It is indeed very easy to be misled by appearances.<br class=""><br class="">I remember a talk by Östen Dahl around 2003 when he presented a WALS-like map with two feature values and asked the audience to look for areal patterns – of which there was no shortage (low-level ones). Then came the surprise: The map that he presented was generated by a random process.<br class=""><br class="">Back in 1998/2001, I identified a number of "<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://zenodo.org/record/1236769" class="">Standard Average European</a>" areal features, but I didn't try to make sure that these were not random coincidences. Out of thousands of possible areal features, 12-15 that cluster in Europe is perhaps not all that much. It seems that we would need to start in a radically bottom-up manner, using a representative set of features, and examine them all for a large number of languages.

In other words, other than hypothesizing that there is a linguistic area called Mainland/Inner/Central/whatever Northeast Asia and then looking for features that would justify that area, I decided to agnostically collect linguistic features from the sample languages of a macroarea and then use that data to see if there are any subareas within that macroarea. And that macroarea will be East Asia (not including North Asia or Southeast Aisa). I have selected 34 convenience sample languages spoken in East Asia (see below).

Manchuria is certainly a problematic term due to its association with Manchukuo, but it is still employed in academic literature outside of China where the term dōngběi 东北 'Northeast' is used instead. But it seems to me that the area under investigation here is slightly different from what is usually referred to as Manchuria. The blue area excludes those parts of Manchuria that since 1858/60 became part of Russia (Primorye region, Sakhalin, etc.) but includes large parts of Northern China and Mongolia. As for Northeast Asia, there is also a very different definition by Chard, Janhunen, myself, and ohters that is much broader and also includes Northern Asia. Janhunen refers to this as "wider" Northeast Asia:</div><div class=""><div class=""> </div><div class="">"In the widest sense, Northeast Asia as a geographical and ethnohistorical region can be defined as the entire northeastern part of the Eurasian continent, delimited by the Yenisei in the west and the Yellow River in the south. In the northeast, the region extends, in principle, to the Bering Strait. In a somewhat narrower framework, Northeast Asia may be defined as comprising the territory between the Amur and Yellow River basins, including the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese Islands in the Pacific coastal zone, but excluding the northeasternmost limits of what is today the Russian Far East." (Janhunen 2010)</div><div class=""> </div><div class="">What Janhunen calls "narrow" Northeast Asia is close to the area you are interested in but includes Japan and other parts of "Pacific Northeast Asia" as Zgusta calls it.</div><div class=""> </div><div class="">I would also avoid using "inner" and "outer", which might have unwanted connotations of being included and excluded, etc. Concerning "boreal" and "austral" proposed by Dan Slobin, I agree that the terms would be more neutral. But if I understood you correctly, "Outer Northeast Asia" would be the surrounding area on all sides and not only to the South. In this case, "central" and "peripheral" might be more adequate. But some parts on your map are also part of peripheral Mainland Southeast Asia as was pointed out by Hilário de Sousa.</div><div class=""> </div><div class="">The main question would be, of course, why you need a term for this area in the first place.</div><div class=""> </div><div class="">Best,</div><div class=""> </div><div class="">Andi</div><div class=""> </div><div class=""> </div><div class=""> <div style="margin: 10px 5px 5px 10px; padding: 10px 0px 10px 10px; border-left-width: 2px; border-left-style: solid; border-left-color: rgb(195, 217, 229);" class=""><div style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;" class=""><b class="">Gesendet:</b> Sonntag, 03.
