  • “Northeastern” Hokkaido Ainu Dialects : a Statistical Perspective
    Title Observations on “Northeastern” Hokkaido Ainu dialects : a statistical perspective Author(s) Ono, Yohei Citation 北方言語研究, 9, 95-122 Issue Date 2019-03-15 Doc URL http://hdl.handle.net/2115/73722 Type bulletin (article) File Information 06_ono.pdf Instructions for use Hokkaido University Collection of Scholarly and Academic Papers : HUSCAP Northern Language Studies 9: 95-122(Japan Association of NoLS, 2019) Observations on “Northeastern” Hokkaido Ainu Dialects: A Statistical Perspective Yohei ONO (Graduate Student at the Open University of Japan) Keywords: Ainu, Homogeneity Analysis, lexicostatistics, Neighbor-Net, ordinal scale. 1. Introduction Hattori and Chiri (1960) recorded the lexicostatistical data of 19 Ainu dialects whose disappearance was imminent in the 1960’s. Since then, statistical analyses (Asai 1974; Lee and Hasegawa 2013; Ono 2015) have been conducted based on their data. However, Ono (2019, to appear) indicated that previous statistical analyses results were obscured by the assumption of a nominal scale in Hattori and Chiri’s (1960) data and that a statistical analysis assuming an ordinal scale succeeded in capturing the underlying information structure in their study, employing Biratori and Samani dialects as examples.1 This paper focuses on the results of an analysis of five northeastern Hokkaido dialects that were omitted due to space restrictions in Ono (2019, to appear). Therefore, for details regarding the statistical methods utilized in this paper, the interested reader can refer to Ono (2015; 2019, to appear). Since Asai (1974) classified Ainu dialects into three groups—Hokkaido Ainu dialects, typified by Nos. 1–13 in Figure 1, Northern Kurile dialects, typified by No. 22, and Sakhalin dialects, typified by Nos.

    Hokkaido Ainu Dialects: Variation from the Perspective of the Geographical Distribution of Vocabulary Mika FUKAZAWA Preparatory Office for National Ainu Museum (The foundation for Ainu culture) 1 INTRODUCTION • The aim of this study is to generate geographical maps and to describe the variations in Hokkaido Ainu dialects. • The Ainu language has three dialect categories: Hokkaido, Sakhalin, and Northern Kurils. • It is well known that “for Hokkaido, there are some differences in vocabulary, phonology, word formation, and the like between northeastern and southwestern dialects” (Tamura 2000: 3) 2 INTRODUCTION The Kamchatka Peninsula Sakhalin The Kuril Islands Hokkaido Honshu 3 INTRODUCTION • Regarding the Ainu dialects, the most important work on them was conducted by Hattori, Chiri, and their collaborators from 1955–1956. • Currently, few native speakers of Ainu exist, and collecting sufficient words and sentences through fieldwork is difficult. • My studies adopted geolinguistics for the Ainu language, referring to the audio and written materials that Hattori, Chiri, and other researchers have collected. 4 THE ATLAS OF AINU DIALECTS 5 AINU DIALECTS Hokkaido: 1.
