EspañolBARABA LANGUAGE
(Redirected from Siberian Tatar language)
'Baraba' or 'Baraba Tatar' is a Turkic language spoken by about 8,000 people in Russian Siberia. It is closely related to Tatar and some linguists consider Baraba to be a dialect of Tatar.
Baraba Tatar falls into a continuum of Tatar dialects spoken through Siberia. The term Baraba Tatar may be used to refer to all Siberian Tatar dialects.
Baraba Tatar is a Turkic language belonging to the Kypchak branch. Within the Kypchak branch, Baraba is subgrouped with the closely related Tatar language and the less-closely related Bashkir language in the Kypchak-Bolgar family. Some linguists consider Baraba and other Turkic languages to be members of the Altaic macro-family.
Baraba Tatar is spoken in the Tyumen and Tomsk Oblasts in Russia. It is not an official language. Standard Kazan Tatar is used as the literary language.
Baraba Tatar possesses a number of features that distinguish it from Kazan Tatar:
★ Change of /t/ to /ts/: ''tæt'' → ''tsæts'' "hair"
★ Devoicing of initial stops: ''ba'' → ''pa'' "head"
★ Devoicing of final /z/ to /s/: ''sez'' → ''sis'' "you (plural)"
★ Lack of sound changes /e/ ↔ /i/ and /o/ ↔ /u/: ''jort'' → ''jurt'' "home", ''kil-'' → ''kel-'' "come"
★ Sounds in paretheses appear only in loan words.
★ The sounds [] and [] appear in free variation. The replacement of [] with [] is a feature that distinguishes Baraba from Kazan Tatar.[1]
