Tat (zuhun tati)
Native to: Azerbaijan, Dagestan (Russia)
Region: North Caucasus, Transcaucasia
Native speakers: (28,000 excluding Judeo-Tat cited 1989 -no date)
Language family: Indo-European (Indo-Iranian)
is a Southwestern Iranian language closely related to, but not fully mutually intelligible with Persian and spoken by the Tats in Azerbaijan and Russia. There is also an Iranian language called Judeo-Tat spoken by Jews of Caucasus.
The Tats are an indigenous Iranian people in the Caucasus who trace their origin to the Sassanid-period migrants from Iran (ca. fifth century AD).
Tat is endangered, classified as "severely endangered" by UNESCO's Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger. Most scholars divide Tat into two general varieties: Jewish and Muslim, with religious differences correlating with linguistic differences.
Another, almost extinct, variety of Tat is spoken by Christians of Armenian origin, who are called Armeno-Tats.
According to the 1989 Soviet census, 30,000 Tats lived in the Soviet Union, of which 10,000 were in Azerbaijan. Not all likely speak Tati, and this does not include the more rural locations that were not reached by the census. It is vital to stress that the Tats are one of the most assimilated of Azerbaijan’s ethnic groups. This is particularly true for urban Tats. All of this makes it difficult to identify the true number of the Tat ethnic group.
The adults in most of the mountain and foothill communities reported they use Tat as their main language of interaction. They speak Tat with each other, but speak Azerbaijani with their children so that they will learn the language before beginning school. If the wife in the family is non-Tat speaking, however, the family is most likely to use Azerbaijani in the home. In the villages of Lahıc and Zǝyvǝ, women who marry in are reported to learn Tat.

[@DoraEmon-xf8br]

I took a few classes of Sanskrit at University when I was younger. I was amazed that some basic words are practically intact in Latin, French or my Occitan dialect. It’s not a lot of words but still it is interesting to find cognates that haven’t undergone much changes though millenia.

[@mahatmaniggandhi2898]

@@DoraEmon-xf8br my mother tongue is persian and when i was a kid i saw the french "est" for the first time and thought to myself how much it looks like persian "ast" and then i realized that the english "is" looks similar too then i noticed the similarity in numbers and some other core vocab and was amazed. a bit later read a book on indo-european family and found out that they were all part of this big family :)

The language that was widespread in the territory of modern Azerbaijan Republic and the northern part of Iran before the Turkic Azeri language began to spread.

[@hipno8016]

Wrong. Tat spoken in Azerbaijan republic is unrelated to the Tati language spoken in northern Iran. Tat is a southwestern iranic language related to Middle Persian where as Tati language is closely related to Talysh language scattered throughout Alborz region which is thought to be descended from Daylami and Median languages.

[@dreamlandish]

Tat or Tati are same language which is spoken in Iran ,Azerbaijan and Daghestan(Russia) , It's an Iranic Language but mixed up with Azeri.

[@MindSeeker2341]

Fun fact: There's Tat language in Iran as well but despite similarity in name they are totally different. Iranian Tat is a Northwestern Iranian language more related to Talysh.
