request to add code for Azamgarhi variety #704

Closed quail4sale closed 3 years ago

quail4sale commented 3 years ago

Azamgarhi is spoken in the Azamgarh region (Azamgarh and Mau districts) and adjoining areas of Jaunpur district, Purvanchal Uttar Pradesh by Muslims. Alternate names include: Musalman Bhasa, Musalman Boli, Dehati, Bhaiya, Bhasha

Unfortunately, literature specific to Azamgarhi is very, very scarce. Here are two references to Azamgarhi I found:

Maaz Shaikh is is the process of finishing his M.Phil now, which will provide more information on this variety. Though the status of Azamgarhi as a language is under investigation still, we are requesting for the variety to be acknowledged with a Glottocode to be able to properly identify it for archiving. -Mary

Hi! The eastern reaches of Awadhi in comparison with other Awadhis has been covered by Saksena's Evolution of Awadhi which makes no special delimitation of Azamgar. Yet for whatever it's worth I've enriched the named lects of Awadhi for next Glottolog update including Azamgarhi (of Eastern Awadhi) whose glottocode will be azam1234. NB Amhad 1986 AFAICT is an extensive description of a Muslim lect of Awadhi in SW Azamgar.

Glottocode ended up being "azam1235": https://github.com/glottolog/glottolog/blob/master/languoids/tree/indo1319/clas1257/indo1320/indo1321/indo1322/subc1234/east2726/awad1245/awad1243/east2875/azam1235/md.ini
