Baraba Tatar orParaba Tatar is a dialect ofSiberian Tatar[4] spoken byBaraba Tatars inSiberia. While middle aged individuals and the young generation speakRussian andVolga-Ural Tatar, the Baraba dialect is used only by the older generation.[5] As such, it is classified as Severely Endangered by theAtlas of the World's Languages in Danger.
The Arabic script has been historically used to write Siberian Tatar. 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.[6]
Baraba Tatar is spoken mainly in theNovosibirsk Oblast and inOmsk Oblast, inRussia, on theBaraba Steppe. Standard Volga–UralTatar is taught at local Tatar schools.
