PANJABI (properly PANJABI')

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 679 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PANJABI (properly PANJABI') , the language of the Central Punjab (properly Panjab). It is spoken by over 71,000,000
people
  between (approximately speaking) the 77th and 74th degrees of
east
  longitude. The vernacular of this
tract
  was originally an old form of the
modern
 
Lahnda
 , a member of the outer
group
  of Indo-Aryan
languages
  (q.v.), but it has been overlaid by the expansion of the midland Sauraseni
Prakrit
  (see
PRAKRIT
 ) to its
east
 , and now belongs to the intermediate
group
 , possessing most of the characteristics of the midland language, with occasional traces of the old outer basis which become more and more prominent as we go westwards. At the 74th degree of east longitude we find it merging into the
modern
 
Lahnda
 . The language is fully described in the
article
