Commonly referred to as the ‘Hindi heartland’, Uttar Pradesh is the most populous and the fourth largest state of India. Its linguistic tapestry is unique as it is home to not just Hindi and a host of other Scheduled and Non-Scheduled languages, but also to some secret tongues, devised purely to communicate within smaller communities by members of the same. This volume, People’s Linguistic Survey of India, The Languages of Uttar Pradesh (volume twenty-nine, part two) focusses on the majority as well as minority languages of the state: linguistic characteristics, grammatical features, folklore and vocabulary of various languages are discussed to give the reader as broad a sense of the languages as possible.
