Thaḷī is a Western Punjabi dialect spoken in parts of the Pakistani provinces of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Its classification by some linguists as a northern dialect of Saraiki is disputed, and it has been described as transitional between Multani and Shahpuri Punjabi. Its name derives from the Thal Desert.

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". A dialect of Thali spoken in the northeast is known as "Kacchī". Inhabitants of Dera Ismail Khan District, presumably speakers of this dialect, variously identify their language as Saraiki or Hindko. Likewise those living in Mianwali District identify their language as Punjabi or Saraiki.
