Since the Hakuchi are considered an isolated Shapsug clan, their dialect differs little from that of the Shapsug dialect. It is also believed that Hakuchis are a blend of various Circassian tribes: Shapsug, Ubykh, Abdzakh and others. This is why Hakuchi dialect has some interesting phonetics in it.
