JAPONIC LANGUAGES 

As a Japanese, listening Ryukyuan conversation feels like I am lost in multiverse.

And I thought Japanese is was a language isolate. Andy you're a good teacher. These videos are better than language classes in school

私は日本各地の方言を勉強してますが、方言を勉強してる私でも、まだまだ知らない方言がありました。とても興味深い動画を取り上げて下さりありがとうございます。

I’m writing this, not to admire the video/language (tho let’s not stray away from the fact, that it is an awesome language family), but to tell that I’m happy to hear you’re taking your breaks whenever you need/want them!! You deserve your own free time as well, of course 😄💛 Okay, I lied about the first sentence, ‘cuz I do want to admire the video as well! Thank you for making all these language videos, ‘cuz they really excite and fascinate me! I love languages

My mother is Japanese and has roots in the Tohoku region, but I was surprised that the Tsugaru dialect at the northernmost tip of Honshu and the language of Okinawa have a strange match that retains the characteristics of ancient Japanese languages.

Who else didn't know there was a family of japonic languages and thought Japanese was its unique separate thing

Origin of Japanese: Haplogroup D1a2 and C1a1 are suggested to have arrived into Japan during the prehistory of Japan, during the Jōmon period. D has its highest diversity within Tibeto-Burmese groups and the oldest D lineage was found im western Tibet and one sample in the Altai region. Y-DNA haplogroup D1, making up 40% of the Japanese male lineages Haplogroup D1a2a is found among the Ryukyuans as well as the Ainus, and is t hought to have been the dominant paternal lineage of the Jōmon people. K2a/NO During the Yayoi period, haplogroup O1b2+O2a started to arrive and spreaded to every region of Japan. Just over half of Japanese men belong to haplogroup O. The vast majority belong to O1b2, a lineage found especially in Manchuria, Korea and Japan, and O2a, the main Han Chinese paternal li neage. A negligible percentage of the Japanese belong to the O1a and O1b1 The O-M175 haplogroup origin were Yunnan-Burma border，and separated into 2 branch, O1 (O-F265) and O2 (O-M122) O2 - Sino-Tibetan O1=O1a+O1b O1a Austronesians. O1b1 Austroasiatics O1b2 moved to Korea/Samhan people Approximately 3% of Japanese men belong to haplogroup N, a lineage that is thought to have originated in China some 35,000 years ago It is found at low frequencies in Korea and could have arrived with the Yayoi people. Alternatively, N1 could also have entered Japan via Sakhalin and Hokkaido, as it is present among eastern Siberia tribes Haplogroup N1 was found at high frequency in Neolithic and Bronze Age remains (4500-700 BCE) from the West Liao River valley in Northeast China (Manchuria) by Yinqiu Cui et al. Haplogroup N1 is found especially among Uralic and Turkic peoples nowadays, including among the Finns, Estonians and Sami in Northeast Europe K2b/Q Haplogroup Q is the dominant lineage of Native Americans, but originated in Siberia. it is possible that the tiny fraction of Japanese Q lineages came with Yayoi farmers. It is unlikely to have entered Japan through Hokkaido as it is not found among tribes at the eastern extremity of Siberia, nor among the Ainus. In conclusion, approximately 43% to 48% of modern Japanese men carry a Y-chromosome of Jōmon origin. The highest proportions of Y-DNA haplogroup C and D is found in northern Japan (over 60%) and the lowest in Western Japan (25%). This is concordant with the history of Japan; the Yayoi people of Sino-Korean origins having settled first and most heavily in Kyushu and Chūgoku, in Western Japan Haplogroup C is another extremely old lineage that left Africa approximately 60,000 years ago and spread over most of Eurasia. Two subclades of C are found in Japan: C1a1 and C2a. The first group to separate was C1, which colonized the Middle East and South Asia. One branch (C1a ) may have moved north to Central Asia and then split in two: One tribe moved to Europe (haplogroup C1a2,C1a2 is now nearly extinct in Europe.), while the other migrated to East Asia and survives today only in Japan (C1a1). Haplogroup C2a, representing also 3% of the population, is typically found among the Mongols and Siberians. It might have come with the Ainu through Sakhalin island and Hokkaido, or along with the Yayoi farmers from Korea. The second branch of C1 spread into South Asia, Southwest Asia, and Central Asia, where it is found today at low frequencies (C1b1a1). During this time, other C strains continued their eastward migration into Southeast Asia, where they split into four main regional clusters: The first branch colonized Indonesia, Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (C1b2a). A second branch went south to Australia, where they became the Aborigines (C1b2b). Another settled in the highlands of New Guinea (haplogroup C-P55). The fourth branch went as far as Northeast Asia (haplogroup C-M217) and is now widespread mainly among the Mongols (Kalmyks, Buryats, and Oirats), the Turkic peoples of Central Asia (Kazakhs, Karakalpaks, Uzbeks, Dolgans), and the East Siberian tribes (Chukchi, Itelmen, Nivks, Tungus). Furthermore, it is also common in moderate amounts among Chinese (Han, Hui, Manchus), Koreans, but also among several indigenous peoples of North America, including some Na-Dené, Algonquian or Siouan-speaking populations.

