They speak Assamese language, though they used to speak Moran language which was alive till the early 20th century that was closely related to the Dimasa language."I have recently been able to demonstrate that Gurdon’s dialect is a variety of Dimasa, since it retains all the features examined here: it has the same consonant clusters and diphthongs as Dimasa." They once shared the same allied customs with other Bodo-Kachari groups but after their conversion to Vaishnavism, the customs began to diminish but still those customs can be seen intermixed with Vaishnavism.

Satra (Ekasarana Dharma)
Satras are institutional centers associated with the Ekasarana tradition of Vaishnavism, largely found in the Indian state of Assam and neighboring regions. Numbering in the hundreds, these centers are generally independent of each other and under the control of individual ''adhikaras'' (or ''satradhikars''), though they can be grouped into four different ''Sanghatis'' (orders). These centers, in the minimum, maintain a prayer house (''Namghar'', or '' Kirtan-ghar''), initiate lay people into the Ekasarana tradition and include them as disciples of the Satra from whom taxes and other religious duties are extracted. The Neo-Vaishnavite satra culture started in the 16th century. They grew rapidly in the 17th century and patronage extended to them by first the Koch kingdom and later the Ahom kingdom was crucial in the spread the Ekasarana religion. Many of the larger Satras house hundreds of celibate and non-celibate ''bhakats'' (monks), hold vast lands and are repositories of re ...
