@@nathanmerritt1581 I mean as an Okinawan born outside the island it’s understandable if you know the history behind immigrants from Okinawa to South America. In my country unfortunately our elders were not allowed to talk in public in Okinawan and Japanese, they felt obligated to educate their children in Spanish or Portuguese because their children had a different nationality and they wanted to avoid alienation. My grandparents spoke Uchinaaguchi so good but they didn’t want to teach it to my parents. Now, I had to learn Japanese and English to be able to study Uchinaaguchi as most of the books where I can learn the language are just in Japanese and some in English.

You're right. I hear it now. Weird how some dying east Asian tongues sound very Korean. For instance, Manchu, to me, sounds like a combination of Korean and Mandarian.
Ahh, I found a song a long time ago that I've never been able to get the lyrics to because it turned out it was in Uchinaaguchi. I asked one of my Japanese friends if he could help me with it and he told me I was on my own. 😂

@@KertPerteson Then explain how they become less similar the further back in time you go, rather than more similar. Just like Altaic, Japanese' & Korean's similarities are much more likely to be a result of a sprachbund than genetic relation.
@@isaac4273 yeah dude that’s how it works on the internet, you speak whatever language you want and then you can just translate it to your language so there’s no more barriers… that’s the beauty of it
As a Japanese speaker it sounds definitely similar to Japanese but I can't understand it if I don't focus. There's lots I don't understand but I think a good amount of the more basic grammar particles, plus some words here and there are similar, and I can kinda tell where any given sentence is by the inflection.

In São Paulo there is the first school of Uchinaguuchi!! Made in 2008 by the efforts of a handful of volunteers. There's a grammar book (knowing basic Japanese hleps) and dictionary too (this one theres both Portuguese and English versions). And they need students!! It's free, by the way, since it's a cultural voluntary effort.
@@julianoyoshiro9008 it's called Colégio Exatus, in Tatuapé, São Paulo!! It's been some years since I've visited, so make sure to call there and check if they're still around that area. I think there were two other locations in the city too, but I'm not sure..
There's also Fija Byron, he teaches online Uchinaaguchi classes. He's been teaching Uchinaaguchi for over 20 years now and is also very active in the revitalization and cultural reclamation movement. He's probably one of the most charismatic and well-known public figures in the Uchinaa cultural sphere. I've been learning with him for 5 months now and he's really an amazing teacher.
I wish I had been allowed more exposure to Okinawan language and culture as a child. My father was from Okinawa, my mother from way up north in Aomori from an old samurai family that heavily looked down on and discouraged the pairing. Growing up, my maternal grandmother did everything in her power to limit any Okinawan influence on my upbringing.
I'm Uchinanchu. I understand Japanese and can speak a little. But, when we go to Okinawa and visit family, my mom starts rapping in Uchinaguchi and I'm completely lost. I understand like 20% of what they're saying. With this lady I understand only about 10%.
I’m a 3rd gen Japanese Brazilian, but my grandparents were both from Uruma in Okinawa. My grandparents still speak Uchinaguchi but they haven’t spoken it much because they never thought they’d need to use it at all, instead favor of Portuguese and Japanese. I now want them to teach me Okinawan, and I want to be more in touch with my Okinawan heritage. I am proud to have Okinawan blood in my veins.
It sounds a lot like if japanese and Korean were mixed together. When I heard this ,it sounded a lot like as if it was influenced by the korean language itself.
Japonic and koreanic languages used to be grouped with Turkic languages under one family called the Altaic languages, but in recent years linguists have separated them into thre distinct families. I can see wanting to separate Turkic from that family but you can clearly hear the similarities between Korean and Japanese here.
@@SpoogebroI'm on the side of Japonic instead of Altaic, Tungusic is real and other yes but I still know how to joke I go with flow of Borean too sometimes for laughs
My wife is Korean. To me it sounds a lot like what her very old grandmother (90+ years old) use to speak when we would go back and visit her. A very old, slower dialect with Japanese thrown in. I use to love speaking to her because I knew more Japanese than Korean at that time (now it is flipped) and it was slower so I could pick out the words. I could almost feel my way through the conversation which was so nice! I remember talking with her and my wife parents were shocked how we could communicate for hours in the garden but I couldn't understand anything with them at the dinner table.
I find it interesting how lots of people say the same thing when they hear Ryukyuan languages. It's sort of like hearing something that's similar to Japanese but yet unintelligible to you automatically equals "Korean" 😂
@@matthewtopping2061 I speak a European language natively but I've studied Japanese for two years. I also listened to a lot of traditiinal Korean music but I know nothing about the Korean language other than getting used to the sound and rhythm of Korean. The language in this video is like 100% Korean-sounding to me.
For some reason, this is what my grandmother sounded like when I was falling asleep in the other room. I'd be sat up trying to understand her but still half asleep. She'd be straight up just speaking english with a french canadian accent and this is what it would sound like.
as a japanese guy,i was able to pick up numbers and some words like satsumaimo, ikusa (kinda archaic word for war), watashi, doko de etc but even if i focus i understand like 10 percent of whats spoken. it feels like im trying to understand a language i recently started learning lol
