Korean (한국어) is a language principally spoken in North and South Korea. Some linguists consider that the Korean language is a member of the Altaic family, because some of its grammar and syntax resemble those found in Altaic languages. Additionally, Korean may be related to Japanese, following some assumptions through cultural similarities to the Korean Kingdom in Baekje. However, little evidence is available to decide conclusively any relationship with any language group, and is therefore also considered a language isolate.
Ariddian Arctic Korean (북극 한국어), a language derived from Korean, is spoken by a small number of people in the Ariddian Arctic Islands. The language evolved seperately after Koreans settled in the islands in the twelfth century. It is considered an endangered language. Islanders today also speak modern Korean, after an extensive campaign of self-teaching.
Korean, as used in Daehanjeiguk, is largely complemented by Chinese scripts (Hanja {한자}). Today, most people speak in a manner similar to the modern Seoul dialect, although the language is called Haneo (한어 {韓語}). Colloquially, it is also called Goryeoeo (고려어 {高麗語})or Joseoneo (조선어 {朝鮮語}). Haneo is the official language of Daehanjeiguk, although English is commonly used in diplomacy.
