Shor (ISO 639-3: cjs) is a severely endangered South Siberian Turkic language spoken in Mountain Shoria in southern Kemerovo Oblast, Russia. A widely cited 2010 figure gives about 2,800 speakers, far fewer than the ethnic Shor population, and intergenerational transmission is weak. The language has two principal dialects, Mrassu and Kondoma, and is agglutinative, with vowel harmony and a basic subject–object–verb order. Shor uses a Cyrillic orthography; its written tradition was interrupted from 1942 to 1988, but it has since been revived and is now taught and published in limited educational and cultural settings.
