Bhojpuri

Resumen

Bhojpuri is a prominent Indo-European language with around 33 million native speakers in India, Nepal, and Mauritius. Written in the Devanagari script, it follows an abugida system and is characterized by its agglutinative morphology, four grammatical cases, and a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order. Bhojpuri serves as a cultural touchstone for communities, especially in India's northern states, with significant diaspora presence globally, particularly in Mauritius and the Caribbean.
