Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Linguistic Studies From the Himalayas, Vol. 18: Being Studies in the Grammar of Fifteen Himalayan Dialects This work is a continuation and, so far as some districts are concerned, a completion of Vol. XII of the Society's Monographs, entitled The Languages of the Northern Himalayas. There will be found in these pages studies in about fifteen languages or dialects, making along with those in the other volume a total of forty-one. The linguistic distribution is as follows: - Tibeto-Burman :two languages, Pürik and Lower Kanaurî and the Chitkhuli dialect. Lähnda: two dialects, Kägani and the Bährämgäla dialect. Western Pähäri: nine dialects in three groups, viz., five Koei dialects from Bashahr, spoken in Rohru, Rampur, Baghi, Sürkhuh Pargana, and Dodra Kuar; two from Jubbal, north and south; two from Suket, Eastern Suketi and Suket Siraji. Pänjabi: two dialects spoken in Bilaspur and Nalagarh, divided into six sub-dialects. There are also notes on the secret vocabularies of the Qalandar, who are conjurers and trainers of monkeys and bears, the Qasai or butchers, and of Panjabi gamblers. The vocabulary of the first-named is fairly complete. The others are very brief, but probably the total number of secret words is small. All are Aryan, except the Tibeto-Burman languages. As regards geographical position, we may say that. Purik is spoken between Kashmir and Ladakh round about Kargil, Lower Kanauri in Bashahr State immediately to the north-east of the five Koci dialects; Kagam is spoken in the Hazara district of the North-West Frontier Province, Bahramgala in Jammu State south of the Pir Panjal Pass.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Languages of the Northern Himalayas: Being Studies in the Grammar of Twenty-Six Himalayan Dialects I have endeavoured to make the representation of pronunciation rigidly accurate. This has entailed considerable labour. Only those who have tried to reproduce with absolute accuracy the nuances of pronunciation found in a language which has never been reduced to writing can understand what it means. In order to catch exactly the sounds produced by various speakers not only must one listen with unfailing care, but one must lay aside all prepossessions derived from a study of other dialects. It is dangerous to infer the pronunciation of a word in any new dialect. The value of the services of a literate speaker of a hill language is often lessened by his unconscious tendency to assimilate his words to some better-known literary form of speech.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a contribution to the documentation of the linguistic situation of the Kinnaur district in Himachal Pradesh (Indian Himalayas) which has been so far almost undescribed. The Sino-Tibetan languages Kinnauri and Navakat and the Indo-Aryan language Kinnauri Pahari, all spoken in Kinnaur, are described both individually and as parts of a multifaceted linguistic ecology that extends into the surrounding wider Himalayan region. The author combines traditional linguistic description and a quantitative computational procedure to disentangle genealogical and areal characteristics of the languages of Kinnaur.

Download or read book Trans Himalayan Linguistics written by Thomas Owen-Smith and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Himalaya and surrounding regions are amongst the world's most linguistically diverse places. Of an estimated 600 languages spoken here at Asia's heart, few are researched in depth and many virtually undocumented. Historical developments and relationships between the region's languages also remain poorly understood. This book brings together new work on under-researched Himalayan languages with investigations into the complexities of the area's linguistic history, offering original data and perspectives on the synchrony and diachrony of the Greater Himalayan Region. The volume arises from papers given and topics discussed at the 16th Himalayan Languages Symposium in London in 2010. Most papers focus on Tibeto-Burman languages. These include topics relating to individual - mostly small and endangered - languages, such as Tilung, Shumcho, Rengmitca, Yongning Na and Tshangla; comparative research on the Tibetic, East Bodish and Tamangic language groups; and several papers whose scope covers the whole language family. The remaining paper deals with the origins of Burushaski, whose genetic affiliation remains uncertain. This book will be of special interest to scholars of Tibeto-Burman, and historical as well as general linguists.
