Samoyedic languages
The Samoyedic languages are a branch of the Uralic language family, primarily spoken in northern Siberia. They include several languages, such as Nenets, Enets, and Nganasan, which are used by indigenous peoples in the region. These languages are characterized by their unique phonetic and grammatical features, including vowel harmony and agglutination.
Samoyedic languages are considered endangered, with many speakers shifting to Russian due to social and economic pressures. Efforts are being made to preserve these languages through documentation and education, as they hold significant cultural and historical value for the Samoyedic peoples.
