Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Grammar of the Kuvi Language: With Copious Examples
In J eypur the recognized language of the country now is Ooriya, but W. Francis' Gazetteer shows that 481 per mille speak Ooriya, and 206 per mille speak Kond. Coupling the above with the fact that Ooriya is an Aryan language and not Dravidian, the Author is warranted in deducing therefrom his belief that the original language of Jeypur and also of Kalahandi was Kond.
