About: Bazigar language

An Entity of Type: language, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

The Bazigar, Goaar, or Guar, language is spoken by the Bazigar ethnic group of north-western India who are found primarily in Punjab, but also in Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Chandigarh, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Rajasthan. It is apparently an Indo-Aryan language, even though Ethnologue classifies it as Dravidian, and Glottolog has labelled it "unclassifiable". Schreffler argues that it compares well with the Western Rajasthani dialects as well as with Punjabi (with which it is not mutually intelligible), while Deb notes its resemblance to Bagri.
