Khufi is a Pamir language spoken in Tajikistan's Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region. It is closely related to Shughni, and is traditionally considered a dialect of it, but is quite distinct. It is spoken in the villages of Khuf and Pastkhuf in the Khufdara River gorge, a right-hand tributary of Panj that descends from the Rushan Range south of the Bartang River and the town of Rushan.
