The People?s Linguistic Survey of India provides an overview of the extant and dying languages of India, as perceived by their speakers. It is the culmination of a nation-wide survey of languages, documented by linguists, writers, social activists and, most importantly, members of different speech communities. The work chronicles the evolution of these languages until 2011, and incorporates their socio-political and cultural dimensions. Critically, it encapsulates the world view of the speakers of the languages. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands provide a unique canvas for studying its languages, both because of its indigenous peopling, and its immigrant demography. In this volume of the People's Linguistic Survey of India, the 21 languages of Andaman and Nicobar Islands are discussed in detail, their linguistic features are examined, and the number of speakers listed. Folktales, folk songs, origin myths and vocabulary lists are also provided. The languages included in this volume are classified in two sections: Section I: INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES? The Languages of the Andaman Islands, Great Andamanese, Jarawa, Onge, Sentinelese, The Languages of the Nicobar Islands, Nicobarese, Shompen Section II: IMMIGRANT LANGUAGES? Bangla, Bhattu or Bhantu, Burmese, Kannada, Karen, Tribal Languages from Chota Nagpur, Malayalam, Odia, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu and Other Languages.
