Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates. -

Tribes in Uttarakhand: Status and Diversity Dr
International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Development Online ISSN: 2349-4182, Print ISSN: 2349-5979, Impact Factor: RJIF 5.72 www.allsubjectjournal.com Volume 4; Issue 1; January 2017; Page No. 89-93 Tribes in Uttarakhand: Status and diversity Dr. Digar Singh Farswan H.O.D B.Ed. Department, Devbhumi Institute of Professional Education, Lalpur, Rudrapur, Distt.- Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand, India Abstract Tribes of Uttarakhand mainly comprise five major groups namely Jaunsari tribe, Tharu tribe, Raji tribe, Buksa tribe and Bhotiyas. In terms of population Jaunsari tribe is the largest tribal group of the state. Tribes of Uttarakhand represent the ethnic groups residing in the state. Every district of Uttarakhand has more or less a moderate percentage of tribal population. In the state of Uttarakhand, the main concentration of tribal population is in the rural areas. As per records, around 94.50 percent of total tribal population resides in rural areas and the remaining percentage of tribal population lives in urban centers. It is said that officially Uttarakhand is the home of around five tribes. These tribes of Uttarakhand have been scheduled in the Constitution of India. Historical records suggest that the tribes of Uttarakhand are earliest settlers of this region of North India. In the past, their main concentrations were confined to remote hilly and forested areas. The tribes of Uttarakhand have retained their age old traditional ways of living. They represent the distinctive culture and traits of a primitive life. Their traditional norms and socio-cultural practices determine their ethnicity. -

Modality in Tharu: a Comparative Perspective
International Journal of Communication and Media Studies (IJCMS) ISSN (P):2250-0014; ISSN (E): Applied Vol. 7, Issue 4, Oct 2017, 1-8 © TJPRC Pvt. Ltd. MODALITY IN THARU: A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE KRISHNA PRASAD PAUDYAL Department of English, Birendra Multiple Campus (TU), Bharatpur , Chitwan , Nepal ABSTRACT This paper examines the morphosyntactic structures characterizing the notion of modality in two different Tharu languages: Dangaura and Chitoniya, from a comparative perspective. Being the members of the same language family, both of these languages share the vector verbs sʌk used to express the notions of possibility, ability and permission, and pʌr expressing that of necessity and obligation, though there are other verbs like chai/cah ĩ to indicate necessity and pa for the notion of permission. However, they exhibit completely different system in the selection and distribution of devices to express the secondhand knowledge about which the speaker is not sure. Besides, they have a distinct agreement system of their own. KEYWORDS: Possibility, Ability, Permission, Obligation, Necessity and Hearsay Original Article Article Original Received: Jul 15, 2017; Accepted: Aug 03, 2017; Published: Aug 28, 2017; Paper Id.: IJCMSOCT20171 INTRODUCTION Tharu, the largest indigenous community of the nation, is one of the components of the multi-ethnicity in Nepal. Although the population of the Tharu in Nepal is reported to be 1, 737, 470, only 1, 529, 875 of them speak this language (CBS 2012:4, 144). The ethnonym ‘Tharu’ stands for the ethnic group and the language they speak. As the habitat of this ethnic group extends from Mechi to Mahakali, a considerable variation is attested in their language and culture. -
Great Tribal Diversity of Uttarakhand
Great Tribal Diversity of Uttarakhand R. S. Tolia * Officially Uttarakhand is home to as many as five tribes which have been Scheduled in the Constitution of India, more than four decades back in 1967. I have often wondered at the bewildering diversity one witnesses in the habitat, population, ethnicity, socio- cultural norms and practices, modes of livelihoods, languages and dialects and their interactions both with each other and the rest of the inhabitants in their neighborhoods. Lest I am mistaken, or misread, led me hasten to add, that this is precisely the trait which reinforces their so-called ‘tribal’ characteristics and potential of survival, not in the Darwinian sense ! Of the last, they are arguably the fittest, of the homo sapiens inhabiting these parts of our country. Habitats : They are, as it were, omnipresent. The Buxas, who along with the Tharus, populated the thick malarial forests of Turai Bhabar, suffered the brunt of ‘development’, right from the East India Company days, and they continue to be despoliated and dispossessed of their habitat almost two hundred years later, now at the hands of the Uttarakhandis, including ironically the other well-to-do tribals ! What a pity ! Next to the Ban Rajis, I think, it is the Buxas who deserve the top most attention of our Government. Their human development indices are the worst and it is no wonder that the Government of India have included them as one of Primitive Tribes Group ( PTG), as their population is diminishing very fast. Two distinct memories of my close encounter with them persists. First, when I visited one of their villages, majority of them could not suggest any development suggestion which could help them except to say that all they need is some kind of daily wage employment ! Next, a village barely 15 kms away from Dehradun, consisting of Muslims and Buxa families, with a “illiteracy”, not literacy, rate of more than 95 % ! If there was a community at the extreme end of backwardness, it would be hands down our Buxa brothers and sisters. -

As newly appointed contributing editor of the Himalayan Research Bulletin for recent publications, I hope to compile annually a list similar to this. Future lists will be more extensive, particularly in regard to journal articles, which have been slighted here.
