Glottolog 5.2 - Qushan Aghul

AES status:: shifting
Source:: Campbell, Lyle and Lee, Nala Huiying and Okura, Eve and Simpson, Sean and Ueki, Kaori 2022
Comment:: Aghul (921-NOCODE_Qushan) = Threatened (40 percent certain, based on the evidence available) (Despite the relatively large number of speakers of all ages, there are reasons such as the presence of more dominant neighbouring languages, notably Dargwa, Lak, Tabasaran and Lezgian, as well as the increasing influence of Russian, for regarding the language as definitely endangered.) ['bib6474']

Qushan (or Kosha), traditionally counted as an Aghul [agx] dialect, is not intelligible to other Aghul dialects ( Dmitry Ganenkov and Timur Maisak 2008: 1 , Sulejmanov, N. D. 2000: 64 ) and thus merits its own entry. See also: Aghul [agx].
