One of them is the Nivkh language. It has a very difficult pronunciation and numerals reading. For example, this language has 26 ways of counting, that depends on what we count – skis, boats or bunches of fish. That is why the Nivkhs speak Russian, and this fact has led to the Nivkh language being on the list of endangered languages. According to the census in 2010 only 198 people speak the Nivkh language nowadays. popup.nrat_date 2025-05-12 Close
