It is mainly spoken by the Buryat people in the Republic of Buryatia, which is a federal subject of Russia located in Siberia. The Buryat people also inhabit regions in Mongolia and China, where they use their native language for communication as well. There are three main dialect groups within the Buryat language: Eastern, Western, and Southern Buryat, each with distinct phonetic and grammatical features.
