dc.abstract.enDictionaries of various Ainu lects contain from seven to ten different pa-headings. It is a daunting task to establish whether we are dealing with either one or two (or more) words that merged at some point in recent history. The isolate status of Ainu may only make things worse. This contribution confirms that internal reconstruction (as well as the evaluation of scenarios involving colexification and grammaticalization) and the correct evaluation of external data (so that we can avoid the confusion of internal data and potential loanwords) remain the reliable tools to reach satisfactory conclusions in the domain of etymology.
