Lezgic language family
The Lezgic language family is a group of languages primarily spoken in the northeastern region of the Caucasus, particularly in Dagestan, Russia. This family includes several languages, with the most prominent being Lezgian, Avar, and Tuvan. These languages are known for their complex phonetic systems and rich morphology.
Lezgic languages belong to the larger Nakh-Daghestanian language family, which also includes the Nakh languages like Chechen and Ingush. The Lezgic languages are characterized by their use of agglutination, where words are formed by stringing together various morphemes. This linguistic feature contributes to the diversity and uniqueness of the languages within this family.
