Notes on the Phonetics of the Gilgit Dialect of Shina

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

The publication of vol. viii, pt. ii of Sir George Grierson's monumental work, The Linguistic Survey of India, which contains a section on the Shina () language, and the appearance of a short but valuable critique of it by Dr. the Rev. T. Grahame Bailey in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of July, 1921, are immediately responsible for the present essay on Shina phonetics.

1 The affinities of the sounds of Shina have, I do not doubt, been dealt with by Sir George Grierson, with his unrivalled learning, in his Pisāca Languages of N. W. India. Unfortunately, my copy of that valuable work is in Ireland, or at least is reported “missing” in that inauspicious country.
