Waneci, also called Tareeno or Chalgari, is a Pashto dialect which is spoken by a small population of Tareen tribes in Pakistan
and Afghanistan, primarily in Harnai and Sinjawi area east of Quetta, northern Balochistan. The prevailing view of modern
scholars is that Waneci may be considered a separate language from modern Pashto, which branched off in the early Middle Iranic
stage before some of the characteristics of Pashto had been fully developed. Prods Oktor Skjærvø states:The Pashto area split
into two dialect groups at a pre-literary period, represented today on the one hand by all the dialects of modern Pashto and
on the other by Waneci and by archaic remains in other southeast dialects. Now Waneci is getting more and more influenced
by standard Pashto. There are also dialectal divisions within Waneci, although the variation between them is very small. |
