Chuvash language
Chuvash (; )〔also known as ''Chăvash'', ''Chuwash'', ''Chovash'', ''Chavash'', ''Çuvaş'' or ''Çuaş''〕 is a Turkic language spoken in central Russia, primarily in the Chuvash Republic and adjacent areas. It is the only surviving member of the Oghur branch of Turkic languages. While many Turkic languages demonstrate mutual intelligibility to varying degrees, Chuvash has diverged considerably from the other languages in the group.
The writing system for the Chuvash language is based on the Cyrillic script, employing all of the letters used in the Russian alphabet, and adding four letters of its own: Ӑ, Ӗ, Ҫ and Ӳ.
== Language use ==
Chuvash is the native language of the Chuvash people and an official language of Chuvashia.〔http://www.cv-haval.org/ru/node/54 Эктор Алос-и-Фонт. Оценка языковой политики в Чувашии〕〔http://cvlat.blogspot.com/2010/11/blog-post.html Оценка языковой политики в Чувашии〕 It is spoken by 1,640,000 persons in Russia and another 34,000 in other countries.〔(Ethnologue report for Chuvash )〕 86% of ethnic Chuvash and 8% of the people of other ethnicities living in Chuvashia claimed knowledge of Chuvash language during the 2002 census.〔Russian Census 2002. (6. Владение языками (кроме русского) населением отдельных национальностей по республикам, автономной области и автономным округам Российской Федерации )(''Knowledge of languages other than Russian by the population of republics, autonomous oblast and autonomous districts'')〕 Despite that, and although Chuvash is taught at schools and sometimes used in the media, it is considered endangered,〔(Zheltov, Pavel. An Attribute-Sample Database System for Describing Chuvash Affixes )〕 because Russian dominates in most spheres of life and few children learning the language are likely to become active users.
A fairly significant production and publication of literature in Chuvash continues to the present day. According to UNESCO's ''Index Translationum'', at least 202 books translated from Chuvash were published in other languages (mostly Russian) since ca. 1979.〔(Index Translationum: translations from Chuvash ) - shows 202 titles, as of 2013-01-06. The index has data since ca. 1979.〕 However, as with most of other languages of the former USSR, most of the translation activity took place before the dissolution of the USSR: out of these 202 translations, 170 books were published in the USSR,〔(Index Translationum: translations from Chuvash, published in the USSR ) - shows 170 titles〕 and just 17, in the post-1991 Russia (mostly, in the 1990s).〔(Index Translationum: translations from Chuvash, published in Russia ) - shows 17 titles〕 A similar situation takes place with the translation of books from other languages (mostly Russian) into Chuvash (the total of 175 titles published since ca. 1979, but just 18 out of them, in the post-1991 Russia).〔(Index Translationum: translations into Chuvash )〕
