The Kadar dialect (G'adaran lug'at / Гъадаран лугъат) is a dialect of the North Dargwa language [ru], one of the Dargin languages, which is characterized by specific phonetic, morphological, lexical and syntactic features. It is traditionally regarded as a single dialect of Dargwa. The vocabulary layer of the Kadar dialect includes words borrowed from Arabic, Persian, Russian and especially Turkic, due to contact with Kumyk.
