		Via the Yarsan religious teachings, the Gorani dialect was spread intensively, especially among the poor segments of the population.

		The interesting thing about ergativity in Kurdish is that the two major dialects of Kurdish Kurmanji (North) and Sorani (south) exhibit different aspects of ergativity (Bulut 1995).
		But according to (Dorleijn92,97) Ergativity in Kurmanji dialects is in danger and is eroding.
		Markers with analogous role exist in Turkish, Urdu and the existance of such a marker in Persian might be as a result of contact with Turkish.

		The Kurmanci dialects have a case inflection for nouns and pronouns; the verb has a present and a past tense root; there is no passive conjugation, but an analytic passive is formed with the auxiliary verb hatin, 'to come'.
		Several distinct dialects of Gorani proper are spoken in Hawraman in Iranian Kurdistan and further south, and right across the border in Iraq; these varieties are most commonly called 'Hawrami' or 'Hawramani' by locals.(1) However, in Iraqi Kurdistan, there are various pockets of distinct ethnic groups speaking dialects closely akin to Gorani (see dialect map).
		A few samples of Macho (as the Kakai dialect is often called, after the expression for 'I say') from Topzawa near Tawuq may suffice to show its belonging to the Gorani dialects: min birinc morî, 'I eat the rice', min birincim ward, 'I ate the rice'; çem, 'eye', çemim, 'my eye'.

		So long as the Kurds declare Zazaish as a so-called Kurdish dialect, their act is well valid as a stealing.
		The reason is that neutral sources such as Encyclopaedia Britannica classify Zazaki as a dialect of Kurdish [18]: Subdialects of Kurdish include Kermanshahi, Leki, Gurani, and Zaza.
		I don't care whether Zazaki is a dialect of Zimane Kurdi or not, this is a political discussion rather than a linguistic one.
