Kukkuzi dialect or Kukkusi dialect (Rus: Куровицы) is a dialect of Votic spoken in Kukkuzi[2] the Kukkuzi dialect has been heavily influenced by Ingrian.[3]

There exists a recording session of the Kukkuzi dialect, which was made in 2008–2012.[4] A Kukkuzi dialect dictionary has been made in 1980.[5] The Kukkuzi dialect has been declared to be dead since the 1970s,[2] however three existing speakers have been located in 2006.[1]

Classification

According to E.B. Markus the Kukkuzi dialect has Izhorian like vocabulary and phonetics, while containing Votic grammar which is a result of an incomplete language switch to Izhorian.[6] However some linguists have claimed it rather as a dialect of Ingrian[7] and some classify it as a mixed language[8] In the past Kukkuzi has also sometimes been classified as a Finnish dialect.[9]

According to Tiit-Rein Viitso, the Kukkuzi dialect was originally a Northern Finnic dialect (related to Finnish, Ingrian, Karelian and Veps) that was influenced by Votic and later the Lower Luga dialect of Ingrian.[10][11]

Features

  • The sound õ exists in Votic but is absent in the Kukkuzi dialect.[12]
