  • 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.

  • 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.

Introduction: State of Jammu and Kashmir was founded by Gulab Singh of Jammu initially by establishing his rule over dozens of chiefdom or principalities of “Aap Raji” period, which emerged at that time in Jammu & Pir Panjal region during the last days of Mughal Empire. He did it by taking advantage of his position as a trustworthy great vassal of powerful Sikh Maharaja of Punjab. Gulab Singh realized British Military might after the defeat of Punjab by colonial power. He preferred to make them friend and also managed to extend his rule over the ancient kingdom of Kashmir by founding the state of Jammu & Kashmir as a consequence of the treaty of Amritsar.
