Description
This authoritative work by George A. Grierson provides an exhaustive examination of the Bihari language and its various dialects as spoken in the Bihar region and the North-Western Provinces during the colonial period. The text systematically analyzes seven distinct grammars and subdialects, offering detailed linguistic frameworks for understanding the grammatical structures, variations, and regional characteristics of Bihari speech patterns.
Grierson’s scholarly approach documents the phonological, morphological, and syntactic features of each dialect, making this volume an invaluable resource for linguists, historians, and scholars of Indo-Aryan languages. The work reflects the intensive linguistic research conducted in nineteenth-century India and remains a foundational reference for understanding the historical development and regional variations of the Bihari language community.
