Oroshor is a Pamir language spoken in the village of Roshorv and its environs in Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Province of Tajikisatan by about 2,400-3,000 people. It is usually considered a dialect of Shughni.
Note: Roshorv does not appear on this map - the nearest place that does is Lyapnazar, to the north of Roshorv.
Oroshor is not usually written, but there is a way of writing it using the Latin alphabet for Shughni.
