  • Grammatical Gender in Hindukush Languages
    Grammatical gender in Hindukush languages An areal-typological study Julia Lautin Department of Linguistics Independent Project for the Degree of Bachelor 15 HEC General linguistics Bachelor's programme in Linguistics Spring term 2016 Supervisor: Henrik Liljegren Examinator: Bernhard Wälchli Expert reviewer: Emil Perder Project affiliation: “Language contact and relatedness in the Hindukush Region,” a research project supported by the Swedish Research Council (421-2014-631) Grammatical gender in Hindukush languages An areal-typological study Julia Lautin Abstract In the mountainous area of the Greater Hindukush in northern Pakistan, north-western Afghanistan and Kashmir, some fifty languages from six different genera are spoken. The languages are at the same time innovative and archaic, and are of great interest for areal-typological research. This study investigates grammatical gender in a 12-language sample in the area from an areal-typological perspective. The results show some intriguing features, including unexpected loss of gender, languages that have developed a gender system based on the semantic category of animacy, and languages where this animacy distinction is present parallel to the inherited gender system based on a masculine/feminine distinction found in many Indo-Aryan languages. Keywords Grammatical gender, areal-typology, Hindukush, animacy, nominal categories Grammatiskt genus i Hindukush-språk En areal-typologisk studie Julia Lautin Sammanfattning I den här studien undersöks grammatiskt genus i ett antal språk som talas i ett bergsområde beläget i norra Pakistan, nordvästra Afghanistan och Kashmir. I området, här kallat Greater Hindukush, talas omkring 50 olika språk från sex olika språkfamiljer. Det stora antalet språk tillsammans med den otillgängliga terrängen har gjort att språken är arkaiska i vissa hänseenden och innovativa i andra, vilket gör det till ett intressant område för arealtypologisk forskning.

  • BHADARWAHI:AT YPOLOGICAL SKETCH Amitabh Vikram DWIVEDI
    BHADARWAHI: A TYPOLOGICAL SKETCH Amitabh Vikram DWIVEDI Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University, India [email protected] Abstract This paper is a summary of some phonological and morphosyntactice features of the Bhadarwahi language of Indo-Aryan family. Bhadarwahi is a lesser known and less documented language spoken in district of Doda of Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir State in India. Typologically it is a subject dominant language with an SOV word order (SV if without object) and its verb agrees with a noun phrase which is not followed by an overt post-position. These noun phrases can move freely in the sentence without changing the meaning of the sentence. The indirect object generally precedes the direct object. Aspiration, like any other Indo-Aryan languages, is a prominent feature of Bhadarwahi. Nasalization is a distinctive feature, and vowel and consonant contrasts are commonly observed. Infinitive and participle forms are formed by suffixation while infixation is also found in causative formation. Tense is carried by auxiliary and aspect and mood is marked by the main verb. Keywords: Indo-Aryan; less documented; SOV; aspiration; infixation Povzetek Članek je nekakšen daljši povzetek fonoloških in morfosintaktičnih značilnosti jezika badarvahi, enega izmed članov indo-arijske jezikovne družine. Badarvahi je manj poznan in slabo dokumentiran jezik z območja Doda v regiji Jammu v Kašmirju. Tipološko je zanj značilen dominanten osebek in besedni red: osebek, predmet, povedek. Glagoli se povečini ujemajo s samostalniškimi frazami, ki lahko v stavku zavzemajo katerikoli položaj ne da bi spremenile pomen stavka. Nadaljna značilnost jezika badarvahi je tudi to, da indirektni predmeti ponavadi stojijo pred direktnimi predmeti.

