Kalash Language

Kalash Language, spoken by the Kalash people of northern Pakistan, is an Indo-Aryan language related to Dardic languages. It features unique phonetic and grammatical structures influenced by its isolated mountain environment. The language is primarily oral, with limited written use, and reflects the rich cultural heritage and traditions of the Kalash community. Preserving Kalash is vital for maintaining their identity, and efforts are ongoing to document and promote its use. It coexists with other regional languages, serving as a crucial cultural marker for the Kalash people's heritage and social cohesion.
