Miyako Ryukyuan
Morphological Typology
Miyako is an agglutinative language[1]
Basic Information
There are a number of languages spoken on the Ryukyuan islands (located south of mainland Japan), each of which in turn has multiple dialects. [2] The dialects of Miyako include Ogami, Ikema, and Hirara, and there are at most 10,000-15,000 speakers of these various dialects combined.[1] Ryukyuan languages are written in katakana, and the ISO code for Miyako is mvi.[3]
Availability of Text
I should be able to find a sufficient corpus from various resources available online.[2][4]

Availability of Text
Ainu
Morphological Typology
Most sources obtained from a simple Google search indicate that Ainu is an agglutinative language, and describe it either as synthetic[5] or polysynthetic.[6]
Basic Information
Ainu is the language spoken by the people indigenous to Hokkaido, the northernmost island of present-day Japan. As a result of the Meiji government ban on the use of Ainu in 1869[7] the language has a very small number of speakers, with estimates ranging from 2-15.[8] However, in recent years there have been efforts made to revive the language. Ainu can be written in katakana or in romanji, and the ISO code is ain.[9]
Availability of Text
I am confident that I can find a page's worth of text in Ainu. There is a grammar in McCabe[10], and I have found additional samples online.[11][12]
