Japanese relocation, California. Newcomers at Santa Anita Park Assembly Center in Arcadia, California, receive vaccination against smallpox and typhoid fever. Under direction of Dr. Norman Kobayshi and nurses who also are evacuees of Japanese ancestry, they pass through the hospital at a rate of 400 an hour. Evacuees are transferred later to War Relocation Authority centers for the duration

I keep hearing from #Mongols #Turks and now #Uyghurs living in #Japan that #Japanese is relatively easy for them to learn, as the grammar and structure is similar to their languages. That can't be a coincidence, seems like there is a likely common linguistic heritage, no?

Yet, linguists claim they are unrelated languages. Why the contradiction? Is it #Japanese nationalism? Or #western academic elitism?

@ncoca Really fascinating point. I think I remember from Isaac Meyer's "History of Japan" #podcast that there is a running debate about just how deep the connection between the #Japanese and mainland Asia is (which is a point of contention among both Western scholars and Japanese nationalists invested in the idea of Japanese exceptionalism). I think you can find it in the early episodes of his new "Revised Overview of Japanese History" starting at episode 500.
