Rutul is classified as Definitely Endangered by the UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger (2010)

Rutul or Rutulian[3][4] is a language spoken by the Rutuls, an ethnic group living in Dagestan (Russia ) and some parts of Azerbaijan. It is spoken by 30,000 people in Dagestan (2010 census)[5] and 17,000 (no date) in Azerbaijan.[6] The word Rutul derives from the name of a Dagestani village where speakers of this language make up the majority.[7][full citation needed]

Rutul is endangered in Russia[8] and classified as "definitely endangered" by UNESCO's Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger.[9]

Classification

Rutul belongs to the Lezgic group of the Northeast Caucasian language family. The Rutuls call their language mɨχaˤbišdɨ č’ɛl.[10]

History

Rutul was not a written language until the writing system for it (based on Cyrillic) was developed in 1990. A Latin alphabet was developed in 2013 based on the Shin-Shorsu dialect.[11] Speakers are often bilingual or multilingual, having a good command of the Azeri, Lezgian and/or Russian languages. There are 8 dialects and 2 subdialects of Rutul. The literary version of the language remains in the process of development. In the Rutul-populated regions of southern Russia, Rutul is taught in primary schools (grades 1 to 4).[7][full citation needed]

Writing

Before the Russian Revolution, the Rutuls used the Arabic script. In the Arabic script (Ajami), as a written source, the text of the song in the Ikhrek dialect of the Rutul language of the ashug of the 18th century Kur Rajaba is known.[13] The modern Rutul alphabet based on the Cyrillic alphabet was introduced in 1990.[14] Arabic was used, among other things, when writing scientific papers. Turkish (Azerbaijani) language was also used in everyday life. The founders of the Rutul script and the compilers of the Rutul alphabet based on the Cyrillic alphabet are S.M. Makhmudova,[15][16] K.E. Jamalov,[17] G.K. Ibragimov.[18] In 1992 prof. Makhmudova S. M. and Jamalov K. E. published an ABC book in Rutul for grade 1 students - “Alifba: 1-classad kitab”.[15][19] In this edition, in addition to the previously adopted alphabet, the digraph Дз дз was introduced.[20] After that, three more school textbooks of the Rutul language were published: “Myhaӏd chael” (grades 2 and 4) and Recipes by S. M. Makhmudova and “Rutul chael” by E. Ismailova. In 2012-2013 a textbook on the Rutul language for universities was published: Grammar of the Rutul language, Part 1-2 by S. M. Makhmudova. In 2006, Dzhamalov K. E. and Semedov S. A. released a Rutul-Russian dictionary (Ihrek dialect)[17] In this edition, the letter Ь ь was excluded from the alphabet, but Аь аь was included.[20] In 2019, the Rutul-Russian dictionary by A. S. Alisultanov and T. A. Suleimanova was published.

The Rutuls have a rich literature dating back to the 11th century with the name of Zeinab Hinavi, an Albanian poetess. The classic of Rutul, Lezgin and Azerbaijani poetry is the eighteenth-century ashug Kur-Rajab. In the XX-XXI centuries, Rutul literature was developed and developed by Jameseb Salarov, Nurakhmed Ramazanov, Magomed Ulileev, Musa Makhmudov, Ezerchi, Yusif Medzhidov, Sakit Kurbanov, Shafi Ibragimov, Veysal Cherkezov and others. In 2008, the first generalizing work "Rutul literature" was published. , which provides information about Rutul writers, poets and ashugs.
