High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Moksha language (Moksha: мокшень кяль) is a member of the Mordvinic branch of the Uralic languages with about 600,000 native speakers. Moksha is the majority language in the western part of Mordovia. Its closest relative is the Erzya language, with which it is not intelligible. Moksha is also considered to be closely related to the extinct Meshcherian and Muromian languages. There are presently six dialects of Moksha: Central, Western (or Zubu dialect), South-Western, Northern, South-Eastern and Southern.
