Aspects of Santhali Aspects of Santhali Uttam Prasad Bhattarai* Abstract This paper attempts to present the aspect of Santhali language that belongs to north Munda subgroup of Austro-Asiatic language family. The Santhali language which is spoken by Santhal ethnic residing in Jhapa, Morang and Sunsari district is endangered language. This language needs promotion, protection and preservation from the authority concerned. Thus, the main purpose of this article is to record a little part of this language. The primary data were based on the date collected for the mini project conducted for University Grants Commission, Nepal. By applying purposive sampling a set of questionnaires was distributed to literate Santhali of their mother tongue. This is paper is divided into four sections- introduction, interpretation of Santhali aspect, findings and recommendations followed by acknowledgement and reference. After interpretation the suffix '-akada' and '-aka' are found to be past and non-past perfective marker respectively in transitive verbs. Similarly the suffix '-akan' and '-akana' occur as past and non-past perfective markers in intransitive verbs respectively. In the same way '-kan' occurs as past and '-a' occurs as non past habitual marker. The suffix '-kan' and '-kana' are found to be past and non-past progressive markers respectively. This brief paper will be beneficial to the people concerned in the field of ethnic languages in general and specific for Santhali language . The data obtained covered a small range of the community. It, therefore, is strongly recommended that several other researches be carried out for promotion and preservation of this language. Key words Santhali, aspect, Perfective and imperfective, promotion, and preservation. 1. Introduction Santhali, one of the endangered languages of Nepal, is the native language of Santhals and this language belongs to north Munda group of Austro-Asiatic language family. The census report conducted in 2011 shows that 53,535 Santhals are found to have lived in Jhapa, Morang and Sunsari districts in Province 1, Nepal. It is 0.31 percent of the total population of Nepal. 1.1 The Aspect of the Santhali language will be sketched in this very brief paper. The primary data of this paper were based on the data collected for the Mini Project conducted for University Grants Commission, Nepal, visiting a certain number of people in the stated community (Bhattarai, 2012). 1.2 To represent the total population of the study, the Santhals who can communicate and write in their mother tongue were selected by applying purposive sampling. The researcher prepared a set of questionnaires in order to search on the Santhali morphology. The researcher gave the set of questionnaires to the native speakers of the Santhali language and asked them to provide answer. He facilitated them to their * Bhattarai is an Associate Professor in English , Damak Multiple Campus. Damak Campus Journal, Vol. 9 JULY 2020 1 easiness. Then, the stated data were verified from library visit. The essential illustrations to furnish the research which could not be covered in the field study were collected from the secondary source. 2. Aspect Aspect concerns (Leech and Svartvik, 1988) the manner in which a verbal action is experienced regarded (for example as complete or in progress). To make it more explicitly Leech and Svartvik (1988:306) further writes, 'English has two marked aspects: the Progressive aspect and the Perfective aspect'. Giving the grammatical meaning of Aspect, Oxford Advanced Learner Dictionary (1997:60) shows that aspect is 'a form of a verb that indicates the way in which an action is regarded', e.g. whether it happened in the past but is still continuing or relevant in some way, or whether it is completely finished': 'she has lived here for ten years' is different in aspect from ‘she lived here for ten years'. In this regard it is apt to quote Crystal (2003:36) aspect is 'A category used in the grammatical description of verbs (along with Tense and mood), referring primarily to the way the grammar marks the duration or type of temporal activity denoted by verb'. Santhali language has following aspectual pattern: 2. 1 Perfective aspect 2. 2 Imperfective aspect 2.1 Perfective aspect This aspect is further divided into past and non-past. 2.1.1 Past perfective aspect ׀ i. iɲ ðakai ɲ dʒʌm-akaða tahena ׀ iɲ ðakai ɲ dʒʌm-akaða tahena 1SG rice-1SG eat-PRS-PST I had eaten rice. ׀ ii. abu da?-e ɲur-akaða tahena ׀ abu da?-e ɲur-akaða tahena 1PL.INCL water-1PL.INCL drink-PRV PST We (including listener) had drunk water. ׀ iii. uni ðakaj d ʒʌm-akaða tahena ׀ uni ðaka-j dʒʌm-akaða tahena 3SG rice-3SG eat-PRV PST He had eaten rice.

R. Ambedkar) Abstract The Hindu Code Bill are the thoughts of such a social reformer who want to reforme the conditions of women making the important laws and regulations about Indian women. In this series Dr. B.R. Ambedkar proves himself such a thinker in India who thinks about reformation of Indian women legally. According to Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, “Women is a main piller of a family whose role is an important in a family i.e. she is first teacher of a child and to make a personality of a child, she has in the centre of a family. If a women in a family is literate, then she will try to literate her child in any condition and literacy is very essential for a civilized society as well as literacy is aware to a women for her rights in a society. Before this Bill, the conditions of Indian women were very miserable—she has no right to take education, no right to live free life, she always depend on her family members like a slave in society. So, the Hindu Code Bill was a step which tried to reform the conditions of Indian women and tried to give the rights of education, services, freedom and to live the life like a man.
