Introduction The Gondi language of Adilabad District, Andhra Pradesh, India, is spoken by more than 2,00,000 people. The

Gonds, who call themselves Koytur and refer to their language as Koyang, have a rich cultural and linguistic heritage. Despite the high level of lexical borrowing from state-recognized languages such as Hindi, Marathi and Telugu, one can clearly see that Gondi is a distinct language with its own phonological patterns and grammatical structures.

A unique feature of this phrase book is that the phrases are presented in several languages with each written in

three scripts. This will enable learners to learn other languages and scripts through whichever language and script they are most comfortable. An additional use for this book is for literate Gonds who wish to learn how to read and speak one of the other four languages presented (Telugu, English, Hindi or Kolami).

Due to the complexities of language it is often difficult to obtain an exact word-for-word match when translating

phrases, so we have attempted to communicate the same meaning in each language, even whilst using different words. There may be ways of improving our attempts, and hence we welcome constructive criticism in order to enhance the next edition.

Our prayer and hope is that this Gondi Language Phrase Book will assist all those who are genuinely concerned

with preserving and developing the Gondi language and culture, and that these activities will go hand in hand with development and modernisation within the region.

Foreword

FOREWORD

The Gonds of Adilabad are inheritors of a splendidly rich cultural heritage. Language plays a vital role in preserving the cultural heritage for posterity. The Adilabad variety of the Gondi language is spoken by nearly 2 lakh Gonds. Though there is no official Gondi script as such, various attempts are underway to revive one of the native Gondi scripts. Meanwhile, Gondi may be written in a variety of existing official scripts as demonstrated in this phrase book. In order to further develop and enrich the language, a Gondi Language Phrase Book has been a long felt need. The present work has been a commendable effort to address this need. This Gondi Language Phrase Book is very useful for learners of Gondi in helping them understand and address the Gonds problems easily. In addition it is useful to students who already know Gondi and are learning Telugu, Hindi, English, or Kolami. They may access each language in whichever script they prefer. It is encouraging to see that this second edition incorporates many more useful phrases, some basic conversations, and grammatical drills to aid students as they embark on a journey of learning. I heartily congratulate the compilers on their meticulous work and hope that it would be of immense use to the Gonds as well as other connoisseurs of Gondi.

English: These sounds are not native to Gondi, but are found in some borrowed words from Indo-Aryan languages such as Marathi and Hindi (and Sanskrit). Many of these sounds are not found in English either. Aspirated consonants (kh, gh, ch, jh, h, h, th, dh, ph, bh) are said with emphasis almost as if the h is pronounced.
