The language Tagoi is a Kordofanian language, closely related to the Tegali, and is near the town of Rashad, spoken in Southern Kordofan in Sudan, about 12 N, 31 E.
Unlike tegali that language has a complex noun class system, which appears as if the language of Tagoi far more typical Niger - Congo languages accepted borrowings. It has several dialects, including Umali ( Tumale ) Goy ( Tagoi proper ), Moreb and Orig ( ŋóóriɡ, Turjuk ).
