The LPP ield was formed in the early 1960s by language scholars interested in solving the language problems of new, developing and/or post-colonial nations.As claimed by many to be the pioneer in the ield of LPP, it was Haugen who introduced the term language planning in 1959. Haugen deined language planning as "the activity of preparing normative orthography, grammar and dictionary for the guidance of writers and speakers in a non-homogenous speech community" [2]. What Haugen described was later categorized as status planning [3], corpus planning [3] and acquisition planning [4].
