Short description: Sino-Tibetan language
The Taz language (Russian: Тазкий язы́к or Tazkiy yazik) is a Sino-Tibetan language (according to some designations - a dialect)[1] spoken by the Taz people, an ethnic group of mixed Sino-Manchu-Nanai-Udege origin living mainly in the Russian Far East[2].
The language is based primarily on the Northeastern dialect of Mandarin Chinese with some influences from local Tungusic languages such as Nanai and Udege.[2]
The 2010 Russian Census counted 274 Taz people living in Russia;[3] however, the overwhelming majority of fluent speakers of Taz are elderly and Russian tends to be the primary language of the group in contemporary times.[4]
