- North Azeri (also known as North Azerbaijani) is a variety of the Azeri language spoken in Azerbaijan and neighboring regions of the Caucasus. Expatriate communities exist in Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. There are reported to be some North Azeri speakers remaining in Armenia. Dialects include Quba, Derbend, Baku, Shamakhi, Salyan, Lenkaran, Qazakh, Airym, Borcala, Terekeme, Qyzylbash, Nukha, Zaqatala, Qabala, Yerevan, Nakhchivan, Ordubad, Ganja, Shusha, Karapapak. Dialect differences are slight. There are significant differences between North Azeri and South Azeri in phonology, lexicon, morphology, syntax, and loanwords. North Azeri is the national language of Azerbaijan and the Baku variety is the basis of Standard Azerbaijani. It is officially written with a Roman script, but the older Cyrillic script is still widely used. There is a fair degree of mutual intelligibility, so they are listed as part of a single macrolanguage in ISO 639-3, but still separated.
