Encyclopedia > Goguryeo language

The Goguryeo language was spoken in the ancient kingdom of Goguryeo (37 BCAD 668), one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. Chinese name Russian name Goguryeo or Koguryo was an ancient kingdom located in southern Manchuria, southern Russian Maritime province, and the northern and central parts of the Korean peninsula. ... The Three Kingdoms Period of Korea (hangul: 삼국시대) featured the three rival kingdoms of Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla, which dominated the Korean peninsula and parts of Manchuria for much of the 1st millennium CE. Historians claim that the Three Kingdoms period ran from the 1st century BCE (specifically 57 BC) until...


It is unknown except for a small number of words, which mostly suggest that it was similar but not identical to the language of Silla and Baekje, the other two of the Three Kingdoms, and influenced by the Tungusic languages. Supporters of the Altaic language family often classify the Goguryeo language as a member of that language family. Most Korean linguists believe that Goguryeo language was closest to the Altaic languages out of the Three Kingdoms. Silla (also spelled Shilla, traditional dates 57 BCE - 935 CE) was one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. ... Baekje (October 18 BC – August AD 660) was a kingdom in the southwest of the Korean Peninsula. ... Tungusic languages (or Manchu-Tungus languages) are spoken in Eastern Siberia and Manchuria. ... Altaic is a proposed language family that includes 66 languages [1] spoken by about 348 million people, mostly in and around Central Asia and northeast Asia. ...


Striking similarities between Baekje and Goguryeo can also be found, which is consistent with the legends that describe Baekje being founded by the sons of Goguryeo's founder. The Goguryeo names for government posts are mostly similar to those of Baekje and Silla. Baekje (October 18 BC – August AD 660) was a kingdom in the southwest of the Korean Peninsula. ...


Similarities in certain vocabulary with Old Japanese have been noted as well. [1] Some linguists propose the so-called "Buyeo languages" family that includes the languages of Buyeo, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Old Japanese. Chinese records suggest that the languages of Goguryeo, Buyeo, East Okjeo, and Gojoseon were similar, while the Goguryeo language differed significantly from that of Malgal (Mohe)[citation needed]. Note: This page contains IPA phonetic symbols in Unicode. ... The Buyeo (Puyŏ) languages are a hypothetical language family that would relate the languages of Buyeo, Goguryeo, Baekje and the Japonic languages, and possibly place them together as a family under the hypothetical Altaic family. ...

Okjeo was a small tribal state which arose in the northern Korean peninsula from perhaps 2nd century BC to 5th century AD. Dong-okjeo (East Okjeo) occupied roughly the area of the Hamgyŏng provinces of North Korea, and Buk-okjeo (North Okjeo) occupied the Duman River region. ... Gojoseon was an ancient Korean kingdom. ... The Mohe (靺鞨, Korean: Malgal, 말갈), were a Tungusic tribe in ancient Manchuria. ...


Some words of Goguryeo origin can be found in the old Korean language (early 10th to late 14th century) but most were soon replaced with ones of Silla origin.

Goguryeo (516 words)
Goguryeo or Koguryŏ (高句麗; 고구려; pinyin: Gāogōulí) (1st century BC-668) was a kingdom in southern Manchuria and northern Korea.
The southernmost part of Goguryeo was seized by Silla, the northwestern part was by Tang, and the rest was succeeded by Bohai.
The Goguryeo language is unknown except for small number of words, which suggests that it was different from Korean or Tungusic languages.
Korean language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3439 words)
