Miyako language
The Miyako language ( ''Myaakufutsu'' or ''Sumafutsu'') is a language spoken in the Miyako Islands, located southwest of Okinawa. The combined population of the islands is about 52,000 (as of 2011). Miyako is a Southern Ryukyuan language, most closely related to Yaeyama. The number of competent native speakers is not known; as a consequence of Japanese language policy which refers to the language as the , reflected in the education system, people below the age of 60 tend to not use the language except in songs and rituals, and the younger generation mostly uses Japanese as their first language. Miyako is notable among the Japonic languages in that it allows non-nasal syllable-final consonants, something not found in most Japonic languages. ==Dialects== The most divergent dialect is that of Tarama Island, the farthest island away. The other dialects cluster as Ikema–Irabu and Central Miyako. An illustrative lexeme is ''Alocasia'' (evidently an Austronesian loan: Tagalog ). This varies as Central Miyako (Hirara, Ōgami) , Ikema , Irabu (Nagahama) , Tarama .
