Wikipedia
Moghol (also known as Mogholi [ISO 639-3]) is a Mongolic language spoken in Afghanistan by the Moghol People around Herat, where Dari (Persian) is the common language. In the 1970s, when the German scholar Michael Weiers did fieldwork on the language, few people knew the language, most knew it passively and most were older than 40 years. It is probably extinct by now. Moghol people in northern Afghanistan now speak Pashto.
