Saraiki dialect
Saraiki (Shahmukhi: ), is the southern dialect of Western Punjabi of the Indo-Aryan language family. It is spoken by 20 million people (2013) across the South Punjab, southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and border regions of North Sindh and Eastern Balochistan, with some 70,000 migrants and their descendants in India, who migrated as a result of the partition of British India, as well as overseas, especially in the Middle East. Saraiki is also spoken by some Hindus in Afghanistan, though the number there is unknown.
