 The Kurmanji-Sorani affair   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Kurmanji is spoken by the majority of the Kurds in Turkey (a minority speaks the Dimili dialect), all Kurds in today’s Syria, the regions bordering Turkey and Syria in “Iraqi Kurdistan,” the regions bordering Turkey in “Iranian Kurdistan” and the Kurds in Armenia and some other former Soviet Republics.
Sorani, on the other hand, is spoken by the majority of Kurds in “Iraqi” and “Iranian” parts of Kurdistan.

MacKenzie (1961b: 86) argued that the grammatical features distinguishing Sorani from Kurmanci are due to a Gorani substratum, i.e., to traces of the language spoken in the area before a presumed 'Kurdish invasion'.
In itself, speaking Kurmanci, Sorani, Gorani, or Zaza (or none of these, as is the case with many Kurds in Turkey) is not a knockdown argument in establishing one's main ethnic identity; it is the significance that the language spoken carries for the speakers which counts (cf Fishman 1977).
However, on a number of points Sorani differs from Kurmanci as MacKenzie (1961b: 81ff) was the first to note, these distinctive traits of the Central and Southern dialects seem to be due to Gorani influence.

 The Fate of Karkuk
Sensing a threat to their ill-gotten Assyrian lands and the extensive oil resources contained therein, the Sorani and Behdanani leadership have now become self-described victims of "ethnic cleansing and Arabization" by the central government of Iraq.
Well known to Sorani and Behdanani political elites is the fact that in the 1970's over 200 Assyrian villages were destroyed by the central government and then subsequently resettled by Sorani and Behdanani tribesmen often related to the tribal hierarchy of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK).
Sorani, Behdanani and Arab claims on historic Assyrian cities and villages have continued.

 The Kurdish People: an Analysis by language, geography, religion and ethnicity
Most speakers of speech forms considered to be dialects of Kurdi live in Iran, though the term Sorani and the Kurdi language seem more associated in popular thought with Iraq.
The term "Kurmanji" is applied now only to the northern forms of speech, as this is what those speakers call that language, while the Sorani Kurds call their language Kurdi ("Kurdish"), as do also some of the smaller Kurdish language groups.
Sorani is more commonly used as the name of the group of Kurds speaking Kurdi.