  • (In)Stability in Hindu Kush Indo-Aryan Languages Henrik Liljegren Stockholm University
    Chapter 10 Gender typology and gender (in)stability in Hindu Kush Indo-Aryan languages Henrik Liljegren Stockholm University This paper investigates the phenomenon of gender as it appears in 25 Indo-Aryan languages (sometimes referred to as “Dardic”) spoken in the Hindu Kush-Karako- rum region – the mountainous areas of northeastern Afghanistan, northern Pak- istan and the disputed territory of Kashmir. Looking at each language in terms of the number of genders present, to what extent these are sex-based or non-sex- based, how gender relates to declensional differences, and what systems of assign- ment are applied, we arrive at a micro-typology of gender in Hindu Kush Indo- Aryan, including a characterization of these systems in terms of their general com- plexity. Considering the relatively close genealogical ties, the languages display a number of unexpected and significant differences. While the inherited sex-based gender system is clearly preserved in most of the languages, and perhaps even strengthened in some, it is curiously missing altogether in others (such as in Kalasha and Khowar) or seems to be subject to considerable erosion (e.g. in Dameli). That the languages of the latter kind are all found at the northwestern outskirts ofthe Indo-Aryan world suggests non-trivial interaction with neighbouring languages without gender or with markedly different assignment systems. In terms of com- plexity, the southwestern-most corner of the region stands out; here we find a few languages (primarily belonging to the Pashai group) that combine inherited sex- based gender differentiation with animacy-related distinctions resulting in highly complex agreement patterns.

    E3092v2 ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Public Disclosure Authorized (ESIA) Promoting Girls Education in Balochistan (PGEB) Project Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized (AUGUST 2012) Public Disclosure Authorized Project Director PROMOTING GIRLS EDUCATION IN BALOCHISTAN PROJECT SECONDARY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF BALOCHISTAN 0 Tel: + 92 81 9202102 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. The present environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) study of the Promoting Girls Education in Balochistan (PGEB) project has been carried out in compliance with the national environmental laws of Pakistan and the World Bank Operational Policies (OPs). The ESIA delineates the environmental and social issues emerging from the PGEB project, identifies the potentially adverse environmental and social impacts of the project activities, and suggests appropriate mitigation measures to offset or reduce these impacts. The report also suggests guidelines for environmental enhancement opportunities available during various phases of project implementation to maximize the benefit to environment. The mitigation measures and guidelines have been organized in the form of an environmental and social management plan (ESMP) to be implemented by the Project Management Unit (PMU) of the PGEB project for avoiding or mitigating the significant environment and social impacts. 2. The scope of the study entails assessment of the environmental and social impacts of PGEB project activities in the selected 12 districts of the province including Kachhi, Loralai, Jhal Magsi, Khuzdar, Kalat, Lasbela, Jaferabad, Kech, Panjgur, Kila Saifullah, Pishin and Naseerabad districts. The project area spreads over from north to south of the province covering almost 138,011 square kilometers (40%) area of the province. The environmental and social assessment covers physical, biological and social impacts of project activities during various implementation stages from site selection and designing to construction and operational phase of the school buildings.

  • Sanskritic Roots in Panchali Language
    ================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 17:11 November 2017 UGC Approved List of Journals Serial Number 49042 ================================================================ Sanskrit Elements in Panchali (Poguli/Khah) Language Shakeel Ahmed Sohil (Shakeel Rahi), Ph.D. Scholar, M.A. English and Persian NET ====================================================================== Abstract The Pir panchal area of Jammu and Kashmir has linguistic diversity where different languages/dialects are spoken together. No linguistically-oriented research has been undertaken to study these languages, especially Panchali. Panchali is the name given to an Indo Aryan language - Poguli/Khah language, which is the major language of Pir Panchal range and has been classified as regional dialect of Kashmiri spoken outside the valley of Kashmir.It has various alternate names as Poguli,Khashali,Banihali,Paristani,Pogali,Khah,Pogli,Makerkoti,Pugij,Pahari,Khasha and Kohistani.It has 2lac(approx.) number of speakers.It is bordered in the east by Kishtwari and Bhaderwahi ,in the west by Pahari and Gojri,in the south by Dogri and in the north by Kashmiri language.This paper is based on the detailed comparative analysis of Sanskrit and Panchali languages. There exists a closer relation between Panchali than between Sanskrit than Kashmiri. From the semantic, lexical and morphological analysis it becomes clear that Panchali’s basic word stock has been retained longer than Kashmiri. Comparative analysis of various words relating to parts of the body, physical states and condition, names of close relations, animals and birds, edibles, minerals, objects of common use, adverbs , pronouns and numerals are discussed .The Panchali has preserved even some of the archaic forms that can be traced back to Old Indo Aryan.

This project is based on the well-known fact that areas which are closed for a long time and suddenly opened to development programs may suffer geo-biologically due to indiscriminate human interference. It is expected, as well as witnessed in other similar situations, that these programs have a profound transforming influence in affecting the traditional mode of living human populations but are also likely to bring certain deep-seated changes in terms of social psychology and ecology of the area.
