Andic Languages
The Andic languages are a group of languages spoken primarily in the mountainous regions of the Caucasus. They belong to the Nakh-Daghestanian language family, which is part of the larger Northwest Caucasian language group. The most notable Andic languages include Avar, Tsez, and Hunzib. These languages are characterized by their complex phonetic systems and rich morphological structures.
Andic languages are primarily used by the Andi people and other ethnic groups in the region. They are known for their unique grammatical features, including extensive use of cases and a variety of verb forms. Despite their rich linguistic heritage, many Andic languages face challenges due to declining numbers of speakers and the influence of dominant languages like Russian.
