Japanese (日本語 "Nihon-go"in Japanese) is the official
language ofJapan,in East Asia. Japanese belongs to
the Japonic language family,which also includes the
endangered Ryukyuan languages.One theory says
Japanese and Korean are related,but mostlinguists no
longer think so. Other theories aboutthe origin of
Japanese are thatit related to the Austronesian
languages,the Dravidian languages,or
the controversial Altaic language family.Interestingly,a
different term is used for Japanese as a course ofstudy
by citizens: it is "kokugo" (国語), which means national
language.Nonetheless,Japanese is still referred to as 日
本語 by the Japanese.
Japanese uses three separate writing
systems:hiragana,katakana,and kanji.The first two
are phonetic systems and so show the pronunciation
of Japanese words,and kanji is the Japanese variation
of Chinese characters and show the meaning of
Japanese words.The three systems are used
interchangeably,and all three systems can often be
found in the same sentence.The three systems are
each reserved for differentpurposes.
Shinto and Buddhism are Japan's two
major religions. Shinto is as old as the
Japanese culture, while Buddhism was
imported from the mainland in the 6th
century. Since then, the two religions have
been co-existing relatively harmoniously
and have even complemented each other
to a certain degree.
The Ainu or the Aynu (Ainu: アィヌ, Aynu, Аину;
Japanese: アイヌ,Ainu; Russian: Áйны,Áĭny), also
known as the Ezo (蝦夷) in historical Japanese texts,
are an East Asian ethnic group indigenous to Japan,
the original inhabitants of Hokkaidō[6]
(and
formerly North-Eastern Honshū) and Russia (Sakhalin,
the Kuril Islands,Khabarovsk Krai and the Kamchatka
Peninsula).[7][8][9]
Official estimates place the total Ainu population of
Japan at 25,000. Unofficial estimates place the total
population at200,000 or higher,as the near-total
assimilation ofthe Ainu into Japanese societyhas
resulted in manyindividuals with Ainu heritage having
no knowledge oftheir ancestry.[1]