I think it's not appropriate that compares the numbers exampled in Japanese, Kansai and Kyushu : いち(ichi)、に(ni)、さん(san)、し(shi)、ご(go)、ろく(roku)、しち(sichi)、はち(hachi)、く(ku)、じゅう(juu) Because they are derived from the sound of each Chinese letter (Kanji). So they are kinds of loanwords, not original Japanese. The numbers in original Japanese are ひ(hi)、ふ(fu)、み(mi)、よ(yo)、いつ(itsu)、む(mu)、なな(nana)、や(ya)、ここの(kokono)、とお(to-).

Nice video thanks👍I love the japonic languages and Japan🇯🇵❤️

Fascinating. I find Miyako in particular very interesting. All those syllabic nasals and fricatives are just so cool. Great job.

*2:53** Spanish Speakers laughing rn*

Yes! I’m a huge proponent of the Ryukyuan languages (and the whole Japonic language family) and am learning three of them XD (Okinawan, Miyako and Yonaguni) so I was super excited to see this video にふぇーでーびる！ たんでぃがーたんでぃ！ ふがらっさ！

Gonna enjoy this, thank you!

This is a amazing channel! すばらしいです！　私は日本語べんきょうしています｡ 言語が好き！

Welcome Back Andy 🖤

Omg love this! Keep up the good work!!

Nice work. After three weeks, I didn’t know you did better on your videos! Anyways, first to like and comment.

glad to see you alive!

It's very good that you included both the spelling and verbal pronunciation of the numbers!

Já estava com saudades das postagens. Eu amo todas as postagens do I love lang.uages

You were sick? I was wondering why you haven’t posted any videos lately. Anyhow, glad you are better.

The number 2 in Proto Japonic 💀

I especially love hearing the tonal differences between the different languages

Lovely commentary videos!

Portuguese and Spanish speakers got shocked at the number 2 in proto japonic

Very informative and well made. Btw I like your voice, Andy. :3

Great work!

welcome back

Japanese and Korean, not counting writing systems such as カタカナkatakana、ひらがなhiragana、漢字kanji and 한글hangul of course, have almost the exact same grammar construction. Korean has grammatical particles like Japanese but as well same word order; I wonder where the connections are met here. There's more to grammar than just word order alone of course.

Hey Andy! I’m a big fan. I just wondered if you could maybe make a Celtic langauge video? I am not Celtic myself but i am interested in their language history. I am from Sweden. Greetings from Sweden to the Philippines! 🇸🇪❤️🇵🇭

3:57 ここからのって九州弁やなくて、標準語ちゃいますかね…？ 九州弁に詳しいわけでも無いんで自信ないんですけど、こんな標準語みたいな数え方するんですかね九州人って？

This video is nice! But the examples of Kansai and Kyushu should be Kun Yomi like Hachijo.

Amazing video PS: Will you reupload the one in which we had Sardinian, Catalan, Aromanian etc?

no Tohoku?🥺

hi, I'm from Okinawa!! i am learning okinawan. most people in okinawa nowadays speak standard Japanese, however elders know okinawan 沖縄人です！！

thank you for uploading again! :D

Proto Japonic: No. 2 Hispanics: Qué dijiste, wey?!, qué dijiste?! Repítelo! Anda repítelo! (Hispanics getting pissed off as heck while Proto Japonic walks back afraid) :v

I saw MS Toko at 1:50 and immediately thought "Microsoft Tokyo" like MS Comic Sans, lol

Welcome back

❤ nice vid

Andy, what happened to a lot of your videos? like the dialect of mandarin chinese from the RPC, The dutch language, russian language, etc.

Nice

Hi can you please do oromo language next?

I feel like people could learn a lot from you. Keep going, Andy!

OMG I thought that japan had a complex grammar... It has also a complex history! 8O

Hello Andy, why you deleted a majority of your videos? Can you please reupload them?

I really wish you mentioned the Peninsular Japonic

Greetings 🇵🇭🤝🇯🇵

Besides numbers, I'd like to see other Swedesh vocabs(

I wonder what the native Thai and lao numbers were like?because Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese their have sino numerals but them still use native number also .

Hello, Andy! I'm so glad you're back on RU-vid at last! Its been a long time! I have a video request for you. Can you please do a compilation of all Caucasian languages? Georgian Laz Svan Mingrelian The Adjarian dialect The Kakhetian dialect The Tushetian dialect The Imeruli dialect And probably more dialects of the Georgian language... Abkhaz Abaza Adyghe Kabardian Botlikh (however you spell it... it is a Caucasian language) Ubykh Avar Lezgin Dargwa Archi Ingush Chechen And many more languages spoken in the Caucasus...

