Itelmen, or Western Itelmen and formerly known as Kamchadal, is a language belonging to the Chukotko-Kamchatkan family on
the east edge of Russia, traditionally spoken in the Kamchatka Peninsula. Fewer than a hundred native speakers, mostly elderly,
in a few settlements in the southwest of Koryak Autonomous Okrug, remained in 1993. The 2002 Census counted 3,180 ethnic Itelmen,
virtually all of whom are now monolingual in Russian. However, there are attempts to revive the language, and it is being
taught in a number of schools in the region. (Western) Itelmen is the only surviving Kamchatkan language. It has two dialects,
Sedanka and Xajrjuzovo (Ukä). |
