Kurdish languages
Kurdish
(, ) is a
continuum
of
Northwestern Iranian languages
spoken by the
Kurds
in
Western Asia
. Kurdish forms three dialect groups known as
Northern Kurdish
(
Kurmanji
),
Central Kurdish
(
Sorani
), and
Southern Kurdish
(
Pehlewani
). A separate group of languages,
Zaza-Gorani
, is also spoken by several million Kurds, but is linguistically not Kurdish. Recent (as of 2009) studies estimate between 20 and 30 million native speakers of Kurdish in total.
