<b>Description:</b>
 
The Northern or Tundra Yukaghir language is one of only two Yukaghir languages. Last spoken in the tundra belt extending between the lower Indigirka to the lower Kolyma basin (69°N 154°E / 69°N 154°E / 69; 154). Formerly spoken in a much wider area extending to the Lena basin in the west.
The long mid vowels /eː øː oː/ are realized as diphthongs when stressed: they are [ie uø uo], respectively.
¹The uvular fricative /ʁ/ is realized as a stop [ɢ] after /ŋ/.
Syllable structure is CVC, i.e. up to one consonant can occur at the beginning or end of a word, and up to two in the middle.
Northern Yukaghir is largely head-final and dependent-marking: the default position for the verb is at the end of the clause, nouns are marked for case, adjectives precede nouns and relative clauses precede main clauses.
Case assignment for core participants behaves in a broadly split-intransitive manner, though actual assignment is very complex, involving semantic role, focus, relative animacy of the participants (first or second person versus third), and nature of the noun itself. The assigned cases are primary (used for focused or high animacy nominative arguments), neutral (for low animacy<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=2951882 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
