Talyshi language being a member of the family of Irani languages belongs to the Indo-European language group.
Historically, Talyshi language has been the native language of the people who live in the Talyshi region--south east of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the provinces of Gilan, Ardabil and others of Zenjan and Gazvin of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Talyshi language is referred to repressed languages in the Post-Soviet territory.

 Talysh   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Talyshi is spoken in the northern regions of the Iranian provinces of Gilan and Ardabil and the southern parts of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
Northern Talysh (the part in the Republic of Azerbaijan) was historically known as Talish-i Gushtasbi.
There are no statistical data on the numbers of Talysh-speakers, but estimates show their number to be half million in Iran and 1 million in the republic of Azerbaijan, bringing the total number of Talysh-speakers close to 1.5 million people.

 Ossetic language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is an agglutinating type language with phonetics, morphology, lexicon, semantics and syntax belonging to the Kartvelian group of languages, but it is classed together with Iranian languages, of which it has less than 20%, or 800 word vocabulary (V.I.Abaev p.103).
In contrast with Ossetian, the Iranian languages of the Caucasus Jewish refugees from Persia Tati and Persian settlers Talyshi are IE flexitive type languages.
Indo-European classification of Ossetian enabled a Scytho-Iranian theory that it descended from Alanic, the language of the Alans, medieval tribes emerging from the earlier Sarmatians, and by extension to be the only surviving descendant of a Sarmatian language.

It has been claimed that the two main semantic factors triggering split-ergativity usually occur in complementary distribution: in languages with TAM split ‘there is usually no NP split, but if there is, it is not in accord with Silverstein’s hierarchy’ (Trask 1979: 388).
An example is offered by Northern Talyshi, a Northwestern (Tatic) Iranian language spoken on the Caspian borderline between the Republic of Azerbaijan and Iran.
This paper focuses on the pronominal system in Northern Talyshi, highlighting the behavioural differences between nominal and pronominal arguments in ergative environments.

 DoBeS — Project
Taking the famous survey published by T. Halasi-Kun and others under the title of "Peoples and Languages of the Caucasus" in 1962 as a basis, we may assume that the Caucasus is the residence of at least 70 languages belonging to four linguistic phylums that are spread wide beyond the Caucasus area, viz.
Indo-European (Armenian, Ossetic, Kurdish, Tati, Talyshi, Russian, Greek), Turkic (Azeri, Qumyq, Noghay, Karachay, Balqar a.o.), Afro-Asiatic (Aysor, Arabic) and Mongolian (Qalmyq), and three families that are believed to be authochthonous, viz.
As a matter of fact, not more than 10 of these languages have adopted a written standard, in connection with more widespread usage as lingua francas of certain regions.

A minimal declension characterises nouns in the singular, opposing the unmarked direct (absolutive) case to the marked oblique case.
Anomalies in pronominal alignment are reportedly common to other Iranian languages (Haig to appear) and possibly to other varieties of Talyshi (Yarshater 1996).
As for Northern Talyshi, scholars have explained the phenomenon by either evoking an accusative “contamination” of the whole nominal domain (Miller 1953) or stressing the high ranking of 1/2-person pronouns in Silverstein’s lexical hierarchy (Schulze 2000).

 HRELP - Gerardo De Caro
Gerardo’s PhD, which further develops his MA thesis, is intended to provide a fieldwork-based account of argument marking patterns in Talyshi.
A member of the North-Western Iranian group, Talyshi is spoken in strikingly diverse varieties along the Caspian coastline between Iran and the Republic of Azerbaijan as well as by diasporic communities in major urban centres of the former Soviet Union.
Emphasis will be placed on the factors affecting Talyshi split-ergativity in terms of synchronic arrangement, historical development and areal position.
