Yagán (originally Yahgan, but also now spelled Yaghan, Jagan, Iakan), also known as Yámana and Háusi Kúta, is one of the indigenous languages of Tierra del Fuego, spoken by the Yagán people. It is regarded as a language isolate, although some linguists have attempted to relate it to Kawésqar and Chon. Following the death of the second-to-last full-blooded Yaghan, Emelinda Acuña, in 2005, one elderly speaker remains, Cristina Calderón of Ukika Village on Isla Navarino, Chile.

  • Yagán (originally Yahgan, but also now spelled Yaghan, Jagan, Iakan), also known as Yámana and Háusi Kúta, is one of the indigenous languages of Tierra del Fuego, spoken by the Yagán people. It is regarded as a language isolate, although some linguists have attempted to relate it to Kawésqar and Chon. Following the death of the second-to-last full-blooded Yaghan, Emelinda Acuña, in 2005, one elderly speaker remains, Cristina Calderón of Ukika Village on Isla Navarino, Chile. There is reportedly some interest in reviving the language among Yagán descendants. Along with other Fuegian languages, it was among the first South American languages to be recorded by European explorers and missionaries. Yahgan was also spoken briefly on Keppel Island in the Falkland Islands at a missionary settlement.
  • El idioma yagán o yámana, mencionado también en la literatura como háusi kúta, inchikut, tekeenika, yahgan o yappu, es el idioma de los yaganes, un pueblo amerindio nómada de las islas y canales del extremo sur de Chile y Argentina. Se considera una lengua aislada cercana a la extinción. pues en el presente sólo se conoce una hablante de edad avanzada que vive en el poblado chileno de Ukika, en las cercanías de Puerto Williams. Es una lengua aglutinante. Su fonología es relativamente sencilla y su léxico contiene varios préstamos del inglés.
  • Le yagan (ou yahgan, yaghan, yamana) est une langue amérindienne parlée par le peuple Yagan au Chili, en Terre de Feu et autrefois en Argentine jusqu'au Sud de la Patagonie. Le yagan est une langue isolée. La langue est quasiment éteinte.
  • Yagan (também grafias Yahgan, Yaghan, Jagan, Iakan) ou Yámana e Háusi Kúta, é a língua do povo indígena do mesmo nome da Terra do Fogo. È uma língua isolada, embora alguns lingüistas tentem relacioná-la à Língua Kawésqar e às Línguas “Chon”.
