'''Minurese'''(''minūrikit'', <small>Minurese:</small>[[Help:IPA|[miˈnuːɾiki̥t]]]) is | '''Minurese'''(''minūrikit'', <small>Minurese:</small>[[Help:IPA|[miˈnuːɾiki̥t]]]) is an Ontic language spoken by the Minurese people(''minūripiḷ'') of Minūrun. Spoken by around 12,117,078 people natively in Minūrun(around 33% of the population), Minurese is the second most spoken language there by native speakers after [[Logun]] and an official language of the multi-ethnic country. As an Ontic language, it is related to the neighbouring language of [[Ingdikh]]; many Minurese people migrate to Ingdikh at some point in their lives for work thanks to this close relationship. It has also been suggested that the Ontic languages, including Minurese, may be related to the Upé languages which include Logun and [[Teš]]. | ||
As a second language, Minurese is by far the most popular second language in Minūrun; this is mostly due to the domination of Minurese people in Minūrun administration. This has, however, also led to deep ethnic tensions, in particular with the [[Logun]] people, who make up a slim majority of the population; it has also led to the marginalisation of other languages and peoples, in particular the indigenous [[Gomin]], [[Vekanda]], [[Ndigi]] and [[Ojan]]. | As a second language, Minurese is by far the most popular second language in Minūrun; this is mostly due to the domination of Minurese people in Minūrun administration.
