About Xakulese
Xakulese (xaKulduru Xakulzuru) is a dialect of Uyendur spoken in and around the southern city of Xakul, among the salt marshes for which the area is known. It preserves a few archaicisms of pronunciation lost even to the relatively conservative Uyendur, while displaying some innovations of its own. The culture and economy were rather independent during the Naduta imperial period, and the vocabulary has, fewer Naduta loans.
