We have grown in experience, tackling more than 300 diverse assignments, for more than 100 clients in several states of India. Languages of the peoples of India Language, even in its primal form as signs and shapes, has been arterial to human development since the beginning of time. It gives expression, in spoken and written form, to the culture and psychology of a people, to their strivings. It is an instrument of struggle and development of society. In the fl ow of history, many languages have surfaced, many have drowned, and many have been transported to distant shores. Those languages that remained in constant development survived. They have developed along with society, incorporating new words and enriching their vocabulary. No other country of the world is as linguistically rich as India. There are over two thousand spoken languages and dialects today. Some of the languages are spoken by crores of people, many others by a few thousand. Indian languages have distinct alphabets and most of them are native to India. A signifi cant aspect of Indian alphabets is the manner in which they are organised in accordance with the phonetic principle – unlike the Roman alphabet with its random sequence of letters. As with the development of languages elsewhere in the world, the languages and dialects of the Indian subcontinent have enriched and infl uenced each other over thousands of years. In the long course of the development of Indian civilisation, many languages and dialects have died out, many new languages have been born, and the languages of India have both infl uenced and been infl uenced by the languages of other peoples of the world with whom the peoples of India have interacted. Eighteen languages are at present in the Government of India’s list of ‘scheduled languages’. These are Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Malayalam, Manipuri, Marathi, Nepali, Oriya, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu and Urdu. Hindi and English are the ‘offi cial languages’ of communication. This year, our calendar portrays the incomparable richness of Indian languages, with a special focus on some of their most earthy expressions and forms, the number restricted by the fact that there are only twelve months in the year! 2007 new concept JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH APRIL SUN 7 14 21 28 SUN 4 11 18 25 SUN 4 11 18 25 SUN 1 8 15 22 29 MON 1 8 15 22 29 MON 5 12 19 26 MON 5 12 19 26 MON 2 9 16 23 30 TUE 2 9 16 23 30 TUE 6 13 20 27 TUE 6 13 20 27 TUE 3 10 17 24 WED 3 10 17 24 31 WED 7 14 21 28 WED 7 14 21 28 WED 4 11 18 25 THU 4 11 18 25 THU 1 8 15 22 THU 1 8 15 22 29 THU 5 12 19 26 FRI 5 12 19 26 FRI 2 9 16 23 FRI 2 9 16 23 30 FRI 6 13 20 27 SAT 6 13 20 27 SAT 3 10 17 24 SAT 3 10 17 24 31 SAT 7 14 21 28 MAY JUNE JULY AUGUST SUN 6 13 20 27 SUN 3 10 17 24 SUN 1 8 15 22 29 SUN 5 12 19 26 MON 7 14 21 28 MON 4 11 18 25 MON 2 9 16 23 30 MON 6 13 20 27 TUE 1 8 15 22 29 TUE 5 12 19 26 TUE 3 10 17 24 31 TUE 7 14 21 28 WED 2 9 16 23 30 WED 6 13 20 27 WED 4 11 18 25 WED 1 8 15 22 29 THU 3 10 17 24 31 THU 7 14 21 28 THU 5 12 19 26 THU 2 9 16 23 30 FRI 4 11 18 25 FRI 1 8 15 22 29 FRI 6 13 20 27 FRI 3 10 17 24 31 SAT 5 12 19 26 SAT 2 9 16 23 30 SAT 7 14 21 28 SAT 4 11 18 25 SEPTEMBER OCTOBER NOVEMBER DECEMBER SUN 30 2 9 16 23 SUN 7 14 21 28 SUN 4 11 18 25 SUN 30 2 9 16 23 MON 3 10 17 24 MON 1 8 15 22 29 MON 5 12 19 26 MON 31 3 10 17 24 TUE 4 11 18 25 TUE 2 9 16 23 30 TUE 6 13 20 27 TUE 4 11 18 25 WED 5 12 19 26 WED 3 10 17 24 31 WED 7 14 21 28 WED 5 12 19 26 THU 6 13 20 27 THU 4 11 18 25 THU 1 8 15 22 29 THU 6 13 20 27 FRI 7 14 21 28 FRI 5 12 19 26 FRI 2 9 16 23 30 FRI 7 14 21 28 SAT 1 8 15 22 29 SAT 6 13 20 27 SAT 3 10 17 24 SAT 1 8 15 22 29 Andamanese Andamanese languages form a unique lingua family spoken in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. They can be divided into two broad subfamilies – Great Andamanese and South Andamanese. The Great Andamanese languages are virtually extinct with the 2006 JANUARY exception of ‘Pucikwar’ – a language spoken by a handful of people at last count. On the other hand, the S M T W T F S South Andamanese languages have managed to survive primarily because of the geographical isolation of their 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 speakers and the aversion of indegenous people like the Onges and the Jarawas to outside contact. Onge, Jarawa 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 and Sentinelese are the important South Andamanese langaguages but the total numbers of speakers would at 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 best be only a few hundred. 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 new concept Awadhi 2006 Spoken by an estimated two million people, Awadhi is often considered FEBRUARY to be a dialect of Hindi. It primarily belongs to the Awadh region of S M T W T F S Uttar Pradesh and Lucknow is the tradtional hub-centre of the 1 2 3 4 language. Awadhi speaking people are also found in Bihar, Madhya 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Pradesh and the neighbouring country of Nepal. A lot of classical 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 literature has been written in Awadhi. These include literary epics like the Ramacharitmanas of Tulsidas. 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Gangapari, Mirzapuri, Pardesi and Uttari are some of the local 26 27 28 variations of Awadhi. The Hindustani language that is today widely spoken on the Fijian Islands is considered to have descended from Awadhi. new concept Bhili MARCH 2006 Bhili is an Indo-Aryan language spoken in west-central India – in the region east of Ahmedabad. Bhagoria, Bhil, S M T W T F S Bhilbari, Bhilboli, Bhilla, Lengotia and Vil are some of the other names for Bhili language which is written using a variation of the Devanagari script. 1 2 3 4 Bhili is a part of the Bhil languages spoken by some six 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 million Bhils residing in western and central India and also some pockets of eastern India. They constitute the primary languages of the southern Aravalli Range in Rajasthan 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 and the western Satpura Range in Madhya Pradesh. Bhil languages form an important linguistic link between 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Gujarati and Rajasthani and include languages like Garasia, Bareli, Bauria, Bhilori, Dhodia, Dungra, Mawchi, Pardhi, 26 27 28 29 30 31 Rathawi and Wagdi. new concept Chhattisgarhi 2006 APRIL Chhattisgarhi has approximately 11.5 million speakers, concentrated in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh and in S M T W T F S the adjacent states of Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Bihar. Closely related to Bagheli and Awadhi, it is classifi ed in 30 1 the East Central Zone of the Indo-Aryan languages. Like Sanskrit and Hindi, Chhattisgarhi is written using the 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Devanagari script. Chhattisgarhi is recognised as an eastern dialect of Hindi, although many linguists consider it to be distinct enough from Hindi to be be regarded as a separate 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 language.

