Description
A Sketch of the Northern Balochi Language is a seminal work in linguistic research, authored by M. Longworth Dames and published by Gyan Publishing House. This comprehensive study provides an in-depth examination of the Northern Balochi language, one of the Iranian languages spoken in the Balochistan region.
The book is structured to serve both academic researchers and language enthusiasts, combining theoretical linguistic analysis with practical application. It features three main components: a detailed grammar section that explains the phonological and morphosyntactic structures of Northern Balochi, an extensive vocabulary that catalogs essential words and their meanings, and authentic specimens of the language drawn from real usage.
Dames’ meticulous approach to documenting this lesser-studied language makes this work invaluable for historical linguists, regional scholars, and anyone interested in Iranian languages and their development. The book remains a foundational reference text for understanding Northern Balochi linguistic patterns and cultural significance.
