Errusiera
Alaskan
Bai: errusiarrak izan ziren Alaska
kolonizatzen lehenak, eta 1867. urtean EEBBei saldu zieten
lurraldea. Hala ere, errusiarren aztarnarik bada oraindik
han. Batez ere, Alaska hegoaldean, erlijio ortodoxoa bizirik
dago, eta oraindik beren ama-hizkuntza errusiera duten jende
zaharra geratzen da. Adibide gisa, Ninilchik eskualdean
erabili izan diren izen batzuk dauzkagu hemen, Wayne Leman
han jaiotakoak guri utziak.
Ikus, nola ez, Inuit orria,
benetako natiboen berri izateko.

Russian in
Alaska
The first settlers and colonizers of
Alaska were the Russian, of course. In 1867 they sold the
territory to the US, but, yet, there is a russian legacy in
Alaska, mainly in the form of the orthodox religion.
Nevertheless, there are old people native speakers of
Russian yet. Here we have a small set of placenames (as an
example), from the Ninilchik peninsula of Alaska, courtesy
of Wayne Leman, who was born there.
- Check also the Inuit page,
of course, for the real natives.
