About this book
Studies In Northern Himalayan Dialects
Year: 1903
These articles throw some light on the ancient Northern Himalayan dialects and their connection with some other dialects and languages. Some of these dialects have claims to be languages as well. This study is based on 1901 census. The scholarly author has gathered the linguistic characteristic of each dialect very minutely and put each alphabet, vowel, consonant and phonetic symbols in Roman English as accurately as possible. Each language's area of usage has also been mentioned. Each word from each dialect has also been given an English equivalent to explain its meaning. This collection is likely to be very helpful and informative to the researchers and scholars of linguistics and Northern Indian languages
