Lop , also known as Lopnor or Lopnur is a language spoken in Lop County in Xinjiang, China.
[edit] Classification
Lop belongs to the Karluk branch of Turkic languages, along with Uyghur and Uzbek. Its status as a distinct language from Uyghur is disputed. Although it has some features that differentiate it from standard Uyghur, it is considered by some linguists to be one of its dialects.[1]
