Documentation of Brahui Language as an Endangered Language

Abstract [en]

The group presented here is the Brahui people. Similar to other groups in this province, such as the Afro-Baloch and Jadgal, they are not aware of their origin. Some consider themselves separate from the Baloch and call themselves Brahui, and others just call themselves Balochi. However, the Baloch people consider them to be a separate ethnic group and call them Brahui. Similar to Baloch people, Brahui people are classified based on their own tribes. Brahui speakers are multilingual, typically speaking several or all of Persian/Sistani Persian, Balochi, and Brahui, and some are good at Pashto. Only their language distinguishes them from other groups in the region. They share the same traditions and customs with the Baloch people. The new generation does not speak Brahui; instead they have switched to either Balochi or Persian.
