In the 1991 Yugoslav census, 54.8% of the inhabitants of the Gora municipality said that they spoke the Gorani language, roughly in proportion to the number who considered themselves primarily ethnic Gorani. A little less than half the inhabitants of Gora declared that they spoke the Serbian language

Traditional Music

Traditional Gorani folk music includes a two-beat dance called "kolo", which is a circle dance focused on the foot movements, it always starts on the right foot and moves in an anti-clockwise direction. Kolo is usually accompanied by instrumental music made often with a Zurle or Kaval and Tupan or Davul kolo's are less frequently accompanied by singing as they are in neighboring ethnic groups such as the Albanians and Serbians.
