`  See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Languages#Reorganization?.     == Random remarks == *:File:Boundaries of the Okinawan Languages.svg seems inaccurate. According to Karimata (2000), the western half of Onna Village is part of the Southern Okinawan-speaking region. *I think the ``phonemic`` accent notation of the Nakijin Dialect Dictionary is actually phonetic but I leave it intact. A more elegant analysis is presented by Moriyo Shimabukuro's The Accentual History of the Japanese and Ryukyuan Languages (2007) although he did not discuss compounding. *The example of kumo (spider/cloud), originally added by , is not a good example. Kumo is a homonym in Tokyo Japanese only because an irregular sound change occurred in Tokyo Japanese. ``Cloud`` belongs to the accent class 2.3 and ``spider`` to 2.5. This pair is realized differently as HL and LF in Kyoto. The expected Tokyo forms are LH and HL, but they are both pronounced HL.   `
