Hello! My name is Andy. How are you?
Let's talk about the Dogri language.

Dogri language:
Dogri is an Indo-European belonging to the Western Pahari branch of the Indo-Aryan language family. It is predominantly spoken in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly in regions such as Reasi, Udhampur, Kathua, Samba, Doda, Ramban and Jammu. It is also spoken in Sialkot district of Pakistani Punjab and Pathankot district of Indian Punjab. Dogri shares linguistic similarities with languages like Pahari-Pothwari, Kangri, Chambeali, Bilaspuri, and Punjabi. According to the 2011 Census of India, there are approximately 2.6 million native speakers of Dogri. It's one of the 22 scheduled languages of India. The language is considered endangered, as many members of the younger generation increasingly prefer to use English or Hindi over Dogri. The language was historically written using Takri script which is known as Dogri Akhar but now Devanagari script is used. Though there are efforts for revival of Dogra Akhar.

Dogra People and Culture:
The Dogras are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group primarily inhabiting the Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir, as well as parts of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab. They speak Dogri, an Indo-Aryan language recognized in the Eighth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. Dogras have a long history as soldiers in the armies of the erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir and in modern India. Culturally, folk songs like Paakh, Geetru, and Kud dance are central to celebrations. Their festivals include Lohri, Baisakhi, and Navratri. The Dogra cuisine includes dishes like Madhra, Ambal, Khatta meat, Aureya and Timru di chutney. Hindu sects like Shaktism and Shaivism are deeply embedded in their traditions.
