Baraba, Paraba or Baraba Tatar is a dialect of Siberian Tatar[3] spoken by Baraba Tatars in Siberia. While middle aged individuals and the young generation speak Russian and Volga-Ural Tatar, the Baraba dialect is used by the older generation.[4]
The Arabic script has been historically used to write the language. The Latin script was adopted in 1928 but was replaced with the Cyrillic script in 1938.[citation needed] While standard Volga Tatar is widely taught in local schools, Baraba Tatar is not.[5]
Baraba Tatar is spoken mainly in the Novosibirsk Oblast, in Omsk Oblast, in Russia. Standard Volga–Ural Tatar is taught at local Tatar schools.
