Appendix talk:Kashmiri word list
Add topic@Imranqazi90 Hi! Great to see a Kashmiri contributor. Would you like to help add the words to this page from [1] this list from Koul's Kashmiri grammar? —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 22:44, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
@AryamanA Hi! Sure I will add the words. It's my pleasure. Best regards Imranqazi90 (talk) 23:12, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
@AryamanA I will also add some more words besides Koul's Kashmiri Grammar which are from the Kashmiri Monolingual Dictionary from JK Academy Of Arts, Culture and Languages. Imranqazi90 (talk) 23:19, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Imranqazi90: Awesome! I can help make entries and provide etymologies etc. since I am familiar with Indo-Aryan languages. Also, feel free to add problematic examples to Module:ks-Arab-translit/testcases so I can improve the transliteration code. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 23:48, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
@AryamanA That's fantastic ! I will definitely keep it in mind and rely upon your help. I will check soon into the problematic examples. I have made some changes in the words' list you gave as unfortunately Koul's grammar book contains at times some mistakes in meaning. For some specific words, I rely upon the Kashmiri monolingual dictionary done by JK Academy of Arts, Culture and Languages. It's the most authentic dictionary we ever have in Kashmiri. I also rely upon one famous kashmiri forester named Nazir Malik who was working in Dachigam National Park. He released recently a very nice video of kashmiri names for birds : https://www.facebook.com/discoverkashmir1/videos/564485197529405/. I rely to a lesser extent upon the book called " Breeding birds in Kashmir by R.S.P. Bates and E.H.N. Lowther : https://archive.org/details/KashmirBirds/Kashmir%20Birds/mode/2up . There is also this book called "Birds of Kashmir" by Samsar Chand Kaul but it can't be relied 100% as it contains errors at times : https://archive.org/details/birdsofkashmir/mode/2up . I have removed the word eagle so far as the word used in kashmiri was for black kite. When I come accross the real word for eagle, I will add it. Imranqazi90 (talk) 02:25, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
