About Kampanamgapay
The Kampanamgapay Language (Kampanamgapay [kɐmpɐnɐmɐŋɐˈpaj]) is a minority language spoken by around 3,800 in Mikyo, primarily in the Outermost Islands County, used by the nation's Indigenous Yaeyamas. Kampanamgapay is the last surviving member of the Yaeyama branch of Austronesian Languages, and is classified as an endangered language. Kampanamgapay is an official language of the Outermost Islands County and a recognized minority language in Ishigagi and Gullu.
Kampanamgapay is related to other Austronesian languages such as Tagalog and the Formosan Languages, and thus shares many features with other languages in the family, such as Austronesian Alignment, reduplication, and a moderately small consonant inventory. Kampanamgapay is written with the Latin Alphabet, which was introduced by Spanish missionaries. Though used less commonly today than historically, it is still spoken in ethnic enclaves of Indigenous Yaeyamas and in some churches and schools in the Outermost Islands County.
