Kumaoni (कुमाऊँनी;
pronounced[kuːmɑːʊni]) is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by over two million people of the Kumaon region of the state of Uttarakhand in northern India and parts of Doti region in Western Nepal.[1] As per 1961 survey there were 1,030,254 Kumaoni speakers in India.[4] The number of speakers increased to 2.2 million in 2011.
Kumaoni is not endangered but UNESCO's Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger designates it as a language in the unsafe category, meaning it requires consistent conservation efforts.[5]
Wiktionary has a category on Kumaoni language.
