The native population of Durisan, from a linguistic perspective, speaks a unique dialect known as Pavehi Sorani, a variant of Sorani Kurdish that deeply intertwines lexically and syntactically with the Hawrami language. This linguistic blend not only reflects the historical interaction between the Jaf and Hawrami peoples in the Lahoon region but also represents a living reality of the fluid and multilayered identity of the people of this area. Here, being Jaf does not solely define the entirety of one’s ethnic, linguistic, and cultural identity, but is enriched through layers of Hawrami influence.
