Eastern Khanty

Eastern Khanty (ӄӑнтәк кӧԓ, қӑнтәк кӧԯ, pronounced [qɑntəɣ kɵɬ] ) is a Uralic language, frequently considered a dialect of a Khanty language, spoken by about 1,000 people. The majority of these speakers speak the Surgut dialect, as the Vakh-Vasyugan and Salym varieties have been rapidly declining in favor of Russian. The former two have been used as literary languages since the late 20th century, with Surgut being more widely used due to its less isolated location and higher number of speakers.
