The Kadar dialect (G'adaran lug'at / Гъадаран лугъат) with 18,000 speakers, is a dialect of the Northern Dargin languages, one of the Dargin languages, which is characterized by specific phonetic, morphological, lexical and syntactic features. It is traditionally regarded as a single dialect of Dargwa. [2] [3] The vocabulary layer of the Kadar dialect includes words borrowed from Arabic, Persian, Russian and especially Turkic, due to contact with Kumyk. [4]
Kadar has 39 consonants and 5 vowels. [5] Gemination does not occur, as in other Dargin languages, but there are labialized consonants, being [ gʷ] and [ kʷ].
