Description
This authoritative linguistic treatise examines the seven grammars and dialects of the Bihari language, a significant Indo-Aryan language spoken in Bihar and the Northern Parts of the North-Western Provinces during the colonial period. George A. Grierson’s meticulous scholarship documents the phonological, morphological, and syntactic features of these distinct dialects and subdialects.

Grierson’s systematic approach to dialect classification and analysis has influenced subsequent linguistic research in South Asian languages.
