Ingrian

The Ingrian language is a Finnic language spoken by the Ingrian people. It is closely related to Finnish and is written using the Latin alphabet. The Ingrian people have their own unique culture and history. They are descendants of the Finnish people who migrated to the area now known as Ingria, in the 13th century. The Ingrian language is thought to have evolved from the Finnish spoken by these migrants. Today, there are thought to be around 300 speakers of Ingrian. Most of them live in Russia, although there are also a few speakers in Estonia. Ingrian is a endangered language. However, there are efforts being made to revive it. In 2010, a new Ingrian-Finnish dictionary was published. And in 2012, the first Ingrian language textbook was published. If you're interested in learning more about the Ingrian language and culture, there are a few resources available. The Ingrian language Wikipedia page is a good place to start. You can also find Ingrian language lessons on YouTube.
