A short history of the Kurdish language
Kurdish belongs to the Western Iranian group of the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European family of languages. It is related to Persian and Pashto and is spoken by the Kurds, an ethnic group living in parts of Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran and Armenia – a loosely defined region generally referred to as Kurdistan.
Written Kurdish began to appear in the 7th century, when the Kurds converted to Islam. The first well-known Kurdish poet was Ell Herirl (1425 – 1495), and Kurdish literature began to become popular in the 16th century.
There is no unified version of Kurdish, but three standardised versions – Northern, Central and Southern. Northern Kurdish, or Kurmanji, is spoken in Turkey, Syria and the northern parts of Kurdish-speaking areas of Iran and Iraq. Around three quarters of Kurds speak this version. Central Kurdish, or Sorani, is spoken in northeast Iraq and west Iran. Southern Kurdish, or Kermanshahi, is spoken in the Kermanshah province of Iraq. Read more
