Eastern or Konda Mansi is an extinct member of the Mansi languages, and was spoken in Russia in the Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug around the river Konda. It became extinct in 2018, when its last speaker Maksim Shivtorov (Максим Семенович Шивторов) died.{{Cite book |last=Salminen | first=Tapani | chapter=Demography, endangerment, and revitalization | title=The Uralic languages |date=2023 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-1-138-65084-8 |editor-last=Abondolo |editor-first=Daniel Mario |edition=2nd |series=Routledge Language Family |location=London New York |editor-last2=Valijärvi |editor-first2=Riitta-Liisa|page=102}} It has Khanty and Siberian Tatar influence. There is vowel harmony, and for {{IPA|*/æː/}} it has {{IPAblink|œː}}, frequently diphthongized.

In Russian linguistics, the Konda dialect used to be called the "southern Mansi (Kondinsky) dialect" ({{langx|ru|южно-мансийский (кондинский) диалект}}Кузакова Е.А. Южно-мансийский (кондинский) диалект.: автореф. на соискат уч. степ. канд. филол. н. Л., 1963. (in Russian)) or "eastern Mansi dialect group" ({{langx|ru|восточная группа диалектов}}).{{sfn|Ромбандеева|1976}}

Some remarks:

  1. Neither in Middle nor Lower Konda do these appear at the beginning of words.
  2. In Middle Konda it does not appear in the beginning of words, but in Lower Konda it does.
  3. /ŋ/ is also spelled with just н if it comes before к or х. This rule does not include suffixes; like in мынгым /mənɣəm/

Some remarks:

  1. Only present in palatal environments.
  2. It has the allophone /iː/.
  3. Neither in Middle nor Lower Konda do these appear in non-initial syllable positions.
  4. Neither in Middle nor Lower Konda do /aː/ appear in first syllable positions.

==Diphthongs==

In Middle Konda, the diphthongs are /øæ/ or /øæ̯/ and /oɒ/ found in both first and non-initial syllable positions.

In Lower Konda, the /æø/ diphthong is usually realized as [œ] which is only found in first syllable positions, while /øæ/ is found in both first and non-initial syllable positions.

Alphabet

In the few instances that Eastern Mansi literature was printed and was from the native areas, it used an unchanged Russian-Cyrillic script like this:

The highlighted letters are found in loanwords, except нг which represents a single nasal consonantКузакова, Евдокия Александровна, [https://ouipiir.ru/sites/default/files/kuzakova_ea_sost_mansiiskorusskii_slovar_kondinskii_dialekt%20%281%29.pdf Мансийско-русский словарь.
