The Purgi and Shina languages are spoken in parts of India and Pakistan. Purgi, also called Purik, is a Tibetic language, while Shina is an Indo-Aryan language. This video was recorded by Wikitongues community members Anwar (right - speaking Purik/Purgi), Tufail (left - speaking Shina), and Nicholas Biniaz-Harris.
More from Wikipedia: Purgi (alternative spellings: Purgi or Puriki) is a Tibetic language spoken by the Purikpa in parts of the Indian union territory of Ladakh and neighboring regions of Pakistan's Gilgit-Baltistan territory. The Purikpa live south of the Balti in Ladakh. Most of them live in Ladakh and Baltistan, especially in Kargil although significant numbers reside in Leh. Many Purikpa are also present in China. Because they inhabit the higher reaches of the arid Himalayas, they depend on glacial runoff for irrigation of their crops. Barley, wheat, and millet are grown where water is sufficient, especially along small rivers. The hot summer temperatures also allow for a wide variety of fruits to be raised. Unlike the Dards and the Shina, the Purikpa are not nomads. They transfer their livestock from one grazing ground to another upon the arrival of autumn. During the summer months, they drive the cattle to alpine pastures. All households own at least one female dzo, which is a cross between a cow and a yak. That animal produces milk. Most of them are Shia Muslims by religion although significant Sunni Muslims and a small minority of Buddhists and Bön followers reside in areas like Fokar valley, Mulbekh, Wakha. Like the Balti, they speak an archaic Tibetan dialect closely related to Balti and Ladakhi, but they are not easily intelligible with each other., Shina (ݜݨیاٗ = ݜݨیاٗ = Šiṇyaá) is a language from the Dardic sub-group of the Indo-Aryan family spoken by the Shina people, a plurality of the people in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan and a number of people in Ladakh, India (Dah Hanu, Dras), as well as in pockets in Jammu and Kashmir, India, such as in Gurez. Until recently, there was no writing system of the language. A number of schemes have been proposed and there is no single writing system used by all of the speakers of the Shina language.

Amazing upload tyvm. I'm not a language purist by any means but the massive amount of loanwords kind of ruined the experience of listening to such a rare language like Purgi a little. I felt like I knew every other word. Still very interesting! Glad to see this channel is still alive and well!

I think that might be becuase he's talking about linguistic stuff, which led him to use "language" and "sino-tibetan" a lot. I have a suspicion that if he was to talk about something else it wouldn't be so "loanword heavy", unless you meant some other loanwords I didn't catch

Wow, as someone who speaks Tibetan, Hindi (which has many Persian loan words, which also find their way into Purgi), and Hebrew (a Semitic language like Arabic, which also has influenced Purgi), it is interesting how much of Purgi I can understand.

For information of curious people ladakh has a population of about 3 lakh(300 thousand) and Shina or Dardic speakers comprise only about 20000 thousand which is around 6-7% in ladakh there are two districts one Leh and other Kargil and has almost equal population. Shina speakers are mostly found in Kargil district and very less in Leh district even in kargil district shina speakers make up only around 10% of the population. Of the more than half a dozens Tehsils of kargil only one that is Drass has a Shina majority rest of the Tehsils including Kargil city proper has 0% of shina speakers almost 95-99% of shina speakers in kargil are found in Drass Tehsil rest of kargil is purely Balti-Purgi speaking which is a dialect of Tibetan..

@@AhsanQli-u6gTotally wrong, in valley kashmiri is an ethnicity, we call ourselves kaeshir ( plural) , koshur (singular person) and our language as koshur. It doesn't matter if non kashmiris claim to be kashmiri but truth is that kashmiri is an ethnic group who are natives of kashmir valley (kasheer) . We still speak koshur and follow particular culture and tradition. Claiming that kashmiri is not an ethnic group is same like if non shina people outside of dardistan who can't even speak shina will claim to be shina, it doesn't mean shina will no more remain an ethnic group...
