  • Nepal's diverse linguistic heritage evolved from four major language groups: Indo-Aryan, Tibeto-Burman, Mongolian and various indigenous language isolates. According to the 2001 national census, 92 different living languages are spoken in Nepal (a 93rd category was "unidentified"). The major languages of Nepal (percent spoken as mother tongue) are Nepali (57%)(2007 est. ), Maithili (10%), Bhojpuri (7%), Tharu (4%), Tamang (5%), Newari/Nepal Bhasa (3%), Magar (2%), Awadhi (2%), Rai (2.79%), Limbu (1%), and Bajjika (1%). The remaining 81 languages are each spoken as mother tongue by less than one percent of the population. Derived from Sanskrit, Nepali is considered the language closest to Sanskrit and is written in Devanagari script. Nepali was the language of the country's unifiers in the late 1700's and became the official, national language that serves as the lingua franca among Nepalese of different ethnolinguistic groups. Hindi -- along with regional dialects Awadhi, Bhojpuri and Maithili -- is spoken in the southern Terai Region. Hindi is also widely understood by Nepalese who have worked, studied or traveled in India. Many Nepali in government and business speak English as well. Other languages, particularly in the Inner Terai, hill and mountain regions are remnants of the country's pre-unification history of dozens of political entities isolated by mountains and gorges. These languages typically are limited to an area spanning about one day's walk. Beyond that distance dialects and languages lose mutual intelligibility.

  • Os nepaleses são descendentes de três grandes migrações da Índia, Tibete, norte da Birmânia e Yunnan, através de Assam. Entre os primeiros habitantes foram os Kirat na região leste, Newar do Vale de Katmandu e aborígenes Tharu na região sul do Terai. Os ancestrais das castas de Brahman e Chetri da Índia vieram de grupos presentes em Kumaon, Garhwal e Caxemira, enquanto que outros grupos étnicos tem as suas origens no norte da Birmânia, Yunnan e Tibete, por exemplo, o Gurung Magar, e no oeste, Rai e Limbu no leste, e Sherpa Bhotia no norte do país. No Terai, numa parte da Bacia do Ganges, 20% da área total do país, a população é fisicamente e culturalmente semelhante à do Indo-arianos do norte da Índia. Indo-Arianos e da Ásia Oriental misturaram-se com pessoas que vivem na região da colina. As altas montanhas são escassamente povoadas. O Vale de Katmandu, no meio da região da colina, constitui uma pequena fração da área da nação, mas é a mais densamente povoada, com quase 5% da população. Apesar da migração de uma parte significativa da população para as planícies do sul ou para o Terai nos últimos anos, a maioria da população ainda vive no Planalto Central. As montanhas do norte são pouco povoadas. Katmandu, com uma população de cerca de 800.000 habitantes, é a maior cidade do país. A maior religião é o Hinduísmo, com mais de 80% da população a seguir esta religião. O Nepal é um multilingue, multirreligioso e a sociedade é multiétnica.
