Uttarakhand is also known as Dev Bhumi. It has been believed that thousands of God lived here. People kumaon have lot of faith on God. The most of area kumaon belongs to hills. On every peak & crest hill you will find tamples. Even there you exceptionally find the homes which don't have inside temple. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.21.16.78 (talk) 06:42, 27 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

In Nepal

edit

The article was recently edited to state that Kumaoini is also spoken in Nepal, with this as a source (the same webpage is also available at this site). Now, I don't think it's a reliable source and I'm not really keen on linking to it (the accompanying text makes some really odd claims). The information there may well be true, though the site doesn't really give any details as to how for example, the 99,400 figure for the speakers (as of 2000) has been arrived at (other than attributing it to the World Evangelization Research Center). And the figure doesn't tally with the census results (see the pdf p. 92 of this): they make no mention of Kumaoni and I don't see any language category there that could have conceivably subsumed such a population of Kumaoni speakers.

The whole matter appears to be tricky: take Gaige's 1975 Regionalism and national unity in Nepal (pp. 116–117), where the language of the whole of Baitadi and Dandeldhura districts is tentatively identified with Kumaoni. In fact, these varieties are nowadays counted among the dialects of Doteli, even though it may well be that they are intermediate between Doteli and Kumaoni.

Probably closer to the truth is the sociolinguistic survey of Doteli, which says (on p. 14) that "Kumaoni speakers reportedly live among the Dotyali speakers in west Nepal". That's probably the most reliable statement so far, and I'm planning to edit the article to reflect its content. Given its uncertainty, I don't think we should continue confidently claiming in the infobox that Kumoani is spoken in Nepal. – Uanfala (talk) 03:35, 15 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Takri is not verified to be used for Kumauni Language

edit

Removed reference for Takri being used for Kumauni. This is not a verified information. The Takri Unicode pdf mentions Takri for Kumauni but fails to provide any sample of Kumauni written in it. The self portrait of a Kumauni King has his name written in Takri, but that is not a proof for Takri's usage for Kumauni Language. Besides, Jaunsari Takri was also provided in the image, which is totally unrelated to Kumauni as an language. This edit has been reverted back again & again, other editors may take a note of this.
