IRANIAN LANGUAGES

KHUFI

The Khufi language is one of the Eastern-Iranian languages of the Indo-European language group, belonging to the northern group of the Pamir languages.

The Roshani language is the closest related language to Khufi and some authors consider Khufi to be a dialect of Roshani. The divergences in their vocabularies are rare and inessential; the basic differences lie in the phonetics. Of importance is, however, that the Khufis consider themselves a separate people.
