The Moghol (also Mogholi) is a Mongolian language and belongs to the southwest Mongolian languages.
Geographically separated from the other Mongolian languages, it is still spoken by a few members of the Hazara ethnic group in the Herat area in Afghanistan . There are only a few, mostly older, speakers of this language; the language may have already died out.
