List of Eastern Indo-Aryan languages

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Eastern Indo-Aryan languages include some 210 (SIL estimate) languages and dialects spoken by about many people in Asia; this language group is a part of the Indo-Aryan language branch of the Indo-European language family. The Eastern Group is divided into subgroups, which contain individual languages. This group is also called the Magadhan family, as these languages are all derived from the Middle Indic language of Magadhi Prakrit, a Dramatic Prakrit spoken in the eastern Indian subcontinent. Magadhi Prakrit later evolved into Ardhamagadhi ("Half-Magadhi"), and then into a form of Apabhramsha (late Middle Indic vernacular) called Apabhramsa Avahatta or Purvi Apabhramsa (Eastern Apabhramsa) before the turn of the first millennium CE. This form of Apabhramsa later evolved into three different groups of languages: the Bengali-Assamese group, the Oriya group, and the Bihari group.

The following languages have not been sorted into subgroups within the Eastern Indo-Aryan language family.
