'''Marwari''' ({{lang|mwr-Deva|मारवाड़ी}}, {{lang|mwr-Arab|مارواڑی}}, {{Transliteration|mwr|Mārwāṛī}}){{efn|also rendered as ''Marwadi'' or ''Marvadi''}} is a [[Western Indo-Aryan languages|Western Indo-Aryan language]] belonging to the [[Indo-Iranian languages|Indo-Iranian]] subdivision of the [[Indo-European]] languages. Marwari and its closely related varieties like [[Dhundhari language|Dhundhari]], [[Shekhawati language|Shekhawati]] and [[Mewari language|Mewari]] form a part of the broader Rajasthani language family. It is spoken in the Indian state of [[Rajasthan]], as well as the neighbouring states of [[Gujarat]] and [[Haryana]], some adjacent areas in eastern parts of [[Pakistan]], and some migrant communities in [[Nepal]].<ref>{{Cite book |last=Frawley |first=William J. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=6ftQEAAAQBAJ&dq=%22marwari+language%22+%22gujarat%22&pg=PA294 |title=International Encyclopedia of Linguistics |date=2003-05-01 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-977178-3 |language=en |quote="Marwari : also called Rajasthani, Merwari, Marvari. 12,963,000 speakers in India and Nepal.

Marwari is popularly written in [[Devanagari]] script, as are many languages of [[India]] and [[Nepal]], including [[Hindi]], [[Marathi language|Marathi]], [[Nepali language|Nepali]], and [[Sanskrit]]; although it was historically written in [[Mahajani]], it is still written in the [[Perso-Arabic script]] by the Marwari minority in Eastern parts of [[Pakistan]] (the standard/western [[Naskh (script)|Naskh]] script variant is used in [[Sindh Province]], and the eastern [[Nastaʿlīq|Nastalik]] variant is used in [[Punjab, Pakistan|Punjab Province]]), where it has educational status but where it is rapidly shifting to [[Urdu]].<ref name="ethnologue-mve">{{cite web |title=Pakistani Marwari |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/mve |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref>

Marwari has no official status in India and is not used as a language of education. Marwari is still spoken widely in [[Jodhpur district|Jodhpur]], [[Pali district|Pali]], [[Jaisalmer]], [[Barmer district|Barmer]], [[Nagaur]], and [[Bikaner]].

== History ==
It is believed that Marwari and [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]] evolved from ''[[Old Western Rājasthāni|Old Western Rajasthani]]'' or ''[[Dingal]]''.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Mayaram |first=Shail |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=FP_MWtoPIcoC |title=Against History, Against State |date=2006 |publisher=Permanent Black |isbn=978-81-7824-152-4 |pages=43 |language=en |quote=The lok gathā (literally, folk narrative) was a highly developed tradition in the Indian subcontinent, especially after the twelfth century, and was simultaneous with the growth of apabhransa, the literary languages of India that derived from Sanskrit and the Prakrits. This developed into the desa bhāṣā, or popular languages, such as Old Western Rajasthani (OWR) or Marubhasa, Bengali, Gujarati, and so on. The traditional language of Rajasthani bards is Dingal (from ding, or arrogance), a literary and archaic form of old Marwari. It was replaced by the more popular Rajasthani (which Grierson calls old Gujarati) that detached itself from western apabhransa about the thirteenth century. This language was the first of all the bhasas of northern India to possess a literature. The Dingal of the Rajasthani bards is the literary form of that language and the ancestor of the contemporary Marvari and Gujarati.}}</ref> Formal grammar of Gurjar Apabhraṃśa was written by [[Jain]] monk and [[Gujarati people|Gujarati]] scholar [[Acharya Hemachandra|Hemachandra Suri]].{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}

== Geographical distribution ==
Marwari is primarily spoken in the Indian state of [[Rajasthan]]. Marwari speakers have dispersed widely throughout India and other countries but are found most notably in the neighbouring state of [[Gujarat]] and in Eastern [[Pakistan]]. Speakers are also found in [[Bhopal]]. With around 7.9 million speakers in India according to the 2001 census.<ref>{{cite web |title=Census of India Website : Office of the Registrar General & Census Commissioner, India |url=http://censusindia.gov.in |website=censusindia.gov.in}}</ref>

