  • Asuri is an Austroasiatic language spoken by the Asur people, part of the Munda branch.Asuri has many Dravidian loanwords due to contact with Kurukh. The majority of Asuri speakers reside in the Gumla district of Chota Nagpur. In addition, there are smaller groups of Asuri speakers in Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, Odisha. Ethnologue states that Birjia is a dialect of Asuri, but also that there is a related language Birjia; it is not clear if these refer to the same thing. However, Anderson (2008:195), based on Prasad (1961:314), suggests that Birjia (Binjhia) may be an Indo-Aryan language, although the Birjia are an ethnic subgroup of the Asuri tribe, along with the Asur proper and the Agariya. Majhwar is unclassified, but based on location and other clues, it may turn out to be a dialect of Asuri. If so, its 35,000 speakers (reported in 1995, out of an ethnic group of 175,000) would make it the most populous form of Asuri. Asuri is considered to be an endangered language. One important reason for its distinction as endangered is due to a lack of any written form of the language. It exists only as a spoken language There are a total of 31 phonemes in Asuri, made up of twenty-six "segmental" and five "supra-segmental" phonemes. Of the former, there are twenty-one consonants and five vowels. The Asur language is listed in UNESCO Interactive Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger. Using mobile radio, the Asur community, a Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group(PVTG) in Jharkhand, has been spreading the popularity of the language within their geographical limits. News and entertainment programmes are broadcast on speakers at public places. (en)
  • 阿苏尔语是说的一种南亚语系语言。阿苏尔语有很多与库鲁克语接触借入的达罗毗荼语系词汇。 大多数阿苏尔语是一种生活在根拉县。另外恰蒂斯加尔邦、西孟加拉邦、奥里萨邦也有少量使用者。 《民族语》认为比尔贾是阿苏尔语一种方言,但也有一种相关语言就叫比尔贾语;目前还不清楚它们是否指的是同一种东西。然而Anderson(2008:195)基于Prasad(1961:314)指出比尔贾语可能是一种印度-伊朗语族语言,尽管比尔贾人是阿苏里部落的一个亚群,与阿苏尔族和阿加利亚族一样。 未分类的马吉瓦尔语有可能是阿苏尔语一种方言,若果真如此,那它的3.5万使用者(1995,民族人口17.5万)将使它成为使用人数最多的阿苏尔语方言。 阿苏尔语是一种濒危语言。被列为濒危语言的一个重要原因是该语言没有任何书面形式。阿苏尔语有31个音素,由26个“音段”音素和5个“超音段音素”构成。前者由21个辅音和5个元音构成。 (zh)
