Nuristani language
Nuristani is a group of languages spoken primarily in the Nuristan province of Afghanistan. It belongs to the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family. There are several distinct dialects, and the languages are known for their unique grammatical structures and vocabulary. Historically, the region was isolated, preserving many archaic features not found in other Indo-Iranian languages. Nuristani languages are not widely spoken outside their region but hold cultural significance and are key to understanding the area's rich ethnic diversity and history. Preservation efforts are crucial, as many of these languages face endangerment.
