A Historic & General Overview of the Laari Dialect of Sindhi
تلخیص
Going through the pages of ages, territory of Laar stands
out holding a unique historic stature. Local people used to travel
to various countries, e.g. Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan & India etc.
even before advent of Islam. They had been maintaining
commercial, social, and cultural ties with them. This human
movement would not only have impacted economics but culture
and language also. Exchange of many words would have taken
place, consequently scores of Sindhi words entered in Iranian and
Arabic dictionaries.
Quite a few accents of Laar exist toward Southern
shoreline of Laar. Different accents of Muhanki, Jatki, Manjarai,
Kakrali, Kharai, Jati, Maandar, and Kachhaki languages are
spoken, even today, within territorial limits of coastline of Laar.
In addition, Shikarko and Bheelko accents are also spoken.
However, due to being in the vicinity of Kachh, and due to dwelling
on the coastline, effect of Kachhi accent is noticeable on the
languages of Bheels, Shikaris, and even Muslim folks.
Furthermore, other communities like, Kolhis, Samis, and Kokris
have their distinct accents. Different accents of Laar are
highlighted in this paper.
