This statement shows why a larger group has a powerful language and that can take over a smaller language with less power.
A larger group of people can take away the smaller groups powerful language and the smaller group can not take the powerful language away because they have less power
A powerful stronger language means that they can take over a smaller group of people because they have the power to take it away from them.
