Study Notes
Assamese Language Overview
Introduction and Origins
Assamese is one of the major languages spoken in Northeast India. It originated from the eastern group of Indo-Aryan languages, more specifically, the Eastern Kamrupi dialect. The name 'Assam' itself comes from Sanskrit, meaning 'the land of Ahom'. The earliest literature written in Assamese dates back to the 7th century AD, with the oldest known book being the Borgeet written by Madhavdeva in 1699. The language continued to evolve over time through trade and cultural exchanges between neighboring communities and regions like Arakan, Manipur, Chittagong Hill Tracts, and Tibet.
Geographical Distribution
The primary region where Assamese is spoken is Assam state in northeastern India. However, it is also spoken outside Assam, particularly in parts of West Bengal, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Mizoram, Tripura, Jharkhand, and Karnataka. Additionally, there are small populations of Assamese speakers living in countries such as Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.
Literature and Script
In its early stages, Assamese was written in the Devanagari script. Later, the Assamese script was developed based on it. The Brahmi script preceded both these scripts, which were probably derived from it. Modern Assamese writing is done using the Assamese script. One notable feature of this script is that it incorporates letters from the Bengali alphabet and some consonant clusters found only in the Assamese script.
Dialects and Variations
There are variations within the Assamese language due to geography and historical influences. For instance, the Assamese spoken near the Assam-Meghalaya border has been influenced by the local dialects of West Garo Hills and East Khasi Hills. Another variation exists between Eastern and Western Assam, with different pronunciations and grammatical constructions.
Influence and Diffusion
Historically, Assamese has played a significant role in the spread of Suryapotra Hinduism and Buddhism throughout Southeast Asia, particularly in Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Sumatra, Java, Borneo, Celebes, Sulawesi, Ceram, Flores, Timor, and the Philippines. This influence can still be seen today in various aspects of culture, including literature, architecture, fashion, and music.
Conclusion
In summary, Assamese is a vibrant and dynamic language that has evolved over centuries, shaped by its geographic location, historical interactions, and societal changes. Its presence extends far beyond its native region, reflective of the powerful cultural ties that bind various communities across nations.
