Abstract:

In Srinagar Burushaski: A Descriptive and Comparative Account with Analyzed
Texts Sadaf Munshi offers the structural description of a lesser-known
regional variety of Burushaski spoken in Srinagar, the summer capital of the
Indian-administered state of Jammu & Kashmir. The description includes a
comprehensive and comparative account of the structural features of Srinagar
Burushaski in terms of phonology, morphology, lexicon and syntax. The grammar
is supported by an extensive digital corpus housed at the University of North
Texas Digital Library. Using contemporary spoken language samples from
Srinagar, Nagar, Hunza and Yasin varieties of Burushaski as well as data from
the available literature, Munshi provides a thorough understanding of the
historical development of Srinagar Burushaski, complementing the existing
studies on Burushaski dialectology.
