Dogri language

Dogri (Dogra script: 𑠖𑠵𑠌𑠤𑠮, Devanagari: डोगरी, Nastaliq: ڈوگری, Romanised: Ḍōgrī, IPA: [ɖoːɡ.ɾiː]) is an Indo-Aryan language of the Western Pahari group, primarily spoken by the Dogra people native to the Jammu Division of India's Jammu and Kashmir; with smaller groups of speakers in the adjoining regions of the Indian states of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab, as well as Pakistan-administered Azad Kashmir and the Pakistani province of Punjab. It is currently spoken in the districts of Kathua, Jammu, Samba, Udhampur and parts of Reasi District (mostly in Reasi, Katra and Pouni Tehsil) of Jammu division. Unusually for an Indo-European language, Dogri is tonal, a trait it shares with other Western Pahari languages and Punjabi. It has several varieties, all with greater than 80% lexical similarity.
