Sakhalin Ainu was an Ainu language, or perhaps several Ainu languages, spoken on the island of Sakhalin, now part of Russia. The Raychishka dialect, on the western coast of Sakhalin near modern Uglegorsk, is the best documented variety, with a grammatical description. The Ainu of Sakhalin appear to have been a relatively recent expansion from Hokkaido, displacing the indigenous Okhotsk culture.
