Ethnologue lists 6500 speakers but Magomedova and Abulaeva (2007) list 20000 speakers of the language. Akhvakh has several dialects though sources do not agree on the number. Ethnologue lists Kaxib Northern Akhvakh and Southern Akhvakh (which can be further subdivided into the Tlyanub and Tsegob subdialects).
