Aqusha dialect
Aqusha is a dialect of North Dargwa spoken by over 42,000 Dargins. It is the basis for the literary Dargwa language, along with Urakhi, as was developed in the 1930s. Speakers of Aqusha number the most among Dargwa linguistic groups.
Aqusha is most commonly found in the Akushinsky and Levashinsky Districts. There is a significant diaspora of Aqusha speakers in southern European Russia.
Aqusha is divided into 2 dialects, Aqusha and Levashi. According to Saygid Abdullayev, the differences in the Aqusha dialect are hardly noticeable and insignificant.
Aqusha, and dialects of its type, lack the fortis and lenis contrast that is found in dialects of the Tsudaqar type. Vowel length and labialization are also absent. Glottalized ⟨и⟩ and ⟨о⟩ occur, and the case indicator ⟨д⟩ is lost after prefixes.
