The Last Nivkh Chieftain. One man determined to save his people and culture from oblivion
The Nivkh are the indigenous people of Sakhalin Island in the Russian North. Since their lands were discovered by explorers from the mainland, they have undergone assimilation by the Japanese and persecution by the Soviet government. They were banned from practising their culture and their language was largely forgotten. Since the Nivkh language didn’t have a written form, it was an almost impossible task to preserve it in the reality faced by the Nivkh after being discovered by the outside world. Many Nivkh legends, beliefs and traditions were lost. However, current Nivkh chieftain, Vladimir Sangi, believes it is possible to restore the Nivkh language and culture. He co-authored the alphabet of the Nivkh language which has hugely contributed to its preservation. Still, there is a long wa...

The Sound of the Nivkh / Gilyak Language (Numbers & Story)
Nivkh (Нивхгу/Nivxgu) Nivkh or Gilyak is a language isolate spoken by about 1,000 people in Outer Manchuria along the Amgun and Amur rivers and part of Sakhlin Island. There are three main dialects: Amur, East Sakhlin and North Sakhlin, with only limited mutally intelligibilty between them. Nivkh is unrelated to any other language, though is sometimes included in the Paleosiberian group of languages for convenience. Nivkhs living along the Amur river call themselves Nivh, while those on Sakhlin are known as N'ivhgn-N'igvn, meaning 'man'. The term Gilyak is the name given to the Nivkhs by the neighbouring Manchus. Nivkh first appeared in writing in the 1880s in a Nivkh-Nanai primer compiled by a missionary. A Latin-based alphabet for Nivkh was used between 1931 and 1953, when a switch wa...

This is an audio version of the Wikipedia Article: Nivkh people Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago. Learning by listening is a great way to: - increases imagination and understanding - improves your listening skills - improves your own spoken accent - learn while on the move - reduce eye strain Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone. You can find other Wikipedia audio articles too ...

However, current Nivkh chieftain, Vladimir Sangi, believes it is possible to restore the Nivkh language and culture. He co-authored the alphabet of the Nivkh language which has hugely contributed to its preservation. Still, there is a long way to go for the Nivkh people, as very few of them today can speak their native tongue. There’s also the problem of the commercialisation of Nivkh culture, where original traditions are modified to create a money-making tourist spectacle.
Another problem is that even the Nivkh themselves disagree on what makes a Nivkh. While some consider mixed-race marriages not an obstacle to passing Nivkh culture to their children, others believe that the only true Nivkh are those who have Nivkh fathers. In any case, Nivkh culture and language are not completely extinct yet, as some of its people are trying to preserve and recover their traditional holidays, crafts, art and cuisine. But with the Nivkh population only around 5,000, the question is whether their culture is facing a revival or the last days of its decline?

Nivkhs are the natives of Sakhalin island in the Russian Far East, Siberian abrogenes. Nivkh language is unique and doesnt belong to any known family. Nivkh are of very short statue (men 160 cm) and unlike mongoloids they are relatively dark skinned. Nivkh beliefs are similiar to those of Ainu (cult of bear). Нівхи - аборигени острова Сахалін.

Nivkh does not appear to be related to any other language, making it a language isolate. For classification convenience, it is included in the group of Paleosiberian languages. Many words in the Nivkh language bear a certain resemblance to words of similar meaning in other Paleosiberian languages, Ainu, Korean, or Tungusic languages, but no regular sound correspondences have been discovered to systematically account for the vocabularies of these various languages, so any lexical similarities are considered to be due to chance or to borrowing. The Nivkh language is included in the controversial Eurasiatic languages hypothesis by Joseph Greenberg. Michael Fortescue (1998) suggested that Nivkh may be related to the Mosan languages (American Indian languages of British Columbia). In 2011, Michael Fortescue argued that Nivkh, which he also refers to as an "isolated Amuric language", is in fact related to the Chukotko-Kamchatkan languages, forming a Chukotko-Kamchatkan-Amuric language family.
The Nivkh language belongs to the Paleo-Asian languages as a separate unit, unconnected to any other group or subgroup. It is connected to the Chukchi-Kamchatkan and Altai languages by typological similarities and, in the opinion of several academics, also to North American Indian languages. Japanese linguists Katzunobu Izutsu and Kazuhiko Yamaguchi regard Nivkh to be one of the ancestors of modern Japanese. Nivkh lands, as entire Sakhalin were claimed by Japan.
The Nivkh language has eight parts of speech, there are no adjectives, their semantic equivalents are quality verbs. In the Amur dialect nouns, pronouns and numerals have 8 cases, in East Sakhalin – 7. The verb has categories of voice, mood, aspect, tense (future and non-future), number, person and negation.
--------------------------
Nivkhi mtDNA haplotypes (maternal genes) appear to be Asian in pattern and are highly distinctive when compared to the New World populations. Likewise, the Ainu (of Sakhalin) mtDNA pool seems very similar to those of Tungusic peoples.

