Northern Khanty

Northern Khanty

Khanty (or Ostyak) is a Uralic language spoken in western and north-western Siberia. There are three large dialectal groups but their speaker population size and the linguistic differences between them are quite significant: Northern Khanty (about 9,000 speakers), Eastern Khanty (about 3,000 speakers) and Southern Khanty (almost extinct).
