The Yugh (Yug) language is a Yeniseian language of the Ket languages[2]. It was formerly spoken by the Yugh people, one of the southern groups along the Yenisei River in central Siberia.[3] It was once regarded as a dialect of the Ket language, which was considered to be a language isolate, and was therefore called Sym Ket or Southern Ket; however, the Ket considered it to be a distinct language[2]. In the literature, Yugh is referred to as the Sym dialect of Ket, due to the fact that the Yugh speakers lived on the banks of the river Sym, the left tributary of the river Yenisei.[4] By the 1980's, the last fluent-remaining speakers had died in Vorogovo and Jarcevo.[5] In the early 1990s, there were only two or three non-fluent speakers remaining, and the language was virtually extinct[2]. The 2002 Census recorded 19 ethnic Yugh in all of Russia and in the 2010 census only one ethnic Yugh was counted.[6] It is currently believed to be extinct.
Recent History (Новейшая история)
[edit]Yughs have previously been considered part of the Northern group of Ket people. However, in the 1960's, Yuga was different from Kat, they have separate and unique, although related, Yugsk language and customs. By the end of 1980's, the Yugh people, along with their language, had disappeared as a separate ethnic group. By the early 1990s, the Yugh language was thought to be extinct, as only two or three non-fluent languages in Yugsk were still spoken. Yugh people, along with their relatives and other extinct related tongues, were named "Yeniseians" by linguists and ethnographers. In 1991, the population consisted of 10 to 15 people that resided in the Turukhansk district of the Krasnoyarsk territory in the village, Vorogovo. The 2002 census recorded 19 ethnic Yugh in Russia. During the 2010 census, only one ethnic Yugh was recorded.