Nivkh (Нивхгу/Nivxgu)
Nivkh or Gilyak is a language isolate spoken by about 1,000 people in Outer Manchuria along the Amgun and Amur rivers and part of Sakhlin Island. There are three main dialects: Amur, East Sakhlin and North Sakhlin, with only limited mutally intelligibilty between them.
Nivkh is unrelated to any other language, though is sometimes included in the Paleosiberian group of languages for convenience. Nivkhs living along the Amur river call themselves Nivh, while those on Sakhlin are known as N'ivhgn-N'igvn, meaning 'man'. The term Gilyak is the name given to the Nivkhs by the neighbouring Manchus.
Nivkh first appeared in writing in the 1880s in a Nivkh-Nanai primer compiled by a missionary. A Latin-based alphabet for Nivkh was used between 1931 and 1953, when a switch was made to the Cyrillic alphabet.

Nivkh people
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Nivkh (also Nivkhs, Nivkhi, or Gilyak; ethnonym: Nivxi; language, нивхгу - Nivxgu) are an indigenous ethnic group inhabiting the northern half of Sakhalin Island and the region of the Amur River estuary in Russia's Khabarovsk Krai. Nivkh were traditionally fishermen, hunters, and dog breeders. They were semi-nomadic, living near the coasts in the summer and wintering inland along streams and rivers to catch salmon. The land the Nivkh inhabit is characterized as taiga forest with cold snow-laden winters and mild summers with sparse tree cover. The Nivkh are believed to be the original inhabitants of the region, and to derive from a proposed Neolithic people that migrated from the Transbaikal region during the Late Pleistocene.The Nivkh suffered heavily from foreign influences, the first of which was the migration of the Tungusic peoples. Later, Qing China forced the Nivkh to pay tribute to them. In the 1850s–1860s, Cossacks of the Russian Empire annexed and colonized Nivkh lands, where they are a small, often neglected, minority today. Today, the Nivkh live in Russian-style housing and with the over-fishing and pollution of the streams and seas, they have adopted many foods from Russian cuisine. The Nivkh practice shamanism, which is important for the winter Bear festival, though some have converted to Russian Orthodoxy.As of the 2002 Russian Federation census, 5,287 Nivkh exist. Most speak Russian today, and about 10 per cent speak their indigenous Nivkh language. Nivkh is considered a language isolate, although it is grouped, for convenience, with the Paleosiberian languages. The Nivkh language is divided into four dialects.

The Nivkh are the indigenous people of Sakhalin Island in the Russian North. Since their lands were discovered by explorers from the mainland, they have undergone assimilation by the Japanese and persecution by the Soviet government. They were banned from practising their culture and their language was largely forgotten. Since the Nivkh language didn’t have a written form, it was an almost impossible task to preserve it in the reality faced by the Nivkh after being discovered by the outside world. Many Nivkh legends, beliefs and traditions were lost.
However, current Nivkh chieftain, Vladimir Sangi, believes it is possible to restore the Nivkh language and culture. He co-authored the alphabet of the Nivkh language which has hugely contributed to its preservation. Still, there is a long way to go for the Nivkh people, as very few of them today can speak their native tongue. There’s also the problem of the commercialisation of Nivkh culture, where original traditions are modified to create a money-making tourist spectacle.
Another problem is that even the Nivkh themselves disagree on what makes a Nivkh. While some consider mixed-race marriages not an obstacle to passing Nivkh culture to their children, others believe that the only true Nivkh are those who have Nivkh fathers. In any case, Nivkh culture and language are not completely extinct yet, as some of its people are trying to preserve and recover their traditional holidays, crafts, art and cuisine. But with the Nivkh population only around 5,000, the question is whether their culture is facing a revival or the last days of its decline?

