The Tobol-Irtysh dialect is a Turkic dialect spoken in Tyumen and Omsk Oblast in Russia,[1] and gets its name from the Tobol and Irtysh rivers.

It is generally classed among the dialects of the Tatars of Siberia, of which some also speak Baraba.[2] Johanson groups these dialects under the name of Western Siberian Tatar.[3]
