Synopsis
Excerpt from A Grammar of the Kuvi Language: With Copious Examples
In J eypur the recognized language of the country now is Ooriya, but W. Francis' Gazetteer shows that 481 per mille speak Ooriya, and 206 per mille speak Kond. Coupling the above with the fact that Ooriya is an Aryan language and not Dravidian, the Author is warranted in deducing therefrom his belief that the original language of Jeypur and also of Kalahandi was Kond.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed grammar of the Kuvi language, which is spoken in India by the Kond tribe. The author began studying the language due to the inaccessibility of a written form of Kuvi. As he learned, he recognized a great richness in both the language and the traditions of the Kond, a group who have maintained their cultural identity, despite influence from larger Indian populations. The author found that the Kuvi language had much in common with other Dravidian languages and offers some fascinating insights into the historical development of languages in the region. For students of linguistics and anyone interested in the tribal languages of India, this book offers an in-depth study of an important linguistic and cultural subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