Nivkhs are the natives of Sakhalin island in the Russian Far East, Siberian abrogenes. Nivkh language is unique and doesnt belong to any known family. Nivkh are of very short statue (men 160 cm) and unlike mongoloids they are relatively dark skinned. Nivkh beliefs are similiar to those of Ainu (cult of bear). Нівхи - аборигени острова Сахалін. Нівхська мова є унікальною, без подібних на неї. Нівхи - найдревніше населення далекого Сходу (палео-азіати). Нівхи - малого росту (мужчини - 160 см) і на відміну від монголоїдів, нівхи відносно темношкірі. На землі залишилося всього бл. 5000 нівхів і лише бл. 300 носіїв нівхської мови.
Nivkh does not appear to be related to any other language, making it a language isolate. For classification convenience, it is included in the group of Paleosiberian languages. Many words in the Nivkh language bear a certain resemblance to words of similar meaning in other Paleosiberian languages, Ainu, Korean, or Tungusic languages, but no regular sound correspondences have been discovered to systematically account for the vocabularies of these various languages, so any lexical similarities are considered to be due to chance or to borrowing. The Nivkh language is included in the controversial Eurasiatic languages hypothesis by Joseph Greenberg. Michael Fortescue (1998) suggested that Nivkh may be related to the Mosan languages (American Indian languages of British Columbia). In 2011, Michael Fortescue argued that Nivkh, which he also refers to as an "isolated Amuric language", is in fact related to the Chukotko-Kamchatkan languages, forming a Chukotko-Kamchatkan-Amuric language family.
The Nivkh language belongs to the Paleo-Asian languages as a separate unit, unconnected to any other group or subgroup. It is connected to the Chukchi-Kamchatkan and Altai languages by typological similarities and, in the opinion of several academics, also to North American Indian languages. Japanese linguists Katzunobu Izutsu and Kazuhiko Yamaguchi regard Nivkh to be one of the ancestors of modern Japanese. Nivkh lands, as entire Sakhalin were claimed by Japan.
The Nivkh language has eight parts of speech, there are no adjectives, their semantic equivalents are quality verbs. In the Amur dialect nouns, pronouns and numerals have 8 cases, in East Sakhalin – 7. The verb has categories of voice, mood, aspect, tense (future and non-future), number, person and negation.
--------------------------
Nivkhi mtDNA haplotypes (maternal genes) appear to be Asian in pattern and are highly distinctive when compared to the New World populations. Likewise, the Ainu (of Sakhalin) mtDNA pool seems very similar to those of Tungusic peoples.

Nivkh paternal Y-Dna:

Nivkh (Нивхгу/Nivxgu)
Nivkh or Gilyak is a language isolate spoken by about 1,000 people in Outer Manchuria along the Amgun and Amur rivers and part of Sakhlin Island. There are three main dialects: Amur, East Sakhlin and North Sakhlin, with only limited mutally intelligibilty between them.
Nivkh is unrelated to any other language, though is sometimes included in the Paleosiberian group of languages for convenience. Nivkhs living along the Amur river call themselves Nivh, while those on Sakhlin are known as N'ivhgn-N'igvn, meaning 'man'. The term Gilyak is the name given to the Nivkhs by the neighbouring Manchus.
Nivkh first appeared in writing in the 1880s in a Nivkh-Nanai primer compiled by a missionary. A Latin-based alphabet for Nivkh was used between 1931 and 1953, when a switch was made to the Cyrillic alphabet.

Nivkh are of very short statue (men 160 cm) and unlike mongoloids they are relatively dark skinned. They have got some Polynesian features.

SUMMARY
=======
The Nivkh (also Nivkhs, Nivkhi, or Gilyak; ethnonym: Nivxi; language, нивхгу - Nivxgu) are an indigenous ethnic group inhabiting the northern half of Sakhalin Island and the region of the Amur River estuary in Russia's Khabarovsk Krai. Nivkh were traditionally fishermen, hunters, and dog breeders. They were semi-nomadic, living near the coasts in the summer and wintering inland along streams and rivers to catch salmon. The land the Nivkh inhabit is characterized as taiga forest with cold snow-laden winters and mild summers with sparse tree cover. The Nivkh are believed to be the original inhabitants of the region, and to derive from a proposed Neolithic people that migrated from the Transbaikal region during the Late Pleistocene.The Nivkh suffered heavily from foreign influences, the first of which was the migration of the Tungusic peoples. Later, Qing China forced the Nivkh to pay tribute to them. In the 1850s–1860s, Cossacks of the Russian Empire annexed and colonized Nivkh lands, where they are a small, often neglected, minority today. Today, the Nivkh live in Russian-style housing and with the over-fishing and pollution of the streams and seas, they have adopted many foods from Russian cuisine. The Nivkh practice shamanism, which is important for the winter Bear festival, though some have converted to Russian Orthodoxy.As of the 2002 Russian Federation census, 5,287 Nivkh exist. Most speak Russian today, and about 10 per cent speak their indigenous Nivkh language. Nivkh is considered a language isolate, although it is grouped, for convenience, with the Paleosiberian languages. The Nivkh language is divided into four dialects.
