Ainu

Alternative forms

Pronunciation

Noun

アイヌ (Latin spelling aynu)

  1. human, man (as opposed to animals or gods)
  2. man (adult male human)
  3. an Ainu
  4. comrade
  5. (with possessives) father, husband
    コロ アイヌ
    ku=koro ainu
    my father

Usage notes

This spelling is more common than アィヌ.

The Ainu pronunciation of this term has only two morae, so academic materials may spell this term in kana with the small , or in romaji with a y, to explicitly indicate that the initial vowel is the single-mora diphthong ay (/ai̯/), and not the two-mora diphthong a i (/a.i/).

However, there is no three-mora term a i nu in the Ainu language, and most Ainu texts written in katakana use this spelling instead.
