Manx - Manx (English spelling)

Japanese: マンクス語 - マンクスご(英語表記)Manx
Manx - Manx (English spelling)
A Gaelic language. It is spoken on the Isle of Man and is also called Manx. It is an offshoot of Irish, but the initial state of the language is unclear. The first Manx document was a translation of The Book of Common Prayer (around 1610), and most of the extant manuscripts written in the 18th and 19th centuries are related to religion. In this language, not only has initial nasalization been achieved, but the phonemic function of palatals has also been partially lost.

Japanese:
ゲーリック語の一つ。マン島で行われた言語で,マン島語とも呼ばれる。アイルランド語より分派したものであるが,初期の言語状態はよくわからない。マンクス語の文献は《祈禱書The Book of Common Prayer》の翻訳(1610ころ)が最初であり,以後18~19世紀に書かれた現存する写本類も,そのほとんどが宗教関係のものである。この言語では語頭における鼻音化のみならず,口蓋音の音素的機能も一部失われている。
