Yugh (Yug) is a Yeniseian language, closely related to Ket, formerly spoken by the Yugh people, one of the southern groups along the Yenisei River in central Siberia.[2] It was once regarded as a dialect of the Ket language, which was considered to be a language isolate, and was therefore called Sym Ket or Southern Ket; however, the Ket considered it to be a distinct language. In the literature, Yugh is referred to as the Sym dialect of Ket, due to the fact that the Yugh speakers lived on the banks of the river Sym, the left tributary of the river Yenisei.[3] By the 1980's, the last fluent-remaining speakers had died in Vorogovo and Jarcevo.[4] In the early 1990s, there were only two or three non-fluent speakes remaining, and the language was virtually extinct. The 2002 Census recorded 19 ethnic Yugh in all of Russia and in the 2010 census only one ethnic Yugh was counted.[5]
