Home > Avar language

There are two main dialect groups: the northern, which includes Khunzakh; and the southern, which includes Andalal, Gidatl', Antsukh, and others. Avar has fifteen spoken dialects: Avar, Bagulal, Chamalal, Budukh, Botlikh, Andi, Godoberi, Tindi, Karati, Akhvakh, Dido, Khvarshi, Ginukh, Hunzib, and Bezhiti, each named after its speaking tribe.

The literary language is based on the болмацӀ [bolmats] - the common language used between speakers of different dialects and languages. The bolmats in turn was mainly derived from the dialect of Khunzakh, the capital and cultural centre of the Avar region, with some influence from the southern dialects. Nowadays the literary language is influencing the dialects, levelling out their differences.

As part of Soviet language planning policies the Ajam was replaced by a Latin alphabet in 1928, which was in turn replaced by the current Cyrillic alphabet in 1938Events January -June January 3 The March of Dimes is established by Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
