E-Book Overview

The University of Michigan, 2001. — 15 p.
Several attempts have been made over the last century to clarify the origins of the Ainu language (Batchelor 1889), (Sternberg 1933), (Patrie 1982). None of them has yet been succesful, since all of them involved the method of straight comparisons. It is obvious that we will not achieve any positive results until we are comparing modern languages and not the reconstructions of the proto-languages. Some steps toward the reconstruction of the Proto-Ainu (PA) were proposed by Hattori Shiro (Hattori 1967).
