Aynu

The Aynu is an aborigin race in Japan and believed that they are Caucasian. Ainu people live in Hokkaido and Saccalin, there is less population now. They have their own language but have no written form. The world "Aynu" means to "human" and their habitat is concern to nature, everything has its owned by Kamuy or God. (You can find out more information about the Aynu at The Ainu Museum) or want to learn Aynu conversation, visit Ramat's Ainu Homepage (Japanese page viewable by Japanese viewer,NJWin or Twinbridge program)


Aynu language's Sound System

The Aynu Itak or Aynu language, is no longer in daily use and few living persons have actually spoken Aynu as their primary language. Aynu language has no written form and has very simple phoneme inventory. It has 5 vowels like Japanese and has fewer consonants than Japanese.
