    Ainu (アイヌ・イタㇰ, Ainu-itak), or more precisely Hokkaido Ainu, is a language spoken by a few elderly members of the Ainu people on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. It is a member of the Ainu language family, itself considered a language family isolate with no academic consensus of origin. It is classified as Critically Endangered by the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger.

    I was just in Hokkaido this past winter. Besides "hello", the Ainu people I met did not know any Ainu language. I asked the Ainu gentleman who worked at the museum how many native speakers are left, and he said none, although there are a few elderly people who can speak it somewhat. I also had the privilege of sitting in on a kamuynomi ceremony. The elder chanted in Ainu for 20 minutes. After I asked him about the words and he said he didn't know what they meant, he just memorized them and recited them.
    If you ever have a chance to go to Hokkaido, the Ainu people are such great wood carvers, prepare to bring lots of money to buy lots of gorgeous carvings, because that is a main source of income. The Ainu food was also excellent, although there are very few Ainu restaurants.

      There are some efforts to make the language ’’live again‘‘ like bilingual schools and languages and culture classes here and there but I doubt the efforts will bear any fruits.
      I lived in the countryside next to sapporo for years and like 99% of the people I met there, even my wife’s family who is part Ainu, don‘t have any interest in the language and culture.
      It’s more like a ’cute‘ folklore to them and none are interested in learning the language.

    It is sorrowful fate that most of ethnic minorities have been forced not to use their languages, to abandon their cultures and to acclimate to majority groups.
    They are often used to argue political issues even if the pressures towards them end.
    Ainu is also.
    As a Japanese and a descendant of Hokkaido settlers, I have been curious about Ainu and their culture, history and language since I knew who my ancestors were and where they came from. Also I have been concerned about the persecution against Ainu.
    Thank you for your excellent video.
    I hope this video will help Ainu be known more and more.

      ​@@anonymousbloke1 Native Americans are referred to as such because they're the first human population that migrated and inhabited the Americas. From an outsider perspective, they're the natives of that land compared to everyone who came after. They also developed into the groups they are today within America. Now one might debate if another group of people, like the Austronesians, were in parts of South America before the ancestors of the Native Americans, but even then those theoretical groups no longer exist and their impact, if it even exists, is miniscule. Overall the whole terminology and what people think as "native" and "indigenous" can get confusing and at times hostile, especially if one of these labels is given to only certain groups. This might also be the case within the Native Americans themselves since, as we know, the Inuit and other Eskimo-Aleut people of North America arrived in a much more recent migration out of Siberia compared to every other Native American group.

    The Ain-Pa Ainos are inhabitants of remote areas of Hokkaido and northern Onshu in northern Japan, and the Kuril Islands and the former Polish island of Sakhalin in Russia. The Ain live (wholly or partially) in Russia and Japan. The exact number of his descendants is unknown. It is believed that they had European facial features, some of them, according to ancient chronicles, rarely but occasionally ancient chronicles say that they had eyes the color of the sea or the sky, and their women were very beautiful, which contributed to their rapid mixing. with the Japanese. They descended part of their genetics from Russian "slave" tribes that migrated from the eastern Urals and gradually mixed with the Mongoloids.
    European languages also descended from them. The great names of Siberia and Russia, including Sakhalin and the Koryaks and I Koryaks of Kamchatka, may have been rii-ainos'aryans. They are distinguished from the Hokkaido group by geological and rheological evidence: the first Hokkaido humans appeared 18 days ago. They differ from the Yamato group of Japan in that they have much more body hair, and their hair, which is mostly black, is sometimes brown, and in the past, according to old chronicles, it is said that occasionally some of them Few were born with blue eyes. It is believed that they descend from the Russian Slavs of the Urals who were expelled to the east, searching for the rising sun.

      @SupahTrunks7 11 місяців тому +9

      Actually the Japanese government of the time reached out to the American government for advice on subjugating and assimilating the Ainu like America had the Native Americans. They tried boarding schools like the US used but had less success due to the proximity of the Ainu children to their families being much closer (Tho it was still devastating to the language). Disease also played a huge factor as the japanese government forced massive relocations of ainu people which lead to huge death tolls.
      Arguably the only reason we still have languages like Navajo today is due to the fact that they were so large to begin with and that America has been pressured to grant recognition of them. It wasn’t until the past couple decades that Japan even officially acknowledged they HAD indigenous people as their stance has always been that they are an ethnically homogenous nation.

      ​@@AJGress Well, I posted my answer to you with the web address, but for some reason it's not showing up. I reckon it has something to do with it containing a url... go figure.
      Anyway, you may find the website by going to the "Ainu language" article in the English Wikipedia, and then, under the "External Links" section, looking for one called "Ainu For Beginners", by Kane Kumagai.
      I must point out that I found some very minimal discrepancies between some things I had learnt years ago from ethnic Ainus, and the materials in this otherwise excellent source. Probably the one that stands out the most is that the word for "dog" is given as "シタ", while I clearly and distinctly recall reading back in 2008 (a whole life ago, alas!) in a now-disappeared blog (it would be awesome if I had taken screenshots and/or copied and pasted what was shown there, right?) by a Japanese author with Ainu ancestry, that the word for "dog" is "セタ". And mind you, we are talking about the very same variety of Hokkaido Ainu in here. Makes you wonder... It also makes me wanting to have some sort of sci-fi device or software that kept a track of every single website I visit in my life, and kept a copy of the ones most likely to disappear in the coming years. Anyway, enjoy the Ainu lessons, and have very happy holidays, AJ!

    Information:
    1)Ainus are most likely related to Mongolians. (And Mongolians are in the Altaic family, which Japanese is also in it)
    2)Their origin is not Japanese and they were harshly assimilated by the Japanese.
    3)The Ainus are almost extinct, very little left. So, this video is a miracle.
    4)Ainus migrated to nothern Japan from Siberia. You can tell they are not native.
    5)Japanese got Ainus to their state with "Treaty of Saint Petersburg (1875)"
    6) They had a religion named "Ainu no shūkyō", It is an animistic religion centered around the belief that Kamuy (spirits or gods) live in everything.

    • @jarekdupa687
      @jarekdupa687 Рік тому +13

      1) Altaic language family is widely disapproved by most linguists and it don't always mean that the people speaking related languages are genetically similar.
      4) The Ainu are descended from Hokkaido Jōmon peoples who have intermixed with various Paleosiberian peoples such as the Nivkh, recent research says that around 79.3% of their ancestry comes from the Hokkaido Jōmon. Most modern Japanese people have their ancestry from the Yayoi peoples that migrated to Japan from the (as most people agree) Korean Peninsula around 300 BCE - 300 CE, and they had intermarried with the native Jōmon people which had once inhabited almost every island on Japan and lived as hunter-gatherers in the Jōmon period (~14,000 to 300 BCE) before being introduced to rice farming by the Yayoi culture.
