Why Does Marathi Sound So Unique?

On the eve of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti, we do a deep dive into the mysteriously beautiful language Marathi and try to understand what gives this language such a unique flavour when compared to other Indian languages? What are the unique cultural aspects of Marathi? We explore it all in this video.

[@suvarna76]

Very poor research. The entire analysis seems to be based on the myth called Aryan Invasion theory (or Aryan migration theory) which has been proven to be wrong by many scientists from different fields. While counting vowels and consonants, they simply ignore the vowel अ so imposing an unscientific method on Indian scripts which are highly scientific. The letter ळ is found in all Indian languages except Hindi and Bengali. Also Sanskrit has the word छुरिका which they seem to have missed.

[@HistoryBuff_0]

@@wotermelon_ No there isn't. There are very few Indians here (comparative to the UK or the US), let alone Marathis. Growing up I had no Marathi friends and only a handful of Indians ones from all over like Gujju, Malyali, Kannada and Bengali. Anyways outside India people from different states don't really care about the difference and identify as Indian together. You have to absolutely be able to speak French to get around and do the most basic things. Culture-wise my parents say that it's very very different (I haven't experienced everyday life in India firsthand, so can't say). But the main thing is that people here aren't racist at all (mostly!) towards Indians compared to what you'd get in the UK or the US (I know these places don't have head-on proper discrimination, I'm talking about racial micro-aggressions and general attitude) Cannot emphasize enough on being able to speak French. I hope you do proper research before coming here.

Also 19:40 Marathi does use the respectful form for you - 'तुम्ही' You can't use 'तू' for elder people. It's highly disrespectful

[@sumukhbhanushali95]

"dolyanni jara nit bagha, haa desh attaa, kiti baddalla" You're right, Dola is singular, dole is plural but, dolya is also plural but when it is referred to as subject, I guess. Not a linguist. just a Marathi speaker. Don't know how to explain but I know we use "dolya" sometimes.

[@sumukhbhanushali95]

@@JK-no1fr yeah true

[@rujutaorpe5522]

Singular is डोळा and plural is डोळे. If the words डोळा and डोळे are modified by using a vibhakti pratyay or preposition, then their root form changes. These new root forms don't exist on their own. Singular becomes डोळ्या(). Examples are डोळ्यात (in the eye), डोळ्यासमोर (in front of the eye), डोळ्याला (to the eye) etc. While plural becomes डोळ्यां(). Examples are डोळ्यांत (in the eyes), डोळ्यांसमोर (in front of the eyes), डोळ्यांना (to the eyes) etc.

[@PristinePerceptions]

The "respectful" form of the word differs by place and family. For example, in most parts of Maharashtra, "तू" is used to refer to all female relatives regardless of age. However elder male relatives are generally always referred to by the respectful form, "तुम्ही". Of course you can use the respectful form to refer to women too. It just isn't used by default for elder female relatives. Guess our patriarchy is obvious. However, I have seen "तू" being used more and more frequently in the cities to refer to elder male relatives, like "बाबा, तू कसा आहेस?". I wouldn't dream of saying "तू" to my father, lol.

[@Anonymous-pj1xk]

The language of the Movie Sairaat is a village dialect of one of the Southern region of the Maharashtra, Solapur district. I am surprised you understood the difficult dialect and the accent. Standard version of Marathi (Shuddha Marathi) spoken by Upper Casts Marathi including Marathi Brahmins, is more closer to standard Hindi, with lots of Sanskrit words, Std Marathi is a gentle , simple and sober, speakers have different accent. You can try sentences on Google Translator.

[@Anonymous-pj1xk]

​@@SoulfoUniverse I am not a Marathi speaker but in contact with Marathi Speakers. I can speak Marathi which may not be of high level or fluently but it is good enough. I did not say Marathi is lexically and grammatically similar to Hindi. Since there are many common Sanskrit tatsam words and even Urdu words are common in both and many Verbs are similar or with some differences and some are different. I have noticed non- Marathi speakers like Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati and others can understand Marathi, if they are interested in learning and in contact with Marathi speakers for enough time, even they can pick up grammar and words and talk simple Marathi. Those who are not interested or not in a contact and willing to learn are out of question. There are many examples I know Non Marathi speakers, picked up Marathi very fast. Even from this video comments, one Bengali person from Bengal, understood the Marathi Movie named "Sairat' which was in some village dialect of Marathi Which I could not understand well, I was surprised. I know the Hindi was originated from Shaurseni Prakrit evolved through Khari Boli and Marathi from Maharastri Prakrit and evolved through Old Marathi over 1000s of years.

They are published just a week before Diwali and many Maharashtrian families would buy them and on the day of Narak Chaturdashi and Lakshmi puja, Marathi folks would read it after the morning bath.

We have less kannada and tulu influence than goan has marathi influence. we also have more vowels, more complex grammar and almost the same number of speakers.

Yes that's definitely one of the most interesting things about Marathi ngl. They use some Hebrew words for religious terms and for some reason there is some Urdu influence as well (more than standard Marathi I mean). But other than that it's mostly the same as other dialects from the Konkan region. However I think their present generation in Israel no longer speaks it fluently.

Official languages are rarely the popular languages. For that matter Persian was the official language in most parts of the country and Sanskrit before that. But they never changed the fact that people spoke so many different dialects of so many different languages. As they said, kos kos ko paani aur chaar kos ko baani. However, it is true that official languages did influence words. For instance under Chhatrapati Shivaji, the commander was called sar-i-naubat and not senapati. Similarly you'll find many words of many languages in every language of the world. Language and culture has always been and shall always remain a canvas with multiple influences throughout its length and breadth. Contemporary prejudices may make one yearn for "pure" versions of the same (of some imagined past), but the fact remains that its diversity itself is its purity, its luminosity and its greatest inheritance 😊😊.
