Hobyót language
Hobyot (also known as Hewbyót or Hobi) is an endangered Semitic language spoken in a small area of Yemen and neighboring Oman.
Hobyot is a modern South Arabian language, a group of languages that are more closely related to Ethiopic languages than they are to Arabic. It is the least studied language of that group. There are no dialects of Hobyót, which is similar to the closely related languages Mehri and Jibbali.〔 Lonnet, Antoine. 1985. "The Modern South Arabian Languages in the P.D.R. of Yemen." ''Proceedings of the Seminar for Arabian Studies'' Vol.15〕
Linguists first mentioned Hobyot in 1981. A clear linguistic description of Hobyot is difficult, as many speakers mix Mehri into their speech around outsiders. There are about 100 Hobyot speakers in Oman, and speakers guess the population in Yemen is about 400.〔 Simeone-Senelle, Marie-Claude. 2013. ("Mehri and Hobyót spoken in Oman and in Yemen." ) Sciences de l'Homme et de la Societe HAL.〕
