- Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let's learn different languages/dialects together.
Special Thanks to Kainuguni (Yonaguni language blog)
The Yonaguni language, spoken by about 400 people on Yonaguni Island in the Ryukyu Islands, is a Southern Ryukyuan language closely related to Yaeyama. It is not officially recognized by the Japanese government, which refers to it as a dialect. UNESCO classifies it as one of Japan's most endangered languages, second to Ainu. The island of Yonaguni, the westernmost inhabited Japanese island near Taiwan, is notable for its hanazake beverage, Yonaguni horse, Ryukyu atlas moth, and winter gatherings of hammerhead sharks. It is also home to the Yonaguni Monument, a submerged rock formation discovered in 1986. Kaidā glyphs are pictograms from the Yaeyama Islands, and most studies on the pictographs focused on Yonaguni Island.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
It sounds a little bit like Japanese, but it is a completely different language.
Well, it is related.
As an Indian it sounds very strangely similar to some the languages in north eastern India .
It uses the same alphabet as japanese!Even the kanji, but the reading is different from Japanese kanji
Yonaguni is fascinating in that the two consonants "w" and "y" have undergone fortition: w shifted to b, and y shifted to z and then d.
Eg:
- 野菜 is "yasai" in Japanese, cognate with Mandarin yěcài. In Yonaguni, it is "dasai"
- The name of the island: 与那国 (Yonaguni) is "Dunan"
- 山 is "yama" in Japanese and "dama" in Yonaguni.
Intriguing 😊
Sorry what are you talking about, how could [w] be fortify into [b], also [y] is not even a consonant and [w] is a semi vowel, do you care to elaborate? I am not sure what phones phonemes you’re referring about since you use quotation marks I’d assume it’s phonemes you’re on about? Idk about your phonetic representation if that makes sense, ta.
@@hieudo4460 isn't it obv that they meant y as [j] or [ʝ]? 💀japanese romaji uses y for [j] so the elaboration is there, wikipedia says yonaguni originally had [ʝ] which fortified into [d], and semivowels can also be fortified as has happened in gaelic
This channel is amazing
Even language that we never know its hereee
Just based on the numbers alone it definitely shares roots with other japonic languages but it's easily one of the most isolated and removed from mainland japanese
Although I am partly Asian myself and know the "mainstream" Asian languages, the Yonaguni language has a positive kind of mystery, which is indescribably beautiful, like the background melody choice of yours, dear Andy. And thanks to the speaker. Arigatougozaimashita❣️😍❤️
✋😭
That’s really nice to hear, yeah it’s a beautiful language
@@goulven05 Nice to read you again❣️
@@RoseRoseRoseRoseRoseRose Thank you 🫡
What kind of asian?
Thank you from🇯🇵
Sounds a lot like Austronesian😮
Might just be the speaker's accent. I hear an Indonesian accent from both the speaker and the presenter
Yes !
It doesn't sound like Japanese at all and yet its clearly related if you compare the words, and I don't just mean the numbers.
This sounds like a mix of Minnan and Austronesian language
It is so cool how native speakers for these obscure languages (with 400 speakers) lend their voices to make these videos!
Nife debiru for making us learn more about the different Ryukuyu languages, this is precious, thank you! Much love to Ryukyu from this Brazilian!
Diz a lenda que o jiu-jitsu Brasileiro veio desse mesmo povo que migraram para o interior e fundaram os dojos
@@parsifal2299 É possível, mas soube que na verdade há tantas dialetos das línguas Ryukyu que são na verdade ininteligíveis entre si, podendo ser chamados de línguas independentes mesmo. Há alguns vídeos mostrando isso. Realmente, pelo que me disseram, a maioria dos nossos descendentes japoneses veio de Okinawa (ou das demais ilhas do reino de Ryukyu, não sei dizer ao certo).
Nossos descendentes deveriam fundar uma organização pra preservar estas línguas preciosas, ao invés de se promover o Nihongo como se fosse a única língua do Japão! Aproveito pra mencionar o povo Ainu, pois muitos ainda não sabem de sua existência, outra cultura muito interessante e bem mais antiga do país.
Sounds like Nihonggo-Austronesian.
Beautiful language.
Please video about Proto-Ryukyuan language: the ancestor of Yonaguni.
Bitter sweet as we learn about new languages we learn they are disapearing.
It's... almost like japanise but with a bit of something else, something unique.
wow! this is a very cool language!
Nice
Next can you do bouton japanese?
Some of the numbers and other words remind me of Tungusic languages such as Manchu .
Sounds more like an Austronesian language than Japanese

