  Northern Dargwa, with Urakhi at the lower right of the section

Urakhi (also Khyurkili)[1] is a dialect of Northern Dargwa [ru] spoken by around 35,000 people[2] in Sergokalinsky District, the northern portions of Akushinsky District and in the villages of Gerga and Krasnopartizansk [ru] in Kayakentsky District. Along with the Aqusha dialect [ru], it formed the basis for the literary Dargwa language.

Phonology

Urakhi does not have vowel length or consonant gemination, in contrast with other varieties. The affricates [d͡ʒ] and [d͡z] are also preserved, in contrast with Tsudaqar and related varieties. The system of phonemic fortis and lenis has been lost, in accordance with the related Aqusha dialect, replaced by the corresponding voiced consonants.[3]

Orthography

Urakhi was one of the bases for the literary Dargwa language, along with Aqusha. Peter von Uslar created an orthography for Urakhi in 1892 in his grammar.[1]
