Thaḷī is a dialect within the Lahnda group spoken in parts of the Pakistani provinces of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It is classified by some linguists as a northern dialect of Saraiki, although it has also been described as transitional between Multani and Shahpuri. Its name derives from the Thal Desert, in which it is spoken.
The vocabulary of Thali is similar to Shahpuri spoken to the east, but often the forms are closer to that of Multani.
Geographical distribution
As defined in the Linguistic Survey of India, the Thali dialect is spoken in parts of the Sindh Sagar Doab south of the Salt Range from Pind Dadan Khan tehsil in Jhelum district in the northeast to present Layyah district in the south, and is also spoken west of the Indus in Bannu, Dera Ismail Khan and Tank districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
In Dera Ismail Khan District, it goes by the name of "Ḍerāwāl" or "Derawali", and in Mianwali and Bannu districts it is known as "Hindko" or "Mulkī". Prior to Partition, this was the predominant dialect used by Hindus in Bannu district. A dialect of Thali spoken in the northeast is known as "Kacchī". Inhabitants of Dera Ismail Khan District, where this dialect is spoken, variously identify their language as Saraiki or Hindko. Likewise those living in Mianwali District primarily identify their language as Saraiki or Punjabi.
