Let's learn different languages/dialects together. Special Thanks to aleksandr :D Šubratada! Mon’ lemoze Andy. Koda tefne? Hello! My name is Andy. How are you? Let's talk about the Moskha language. Moksha is a Mordvinic language of the Uralic family, spoken by around 130,000 people in 2010, primarily in western Mordovia. Its closest relative is the Erzya language, but they are not mutually intelligible. Moksha may also be related to the extinct Meshcherian and Muromian languages. Efforts to revive Moksha and Erzya began in the late 1990s with new language and education policies. Moksha has been written in Cyrillic using Russian spelling rules since the 18th century. The Moksha are indigenous to the Central Volga area, with their original territory once extending beyond today's Republic of Mordovia. Their lands contracted under pressure from Eastern Slavs and Bulgars in prehistoric times. Russian expansion began affecting them after the 11th century, with significant infiltration by Russian settlers. In 1230, Mongols invaded, annexing Moksha lands to the Golden Horde. As the Horde weakened, Russian influence grew, and by the mid-16th century, Moksha territories were under Moscow's control. Russian colonization and serfdom followed, along with forced baptisms in the 18th century. Despite being a minority in their traditional lands by the 19th century, Moksha saw a cultural revival, with Makar Yevseyev emerging as a key intellectual. They gained an autonomous region in 1928, which became an ASSR by 1934. Collectivization and repression in the 1930s hit hard, and from the late 1950s, Moksha's presence in public life diminished, relegated to a home language with limited educational use.
