Ryukjin Dialect - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

Was gonna look for bits of the Ryukjin language or the lost language of the Jaegaseung, but this is an interesting discussion of languages in diasporic settings (outside the original homelands). Use in media can be dicey especially in cases like inside, but at least efforts were made in the cases of Manchu.

Jaegaseung (Korean: 재가승 , Japanese: 在家僧 , meaning monks who live in houses) were descendants of Jurchen people who lived in North-Eastern Ko

While I've not found much more about them yet (as much as I'd like to), inside are some bits & key differences I've so far found regarding them in relation to the Korean majority & the Jurchen origins in general. May well be a continuous presence through much of the history, but I do hope the diasporas abroad can rediscover themselves even whilst living among the surrounding dongpo (maybe alongside the Jejuan people) either way.
