Northern Dialects?
[edit]I can't find a source which states a Northern dialect branch of Balochi. We need to source any dialect divisions please. Azalea pomp (talk) 20:22, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
What does this section have to do with dialects?
[edit]Balochi Dialects by population, region, religion, and languages estimated by the government of Pakistan in 1998.[1]
| Group | Region(s) | Religion(s) | Languages | Population |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Northern Baloch | Pakistan Iran Afghanistan | Sunni | Northern Balochi | Unknown |
| Southern Baloch | Pakistan Iran Oman UAE | Islam (predominantly) majority Sunni and minority Zikri | Southern Balochi | 4 Million |
| Western Baloch | Pakistan Iran Afghanistan Turkmenistan | Islam (predominantly) majority Sunni and minority Shia | Western Balochi | 2.8 Million |
| Eastern Baloch | Pakistan | Sunni | Eastern Balochi | 6 Million |
We need to keep the article about the Balochi dialects and this information really has nothing to do with dialects. Azalea pomp (talk) 20:25, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
I will be adding more info
[edit]I will be adding more info such as geographic locations and dialect forms, etc. Anyone else feel free to add such info as long as you have academic material to back up claims. Azalea pomp (talk) 20:40, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
