Baraba, Paraba or Baraba Tatar is a dialect of Siberian Tatar[3] spoken by Baraba Tatars in Siberia. While middle aged individuals and the young generation speak Russian and Volga-Ural Tatar, the Baraba dialect is used by the older generation.[4]

History[edit]

The Arabic script has been historically used to write the language. The Latin script was adopted in 1928 but was replaced with the Cyrillic script in 1938.[citation needed] While standard Volga Tatar is widely taught in local schools, Baraba Tatar is not.[5]

Geographic distribution[edit]

Baraba Tatar is spoken mainly in the Novosibirsk Oblast, in Omsk Oblast, in Russia. Standard Volga–Ural Tatar is taught at local Tatar schools.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
