breton language (42 administrations, associations or companies have made an appeal from 1 July 1999 to September 15, 1999).

Famous quotes containing the word mission:
“It is the mission of the twentieth century to elucidate the irrational.”
—Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907–1961)
“I cannot be a materialist—but Oh, how is it possible that a God who speaks to all hearts can let Belgravia go laughing to a vicious luxury, and Whitechapel cursing to a filthy debauchery—such suffering, such dreadful suffering—and shall the short years of Christ’s mission atone for it all?”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.”
—Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
