- Okinawan_language abstract "Central Okinawan, or simply the Okinawan language (沖縄口/ウチナーグチ Uchinaaguchi [ʔut͡ɕinaːɡut͡ɕi]), is a Northern Ryukyuan language spoken primarily in the southern half of the island of Okinawa, as well as in the surrounding islands of Kerama, Kumejima, Tonaki, Aguni, and a number of smaller peripheral islands. Central Okinawan distinguishes itself from the speech of Northern Okinawa, which is classified independently as the Kunigami language. Both languages have been designated as endangered by the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger since its launch in February 2009.Though Okinawan encompasses a number of local dialects, the Shuri-Naha variant is generally recognized as the de facto standard, as it had been used as the official language of the Ryūkyū Kingdom since the reign of King Shō Shin (1477–1526). Moreover, as the former capital of Shuri was built around the royal palace, the language used by the royal court became the regional and literary standard, which thus flourished in songs and poems written during that era.Within Japan, Okinawan is not seen as a language unto itself but is referred to as the Okinawan dialect (沖縄方言, Okinawa hōgen) or more specifically the Central and Southern Okinawan dialects (沖縄中南部諸方言, Okinawa Chūnanbu Sho hōgen).Okinawan is undergoing language shift as it changes to Japanese. Language use in Okinawa today is far from stable. Okinawan is assimilating to standard Japanese because of the standardized education system, the expanding media, and expanding contact with mainlanders. The process is similar to de-creolization, which is when a creole and the colonizers language are constantly in contact and the creole slowly shifts to be more like the colonizers language. Okinawan is kept alive in theaters featuring a local drama called uchinaa shibai. These plays depect local customs and manners.".
