Salom! Man nom Andyx. Čúte īšte? Hello! My name is Andy. How are you? Let's talk about the Yaghnobi language. Yaghnobi language. Yaghnobi is a modern Eastern Iranian language spoken in Tajikistan and is widely described as the only surviving successor of a Sogdian dialect; in everyday life it is used mainly for family communication and was historically not a written language. It was originally spoken in the remote upper valley of the Yaghnob River (about 100 km north of Dushanbe), but after the Soviet-era forced resettlement in 1970–71 its speaker communities became more geographically dispersed (including Zafarobod and other areas), and some people later moved back to the valley. Linguists commonly describe at least western vs. eastern dialect varieties. Modern speaker estimates vary by source; one scholarly report cites ~12,500 speakers in Tajikistan (attributed there to a Tajik Academy of Sciences contact). On endangerment/vitality, Glottolog currently classifies Yaghnobi as “Vulnerable” and summarizes evidence that in many families younger people shift toward Tajik even where older generations speak Yaghnobi. Yaghnobi people/culture. The Yaghnobis are an Iranian people historically associated with the high mountain Yaghnob Valley, and sources describing Yaghnobi society commonly note that speakers are Sunni Muslims. A major recent historical turning point was the Soviet government’s forced removal of roughly the whole valley population around 1970 (about 3,000 people in the Encyclopaedia Iranica account), with many resettled to places such as Zafarobod and areas around Dushanbe; later, policy changes and individual decisions enabled some return migration (notably from the late 1980s onward). Contemporary reports emphasize that language maintenance is under pressure: one recent minority-rights report says Yaghnobi had some school teaching in the early 2000s but is currently absent from the school programme, while younger generations often use Tajik much more than Yaghnobi.
