Eastern Magar is a variety of the
Tibeto-Burman language
Magar which belongs to the
Sino-Tibetan language family. It is spoken by the Eastern Magar people who inhabit
Nepal and
India including in various districts and towns in
Bagmati Province, and
Koshi Province as well as the state of
Sikkim in India, and is also spoken in
Bhutan. Phonologically, it includes a range of consonants and vowels, with specific tonal features that contribute to its distinct sound patterns.[1][2][3]
Eastern Magar typically follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) structure, where the subject is followed by the object and then the verb. This is a common feature in many
Tibeto-Burman languages.[3][5]
Ethnologue reports that the variety of Eastern Magar spoken in the
Eastern Development Region of Nepal differs from the variety spoken west of
Kathmandu and that intelligibility between the three main dialects of Eastern Magar differ.[1][6]
