Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a result of this research, it can be concluded for the time being that there is no clear evidence to claim that the Ryukyuan language is related to the Austronesian languages, Korean, or Ainu. Apparently more research needs to be done. We also need to look into the existing hypotheses regarding the genealogy of the Ryukyuan language (e.g., such as a Austorenesian-Ryukyuan hypothesis).