It Is Also One Of The 22 Official Languages Recognized In The Constitution Of India. Urdu Is Historically Associated With The Muslims Of The Northern Indian Subcontinent. Apart From Specialized Vocabulary, Urdu Is Mutually Intelligible With Standard Hindi, Another Recognized Register Of Hindustani. The Urdu Variant Received Recognition And Patronage Under British Rule When The British Replaced The Persian And Local Official Languages With The Urdu And English Languages In The North Indian Regions Of Jammu and Kashmir In 1846 And Punjab In 1849.

Migration by an Indo-European people was first hypothesized in the late 18th century, following the discovery of the Indo-European language family, when similarities between Western and Indian languages had been noted. Given these similarities, a single source or origin was proposed, which was diffused by migrations from some original homeland. This linguistic argument is supported by archaeological and anthropological research. Genetic research reveals that those migrations form part of a complex genetical puzzle on the origin and spread of the various components of the Indian population. Literary research reveals similarities between various, geographically distinct, Indo-Aryan historical cultures. The Indo-Aryan migrations started in approximately 1800 BCE, after the invention of the war chariot, and also brought Indo-Aryan languages into the Levant and possibly Inner Asia.

  • Dialectology Vis-À-Vis Linguistic Theory
    1 Synchronic Variation and Diachronic Change in Dialects of Marathi Sonal Kulkarni-Joshi & Manasi Kelkar Deccan College Post Graduate and Research Institute, Pune.1 1. Introduction: dialectology vis-à-vis linguistic theory This paper investigates linguistic variation and change in Marathi at the synchrony-diachrony interface.2 Specifically it aims to address the issue of whether and to what extent synchronic variation in contemporary regional varieties of Marathi reflects diachronic developments in the language. Saussure, who introduced the synchrony-diachrony dichotomy, laid the foundation of a „synchronic linguistics‟ and nineteenth century linguists grappled with the Saussurean dilemma of studying either language structure OR language history. Subsequently, linguistics witnessed an ideological turn as a consequence of which synchrony and diachrony came to be seen as complementary aspects of language analysis. “Structured heterogeneity” (cf. Weinreich, Labov and Herzog 1968) in language became the key to understanding language change. It became possible to envision a discipline which would be structural and historical at the same time (p. 198). An integration of the two dimensions of language study into a single analytical framework has been reported to be fruitful in investigating language change (e.g. Croft 2003, Kulkarni-Joshi 2016). Actuation and transmission of language change became central concerns not only in historical linguistics but also in sociolinguistics (e.g. Weinreich et al‟s seminal 1968 publication). Dialectology in the eighteenth century had been but a handmaiden to historical linguistics. The role of dialectology vis-à-vis linguistic theory has undergone a change in the past hundred years or so. Dialectology as a sub-discipline of linguistics too is transformed.

  • Genealogical Classification of New Indo-Aryan Languages and Lexicostatistics
    Anton I. Kogan Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Russia, Moscow); [email protected] Genealogical classification of New Indo-Aryan languages and lexicostatistics Genetic relations among Indo-Aryan languages are still unclear. Existing classifications are often intuitive and do not rest upon rigorous criteria. In the present article an attempt is made to create a classification of New Indo-Aryan languages, based on up-to-date lexicosta- tistical data. The comparative analysis of the resulting genealogical tree and traditional clas- sifications allows the author to draw conclusions about the most probable genealogy of the Indo-Aryan languages. Keywords: Indo-Aryan languages, language classification, lexicostatistics, glottochronology. The Indo-Aryan group is one of the few groups of Indo-European languages, if not the only one, for which no classification based on rigorous genetic criteria has been suggested thus far. The cause of such a situation is neither lack of data, nor even the low level of its historical in- terpretation, but rather the existence of certain prejudices which are widespread among In- dologists. One of them is the belief that real genetic relations between the Indo-Aryan lan- guages cannot be clarified because these languages form a dialect continuum. Such an argu- ment can hardly seem convincing to a comparative linguist, since dialect continuum is by no means a unique phenomenon: it is characteristic of many regions, including those where Indo- European languages are spoken, e.g. the Slavic and Romance-speaking areas. Since genealogi- cal classifications of Slavic and Romance languages do exist, there is no reason to believe that the taxonomy of Indo-Aryan languages cannot be established.
