Karelian language
Karelian language (''karjala'', ''karjal'' or ''kariela'') is a Finnic language spoken mainly in the Russian Republic of Karelia. Linguistically Karelian is closely related to the Finnish dialects spoken in eastern Finland and some Finnish linguists even classified Karelian as a dialect of Finnish. Karelian is not to be confused with the Southeastern dialects of Finnish, sometimes referred to as ''karjalaismurteet'' ('Karelian dialects') in Finland.〔
There is no single standard Karelian language. Each writer writes in Karelian according to their own dialectal form. Three main written standard have been developed, for North Karelian; Olonets Karelian; and Tver Karelian. With the exception of Tver Karelian, all variants are written with the Latin-based Karelian alphabet, though the Cyrillic script has been used in the past.
==Classification==
The Karelian language belongs to the Finnic branch of the Uralic languages, and it is closely related to Finnish.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eki.ee/books/redbook/karelians.shtml )〕 Finnish and Karelian have common ancestry in the Proto-Karelian language spoken in the coast of Lake Ladoga in the Iron Age and Karelian forms a dialect continuum with the Eastern dialects of Finnish.〔http://www.helsinki.fi/hum/sugl/oppimat/imsjohd/suomi.html〕 Earlier some Finnish linguists classified Karelian as a dialect of Finnish, sometimes known in older Finnish literature as ''Raja-Karjalan murteet'' ('Border Karelian dialects'), but today, however, Karelian is seen as a proper language. Besides Karelian and Finnish, the Finnic subgroup also includes Estonian and other minority languages spoken around the Baltic Sea.