love you guys from manchuria ! I'm a huge fan of japanese culture.
bi nihon gurun be buyembi ！
Witam. Czy mówisz językiem Mandżurskim?
Jeśli tak, czy jest on podobny do języka Mongolskiego?
@iLolek10 sorry, what language is this ? I can't understand what you wrote.
@@fiyangga.yanggiri-hala
As you wrote You are from Manchuria. Province on north-east China.
My question is if you speak manchurian language?
If yes, can you see any similarities with mongolian language?
Or maybe with korean language?
@@iLolek10 yah, we have a lot of similarities in both languages. for example, how are you in mongolian sain bai nuu ? . in manchu sain no or saiyun ? and a lot of other words. but I'm not a native speaker of monglian, so I have no idea how many similarities are in two languages
@@fiyangga.yanggiri-hala
Thank you very much.
It is not easy to meet anyone who speak manchurian for me.
I was traveling in Mongolia when I was young. Living with mongolian family for more than a month. Then we go togerter to China, Beijing. Staying on borthere city Erlian. for two weeks. So I have listenning mongolian language everyday. Even learned some of it, just from listennin.
Would you take a part as a volunteer in one of Andy's video. If he decide to make comparison Manchurian and Mongolian?
Probably next, Iraqi Arabic and Persian?
Koryo-mar, please

Una noche más y copas de más
Tú no me dejas en paz, de mi mente no te vas
Aunque sé que no debo, ey
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara, tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está', que yo por ti cojo un vuelo
Y a Yonaguni le llego
Aunque sé que no debo, ey
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara
Tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está', que yo por ti cojo un vuelo
Y a Yonaguni le llego, ey
No me busque' en Instagram
Mami, búscame en casa
Pa' que vea' lo que pasa, ey
Si tú me pruebas te casa', ey
Ese cabrón ni te abraza
Y yo loco por tocarte
Pero ni me atrevo a textearte
Tú con cualquier outfit la parte'
Mami, tú eres aparte
Shorty tiene un culo bien grande, eh
De-demasiao' grande
Y yo lo tengo estudiao', ya mismo me gradúo
Y en la cara me lo tatúo
Vi que viste mi story y subiste una pa' mí
Yo que me iba a dormir, ey
En la disco habían mil
Y yo bailando contigo en mi mente
Aunque sé que no debo
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara
Tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está', que yo por ti cojo un vuelo

Pa' que ante' 'e que se acabe el año tú me des un beso
Y empezar el 2023 bien cabrón

Sound like it's not a Japonic Language🤔
I can say the same
Though jap is user it doesn't sound this way
The numbers sound like kun'yomi Japanese numbers tho
Sound can be misleading. Look at the written language.
@@YourCreepyUncle.written language has nothing to do with relation. Persian uses Arabic script buts it’s not even related to Arabic. Finnish uses Latin script but it’s not even related to English.
It is
Can you please
I thought it's just Bad Bunny's song 😅
.ASIA bro
Sounds like an Austronesian trying to speak Nihongo 😅
How similar is this dialect to Chinese?
Very different because it a different language and under different language family.
0 % similarity I would say😅
I think it is as close to Chinese as Arabic would be lol 😂
Don't get confused by the Chinese characters, those are used to represent meaning, not the sound (or the etymology) of words...
For instance:
貴方 could 基本ally 書rite 英語ish like 之is and still 読ad it as 普通al 英語ish, with 絶対tely 無 中国se 影響 何soever (you could basically write English like this and still read it as normal English, with absolutely no Chinese influence whatsoever)
That's basically how Japonic languages work for the most part
So Yonaguni is a dialect of Ryukyuan (not Japanese) if anything. Ryukyuan is not Japanese, Ryukyus is not Japan it is another country.
Ryukyuan and Japanese, including their respective dialects, both come from a common ancestral language...just like Romance languages for instance
@@xjmmjbnqfstjdijoj2044 They are different languages. The fascist of Japanese government is lie. Ryukyuan people is their own nation, by rights a separate country. Ryukyuan split off from Japanese at Kofun Era.
