The Bahing are a subset of the Indigenous Kirant ethnic group, which is located widely in Okhaldhunga and Solukhumbu District. These people are mubmers of 6547 population (2021 census) They can be found in some of the villages like Bulaadi, Chisopani, Moli, Pankhu, Bhadaure, Aapsowra, Rangadeep, Bigutar, Mamkha, Narayasthan, Baruneshowe, Ratmate, Waksa, Lekh Kharka of the Okhaldhunga District , and Nechabatase, Salyan of Solukhumbu & in some other districts of eastern Nepal .
11-484: Their language, also named " Bahing lo, Pai lo, Radu lo, Wai lo, Procha Lo ", belongs to the family of Kiranti languages , a subgroup of Tibeto-Burman . They have two main festivals: Hong and Susu. The Bahing also worship Nature. The Central Bureau of Statistics of Nepal classifies the Bahing as a subgroup within the broader social group of Mountain/Hill Janajati. At the time of the 2011 Nepal census , 3,096 people (0.0% of
22-662: A Khambu subgroup that consists of three languages, Kulung , Nachiring , and Sampang . Camling may also be a Khambu language. Sound changes defining each subgroup (Gerber & Grollmann 2018): Independent branches (formerly part of "Western Kiranti") that are unclassified within Trans-Himalayan (Sino-Tibetan): The Khambu branch is defined by the following sound changes. Research on proto-Kiranti includes work on phonology and comparative morphology by George van Driem , reconstructions by Michailovsky (1991) and Sergei Starostin 1994. Michailovsky and Starostin differ by
33-580: A coherent group, but rather a paraphyletic one due to lack of shared innovations . Gerber & Grollmann (2018) presented additional evidence supporting the paraphyletic nature of Kiranti. A Central-Eastern Kiranti group is considered to be valid by Gerber & Grollmann (2018), but they consider "Western Kiranti" unclassified within Trans-Himalayan languages . Independent branches (formerly part of "Western Kiranti") that are unclassified within Trans-Himalayan (Sino-Tibetan): Grollmann (2023) identifies
44-574: Is a French linguist who specializes in the study of Sino-Tibetan languages : Old Chinese , Tangut , Tibetan , Gyalrongic and Kiranti languages. He also performs research on the Algonquian and Siouan language families and publishes about languages of other families such as Breton . His case studies in historical phonology are set in the framework of panchronic phonology , aiming to formulate generalizations about sound change that are independent of any particular language or language group. Jacques

Guillaume Jacques studied linguistics at the University of Amsterdam and Paris Diderot University . He obtained his doctorate in 2004 with a dissertation on the phonology and morphology of the Japhug language (one of

He taught at Paris Descartes University for four years before taking up a permanent research position at the Centre de recherches linguistiques sur l'Asie orientale (CRLAO) . Guillaume Jacques is one of the Editors of the linguistics journal Cahiers de Linguistique Asie Orientale . He is
77-693: The Kirati people . George van Driem had formerly proposed that the Kiranti languages were part of a Mahakiranti family, although specialists are not completely certain of either the existence of a Kiranti subgroup or its precise membership. LaPolla (2003), though, proposes that Kiranti may be part of a larger " Rung " group. There are about two dozen Kiranti languages. Among the better known are Limbu , Sunuwar , Bantawa , Chamling , Khaling , Bahing , Yakkha , Wayu , Dungmali , Lohorung , and Kulung . Kiranti verbs are not easily segmentable, due in large part to
88-422: The number of stop series reconstructed (three vs four) and the interpretation of the correspondences. Opgenort introduces the reconstruction of preglottalized resonants; his reconstruction is generally based on Starostin's four series system. More recently, Jacques proposed a reconstruction of proto-Kiranti verb roots based on Michailovsky's system, and analyzes the other initial correspondences (in particular,
99-592: The population of Nepal) were Bahing. The frequency of Bahing people by province was as follows: The frequency of Bahing people was higher than national average (0.0%) in the following districts: This article about an ethnic group in Asia is a stub . You can help Misplaced Pages by expanding it . Kiranti languages The Kiranti languages are a major family of Sino-Tibetan languages spoken in Nepal and India (notably Sikkim , Darjeeling , Kalimpong , and Bhutan ) by
110-513: The presence of portmanteau morphemes , crowded affix strings, and extensive (and often nonintuitive) allomorphy . Thus their relationship to each other has been a subject of debate. Overall, Kiranti languages are classified: Ethnologue adds Tilung language to Western Kiranti, based on Opgenort (2011). Opgenort (2005) classifies the Kiranti languages as follows, and recognizes a basic east-west division within Kiranti. Historical linguists , as early as 2012, do not consider Kiranti to be
121-422: The series reconstructed as non-aspirated unvoiced stops by Starostin) as due to morphological alternations and inter-Kiranti borrowing. In addition, he presents a preliminary discussion of the reconstruction of stem alternation and stress patterns on the basis of Khaling and Dumi .
