Adivasi languages

Adivasi languages are the native languages spoken by indigenous communities in India, known as Adivasis. These languages belong to various language families, such as Dravidian, Austroasiatic, and Tibeto-Burman, reflecting the rich diversity of these groups. Adivasi languages are vital to cultural identity and traditional knowledge, often existing alongside dominant regional languages. Despite their importance, many Adivasi languages are endangered due to social, political, and economic pressures, leading to decreased transmission to younger generations. Preserving these languages is crucial for maintaining cultural diversity and recognizing the rights of indigenous communities.
