Talk:Balochi dialects

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)Reply

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)Reply

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)Reply
