East Eurasian Text Examples

This page includes a number of non-Indo-European language families and language isolates (languages which are unrelated to any other language) from the eastern portion of the Eurasian continent (including the islands off its eastern coast).  They are grouped by families and labelled accordingly.  Headings that match the language name indicate language isolates.

While I am very familiar with the Cyrillic, Greek, and Hebrew scripts, I have much less familiarity with the other writing systems found on this page.  If you notice errors in my transcriptions, please send me an email and I'll fix them.