== Lexis ==
Indian Marwari [rwr] in Rajasthan shares a 50%–65% lexical similarity with Hindi (this is based on a [[Swadesh list|Swadesh 210 word list]] comparison). It has many [[cognate]] words with Hindi.  Notable phonetic correspondences include /s/ in Hindi with /h/ in Marwari. For example, /sona/ 'gold' (Hindi) and /hono/ 'gold' (Marwari).

Pakistani Marwari [mve] shares 87% [[lexical similarity]] between its Southern subdialects in Sindh (Utradi, Jaxorati, and Larecha) and Northern subdialects in Punjab (Uganyo, Bhattipo, and Khadali), 79%–83% with [[Dhatki language|Dhakti]] [mki], and 78% with Meghwar and Bhat Marwari dialects. Mutual intelligibility of Pakistani Marwari [mve] with Indian Marwari [rwr] is decreasing due to the rapid shift of active speakers in Pakistan to [[Urdu]], their use of the [[Arabic script]] and different sources of support medias, and their separation from Indian Marwaris, even if there are some educational efforts to keep it active (but absence of official recognition by Pakistani or provincial government level). Many words have been borrowed from other Pakistani languages.<ref name="ethnologue-mve"/>

Merwari [wry] shares 82%–97% intelligibility of Pakistani Marwari [mve], with 60%–73% lexical similarity between Merwari varieties in Ajmer and Nagaur districts, but only 58%–80% with Shekhawati [swv], 49%–74% with Indian Marwari [rwr], 44%–70% with Godwari [gdx], 54%–72% with Mewari [mtr], 62%–70% with Dhundari [dhd], 57%–67% with Haroti [hoj]. Unlike Pakistani Marwari [mve], the use of Merwari remains vigorous, even if its most educated speakers also proficiently speak [[Hindi]] [hin].<ref name="ethnologue-wry">{{cite web|title=Merwari|url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/wry|website=Ethnologue|access-date=4 September 2019|language=en}}</ref>

== Morphology ==
Marwari languages have a structure that is quite similar to Hindustani (Hindi or Urdu).{{citation needed|date=September 2019}} Their primary word order is [[subject–object–verb]]<ref name="ethnologue-rwr">{{cite web |title=Indian Marwari |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/rwr |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="ethnologue-dhd">{{cite web |title=Dhundari |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/rwr |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="ethnologue-swv">{{cite web |title=Shekhawati |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/rwr |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="ethnologue-mtr">{{cite web |title=Mewari |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/wry |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="ethnologue-hoj">{{cite web |title=Haroti |url=https://www.ethnologue.com/language/hoj |website=Ethnologue |access-date=4 September 2019 |language=en}}</ref> Most of the pronouns and interrogatives used in Marwari are distinct from those used in Hindi; at least Marwari proper and [[Harauti language|Harauti]] have a [[clusivity]] distinction in their plural pronouns.{{citation needed|date=September 2019}}

== Vocabulary ==
{{Unreferenced section|date=July 2020}}
Marwari vocabulary is somewhat similar to other Western Indo-Aryan languages, especially [[Rajasthani language|Rajasthani]] and [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]], however, elements of grammar and basic terminology differ enough to significantly impede mutual intelligibility.

== Writing system ==
Marwari is generally written in the Devanagari script, although the [[Mahajani]] script is traditionally associated with the language. In Pakistan it is written in the [[Perso-Arabic script]] with modifications. Historical Marwari [[orthography]] for Devanagari uses other characters in place of standard Devanagari letters.<ref name="Pandey">{{cite web|last=Pandey|first=Anshuman|date=23 May 2011|url=https://www.unicode.org/wg2/docs/n3970.pdf|title=Proposal to Encode the Marwari Letter DDA for Devanagari|access-date=6 January 2021}}</ref>
