'''Barbuz'''(''bërbëzg'', <small>Barbuz:</small> [[Help:IPA|<nowiki>[bæʁbæzg]</nowiki>]]) is a Barbuzic language spoken in central Talkoch. It is one of the most spoken non-Moshurian languages in the Moshurian Empire, being spoken by about 5 million people natively, and one of the only agglutinative [[Yeldhic languages|Yeldhic]] languages, aside from other languages in the Barbuzic language family.
 
Their exonym, "Barbuz", comes from Middle [[Moshurian]] ''Barbüze''(<small>Moshurian:</small> [[IPA for Moshurian|<nowiki>[bɑɽˈbyːzə]</nowiki>]]), which was a Moshurianised form of their endonym ''bërbëzg''. Their exonym in Moshurian may have been based on their exonym in [[Ilda]], which was ''barbusās'', or its [[Maranz]] equivalent, ''balbošas''.
