Adyghe, also known as West Circassian, (or Lower Circassian) is a Northwest Caucasian language spoken by the western subgroups of Circassians. Native to Circassia in the Caucasus, it is one of the two official languages of Adygea, the other being Russian. It is spoken in Russia, but mainly in Turkey, Jordan, Syria, Iraq and Israel, where Circassians settled after the Circassian genocide by the Russian Empire. Adyghe literary language (Adyghe: Литературабз) is mainly based on the Chemguy dialect, which was chosen for its grammatical and phonological simplicity, though there was significant input from Shapsug and Bzhedug dialects.