Would you be interested in Boroic languages which come under Tibeto-Burman group of Sino Tibetan languages? You have already done two boroic languages: Bodo and Kokborok before. Some other boroic languages include Dimasa,Tiwa and Reang(kaubru) language. Though I don't think I would be able to help as volunteer because out of all of them I only speak Bodo. And I have recently heard that the bodo dialect spoken in West Bengal and Nepal is different from that of the one spoken in Assam. The one you used in your video is the standard dialect which is mostly spoken in Kokrajhar and Udalguri district of Assam and also preferred in bodo literature, textbooks and entertainment media like movies and songs. . And even in Assam we have individual differences from one district to another. In Udalguri itself there seem to be dialects different from standard one, I think its called darrang dialect.

For numbers, looks like there are two different sets, and standard Japanese isn't using the original one?

cool.

What happend to all your play lists?

0:26 I was never able to make Kuwait had Japanese

👍

Is there a social media page for you??

1st Comment!

Will you bring back the playlists?

Native and loan words should be compared seperately.

I'm a Japanese, have never seen the right flag. I wonder how much the symbol of Okinawa Prefecture represents the Ryûkyû Kingdom --- they had another flag completely different from that of Okinawa.

3:04 小見山さんや！！！

OLD JAPANESEとKANSAIの数え方の声ってあのチャンネルの狐面の人か？

My mom is fully Japanese (From Okinawa), and even though she speaks Japanese she says some Okinawa things.

Dope

learn japanese is more interesting especially when you're watch japanese story 😮 they like they language and we too

Know I know that there is a dental frictive in an actual japonic language.

Why did you cancel the reproduction lists😟 sorry for my english

I'm learning Japanese and I don't know what dialect I'm doing

The flag on the right looks like Target's logo lol.

The only numbers the various types of Japanese have in common, even across time, is nine and ten. This amuses me for some reason.

うわ～ 👀

Palau needs representation

Just like the video for Japan

🇲🇾❤️🇯🇵

I am jpanese, but listening to jpanese dialects is more difficult than listening to English.

Proto-Japonic: 2 Mexican: ¿qué?

I learned how to count in Japanese thanks to Naruto and the tailed beasts lol

Fun Fact: I'm A Little Japanese🎌🇯🇵

八丈語もいれたほうがいい

1.2 km 1.7 km 1.1 km 2.0 km 1.5 km 1.4 km 1.3 km 1.8 km 2.1 km 1.9 km 0.7 km

Modern Japanese is from Tokyo but, students learn Ancient Japanese and it's from Kyoto.

ナナチは可愛いですね

Proto-Japonic: "Puta" Latino: WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY TO ME?

なるほど、全然分からん

Први!

Wtf? The voice wasn't a robot voice? I thought your voice was generated 💀

Ñ

Oi, did i heard a spanish swear?

As an Japanese, everyone uses the southern Tenomese language in keyboard in our languages

why japanese has two sets of numbers?

Do you think korean and japanese languages are related somehow or are their similarities just convergent to each other?

Japan is very blak low fram turkin🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷😭😭

es probable que las lenguas japónicas sean de origen altaico

If Altaic thesis results true, even Ryukyuan would be a sister language of Gagauz, for example.

There are 2 japonic languages

0:24 北方四島も日本領土です。

I oppose this view. First, this theory and categorizing are marked as "要出典(Citation Needed)" in Japanese wikipedia. 0:52 Second, this theory is a confusing mixture of Cities, Prefectures(States), Regions and even Languages. Tokyo is a State. (A kin of California.) Nagoya is a City. (A kin of Detroit.) Kyushu is a Region. (A kin of the East Coast.) Satsugu is a Language. (A kin of Australian English.) If I compare California, Detroit, the East Coast and Australian English and theorize something, what do you think? I bet this theory is written by somebody who don't understand Japanese geography at all. Third, the Japanese government legally-recognizes the third language; アイヌ語(Ainu Language). Don't forget it. If you are looking for the act, google for "アイヌ文化振興法". Fourth, I'm a citizen of Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture(State), Tokai Region, Japan. Aichi Prefecture was long(200+ years) divided into two States; 尾張藩(Owari-han) and 三河藩(Mikawa-han) in Tokugawa Shogunate era. Their borders are sometimes considered as borders of the East Japan and the West Japan. (Not always.) Probably, "West Nagoya" in this theory means Owari-han. And "East Nagoya" means Mikawa-han. But Nagoya City was a PART OF Owari-han. Borders existed OUTSIDE of the City. So, "West Nagoya" and "East Nagoya" things are surely wrong. Geography is a tough thing to learn. The fact such as that Kansas City does NOT exist in Kansas State often beats me. But... please reassert the citations and regions. Thank you.
