.INTRODUCTION.
This Text book of the Balochi language lias been compilecl at the desire of the 'overnment of the Punjab to meet tho want which has hitherto existed of a Text-book for examination in Balochi.
<

Owing to the fact that there were no books already existing ''n Balochi from which a compilation could be made, all the materials had to be obtained Tlik, however, will prodirectly from the viva voce narratives of the people. of a the as to add the value work be considered to specimen of the actual bably the There in of is Balochi no literary dialect as spoken language present day. The pedantry, which is the curse of alinost all distinct from a popular dialect. Oriental composition, is entirely wanting, and every word may be relied on as actually in use among illiterate men. The only exception to this rule occurs in the poems, which, although never re.luced to writing by the Baloches themsolves, have in some cases been tra^l if ionally handed down for many generations, and preserve a certain number of archaic and sometimes, no doubt, corrupt Some antiquated forms, which are no longer used in modern expressions. are still speech, kept up in poetical composition, even of recent origin. There
thus a kind of conventional poetical dialect. But, with this exception, the as of the is that language employed present day spoken among the tri^>es of the Lower Derajat and the adjacent hills.
is

Two distinct dialects are used, namely, that of the Legharis and northern that of the Mazaris and southern tribes the 1-atter differing so and tribes, from that in use among the Maris and Bugtis (including the slightly the tribes of Kachhi, and those in the neighbourhood of the Bolan Shambanis), to be One of the few points of difference as Pass, practically the same dialect. which will be noted is that the Mazaris, Maris, and Bugtis use thi in the sense of other, while the Kachhi and Bolan tribes use phit^i.

or Leghari dialect differs chiefly from the southern by the ' ' terminations being less full and distinct. The plural ending ant grammatical ' ' is nasalized in to becomes en or an and nw '. The final th of (he 3rd 2nd of of the the the Aorist, pers. plur pers. sing, Imperative, &c., is often lost ' ' da being used for datlj, khane for ' khaneth, ' ' ravapha for ravaghath, &c.

also the common transposition in certain past participles of * tk ' ' ' atka for ' akhta,' ' sutka for sut^ta.' This also is prevalent in
'

Mekrani Balochi. Although common in the northern dialect, it is by no means universal and I have not used it in the text, in order to preserve uniformity in
spelling.

Besides these merely dialectical differenoas the dialect of the Legharis and adjacent tribes must be consiflered more corrupt thin the southern dialect. It has borrowed a greater number of words froji the neighbouring Multani or Jatki language, and it seems probable that its grammatical structure has felt the same influence. On the other hand, the dialects of Kachhi and the Mari Lave been affected more by Sindhi and Brahoi.

In this Text-book the parts in the Leghari or northern dialect are Part 1. The remainder Stories 14, 10, 15, 19, 21, 22, 24, 26, 28, and 33 of in the southern dialect. Of the of Part I and the wholi of Part II are

BALOCHI GRAMMAR.
THE ALPHABET.
It is only within the Balochi can hardly be called a written language. few years that Balochis have begun to write it, Persian being the ordinary medium of written communication and the Balochis considering their language to be merely a colloquial form of Persian. lu writing uniformity of spelling is little attended to. In this Text-book the Roman character is used, as it is better adapted to express the sounds of the language than the Persian, especially the vowels, which it is difficult to represent with certainty and accuracy in the Persian character. It will, however, be advisable for the student to make himself acquainted with the representation of Balochi words in Persian character, as the latter is the only mode of writing with which the Balochis are acquainted. The following table shows the correspondence between the Persian and Roman

Passive Voice,
Transitive verbs have a passive voice, wbich is, however, not very extensively used. The infinitive is formed by adding ij to tbe verbal biise. From this base an aorist is formed by the addition of the ordinary aorist terminations as in the active. The past participle of the active has also a passive sigaification. and from this is formed (1) a present correspoading ia form to the active perfect, and an alternative form made by substituting iy for agh, as, I struck, with the Jathaghaii or jatLiiyan (2i an imperfect, which similarly
