Shushtari ( [ʃuːʃtæˈɾiː]) is a language variety spoken in and around the city of Shushtar in Khuzestan Province in southwestern Iran. It constitutes a Southwestern Iranian dialect group with the Dezfuli dialect, which is spoken in Dezful, the adjacent city. The main difference between Dezfuli and Shushtari is in vowel pronunciation.The list of linguists has classified Shushtri-Dezfuli dialect independently from Persian. Glottolog places Dezfuli-Shoshtri dialects next to Lori language in a group called Lori-Dezfuli.In the article on the dialects of Khuzestan, Iranica considers the Dezfuli-Shoshtri and Bakhtiari dialects to belong to the southern group of the Luri language.
