Telengit is a Turkic language spoken in the Altai Republic in Russia by the Telengits.^[2] It is widespread in the Kosh-Agach and Ulagan districts of the Altai Republic.^[1]

The Telengit are also known as the Telengit-kiji or Chui-kiji.

It is classified as a Siberian Turkic language. It is considered to be a dialect of the Southern Altai language, along with the Teleut and the literary varieties.

The Telengit language can be divided into two main dialects, the Telengit-Teles and Chui dialects.

The Telengit-Teles dialect can be subdivided in to the following subdialects:

• Balyktuyul
• Kara-Kudyur
• Chibilin
• Saratan-Yazulin
  • Saratan
  • Yuzulin
• Cholushman
• Chibit

The Chui dialect can be subdivided in to the following subdialects:^[3]

• Kosh-Agach
• Jazzator - This subdialect has a unique feature that is not typical of other dialects of the Altaic language: affixes with a wide rounded vowel [ӧ] occur after bases with a narrow rounded vowel [ӱ].

The Telengit language differs from the literary form of the Altai language in phonetics and morphology.

Instead of the initial [ш], [ч] is used. For example, Telengit чирдек (çirdek), Altay: ширдек 'felt carpet'. Also, in the roots of words, [ш] is used instead of [ч] (Teleñit тепчи (tepçi), Altay: тепши 'bowl').^[4]

The sounds [ф], [в], [ш], [ж], [щ], [ц] are not native Telengit and are found mainly in borrowings from the Russian language.^[1]

An alphabet for the Ulagan dialect was proposed in 2016.^[5]

But the alphabet used is similar to that used in the Altaic language.^[7]:^{[citation needed]}
