It is the outcome of a nationwide survey of languages that has been documented by linguists, writers, social activists, and members of different speech communities. This volume documents the variety of languages prevalent in the state of Manipur, so as to preserve them in this globalised world, where migration and other factors are resulting in loss of languages. Critically, the book encapsulates the world view of the speakers of the discussed languages. This book also attempts to showcase diversity in languages spoken in the state by contextualising the language wealth in its social ecology. The majority of the languages spoken in the state belong to the Tibeto-Burman language family. The Austro-Asiatic, Dravidian and Indo-Aryan language families also find representation in the state.
