Description: Zok is a form of Armenian that is so divergent that it has been classified as a separate language. It was originally spoken in Nakhijevan (present-day Azerbaijan). The last Armenians of Nakhijevan were displaced by conflict in 1988. There are thought to be less than 1,000 remaining speakers of this dialect, mainly from the villages of Tanakert, Tsghna, Ramis, and Paraka. The name Zok is not normally used for the inhabitants of Ramis and Paraka, but Acharyan (1935) makes it clear that the language spoken in these villages was a form of Agulis dialect. One of the main aims of this project is to collect material from these villages, as there is little or none available in the public domain. This project involves working with speakers resident in various locations in Armenia to produce an audiovisual corpus of texts, a grammar, including information from each surviving subdialect, and vocabulary lists. An online presence will be created in collaboration with the community, and material has been contributed to existing resources on the history and culture of the Armenians of Nakhijevan.
