Ethnologue theme er of speakers at 21.3 million, whereas Wikipedia puts the number at some 42 million. Of these 35 million live in the Sindh province of Pakistan, and 5 million in the states of Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra in India. The rest represent a diaspora in Unitthe ed Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, with smaller numbers in other countries.

The earliest written reference to Kutchi dates back to the 2nd century AD. The language is thought to have evolved from an ancient Prakrit brought to Sindh by early settlers from Northeast and Northwest India. Sindh was conquered by Dravidian-speaking invaders around 4,000 BC. As a result, Kutchi shows many signs of Dravidian influence. Around 1500 BC, Sindh was conquered by Indo-Aryan invaders who established the Vedic civilization that laid the foundation of Hinduism and the Indian culture of today.

The earliest ever translation of the Qur’an was into Kutchi in the 12th century. In the 14-18th centuries, Kutchi was one of the most popular literary languages in the eastern world due to its rich vocabulary.

Kutchi-Swahili, or Cutchi-Swahili, is a Swahili-based creole spoken among the Indian population of East Africa. It is the native language of some Gujarati families from Zanzibar that have settled in the larger cities of mainland Tanzania and Kenya and is used as a second language by others of the Indian community. It is derived from the Kutchi language of the Kutch district in Gujarat'''. The''' base of the 2002 Census in Tanzania speakers was 45,000. But remember it was 18yYears ago. Maho (2009) assigns different codes to Kutchi-Swahili and Asian Swahili (Kibabu),[3], and Ethnologue also notes that these may not be the same.[1]

Structure: بناوٹ
===Sound system: آواز جو نظام    ===

The phonological system of Kutchi is similar to that of other Indo-Aryan languages, for instance, Kutchi has a large inventory of phonemes, i.e., sounds that make a difference in word meaning. Most Kutchi syllables end in a vowel or semi-vowel. Very few syllables end in a consonant, and consonant clusters are infrequent.

Vowels:  اُچار جی دُٻ
Kutchi has a large inventory of vowels. All vowels have short and long counterparts. The length is represented by a macron in the table below. In addition, all vowels have nasalized counterparts. Nasalization is represented by a tilde in the table below.

Consonants: حروف جیوں شِکلوں
Kutchi has a full series of consonants, more than most other Indo-Aryan languages. Consonants in parentheses are infrequent and mostly occur in loanwords.

There is a contrast
Between aspirated vs. un-aspirated stops, affricates, and nasals, for instance between p—pʰ, t—tʰ, k—kʰ, b—bʰ, d—dʰ, g—gʰ, tʃ – tʃʰ, /m/—/mʰ/,/ /n/—/nʰ/, /ɳ/—/ɳʰ/. Aspirated consonants are produced with a strong puff of air.

There is a contrast between
and apical vs. retroflex consonants, e.g., /t/ – /ʈ/, /d/ – /ɖ/, /n/ – /ɳ/, /r/ – /ɽ/. Apical consonants are produced with the tip of the tongue touching the roof of the mouth, whereas retroflex consonants are produced with the tongue curled so that its underside comes in contact with the roof of the mouth.

Kutchi has an unusually large
A number of implosive consonants /ɓ, ɗ, ʄ, ɠ/ produced by pulling air downward with the glottis, rather than pushing it out. These sounds do not occur in other Indo-Aryan languages.

Consonants:

 * /ʃ/ = sh in shop
 * /tʃ/ = ch in chop
 * /x/, /ɣ/ have no equivalents in English


 * /ɲ/ = first n in canyon
 * /ŋ/ = ng in song
 * /mʰ/, /nʰ/, /ɳʰ/ have no equivalents in English


 * /ʋ/ is realized as /w/ or /v/.
 * /j/ = y in yet

Stress: کِھچروں یا زور
Stress does not distinguish the meaning of otherwise identical Kutchi words. It typically falls on the heaviest syllable of the word. Consonant + vowel (CV) syllables are heavier than syllables consisting of a single vowel (V) and Consonant + Vowel + Vowel + Vowel (CVV) syllables are heavier than Consonant + vowel (CV) syllables.

Grammar: ٻولی اصول
Kutchi has its own Grammar & Dialects retained many features of ancient Prakrit and share major grammatical features with other Indo-Aryan languages, such as the use of postpositions which follow the noun, rather than prepositions that precede it. Grammar is belonging to Ancient SANSKRIT.

Nouns Adjectives and pronouns: اسم ، صفت انے ضمیر
Kutchi nouns feature a complex system of noun stem modifications as well as post-positions.
 * Gender (masculine and feminine) determines the noun’s declension.


 * There are two numbers: singular and plural.


 * There are eight cases: nominative, accusative, dative, genitive, ablative, locative, instrumental, and vocative. Cases are marked by changes in the noun stem and by postpositions.
 * Adjectives are declined exactly like nouns and agree with them in gender, number, and case.
 * Pronouns are inflected for number and case.

Verbs: عمل جو طریقو
Kutchi verbs consist of three basic components (adverbial participle, basic verb, and auxiliary verb) which appear in various combinations, depending on tense, aspect, and mood. Verbs agree with their subjects in person, gender, and number. Pronoun subjects are often omitted if the context is clear. Verbs display the following categories:
 * three tenses: present, past, and future;
 * two aspects: imperfective and perfective;
 * two voices: active and passive;
 * four moods: indicative, imperative, subjunctive, and counterfactual

Word order: اکھر جی سرکھائی
The normal word in Kutchi is Subject-Object-Verb. However, these components can be rearranged to mark emphasis or focus. Adjectives and relative clauses precede the nouns they modify. Indirect objects precede direct objects. Negative/interrogative elements precede the verb. Adverbs typically follow the subject and precede the object(s) of the verb.

Vocabulary: ذخیرو
Most Kutchi words are derived from Sanskrit, but the language also has a large number of Persian and Arabic loanwords due to centuries of Muslim influence. In more recent times, Kutchi has come into close contact with Urdu, the dominant language of Pakistan. As a result, Kutchi has borrowed many Urdu words. But the Vocabulary of the Kutchi language is very long as the same meaning owns its words.

Writing: لکھائی
Kutchi is written in three different scripts: a modified Arabic script used in both Pakistan and India, and the Devanagari script used by a number of Kutchi speakers in India. Since Kutchi has many more consonants and vowels than Arabic, extra letters have been created through the use of diacritic dots that modify the basic letter shapes as in Sindhi. The orthography consists of Sindhi Alphabets, 52 consonant, and 10 vowel symbols, plus a number of diacritics marks. But The Hani Kutchi Script has 55 consonant and 10 vowel symbols. The Hani Kutchi script is written from right to left, and short vowels are omitted, except at the beginning of words. In 1948, the Indian government implemented the Devanagari script for writing Kutchi, but it did not gain mass acceptance. As a result, the language is written in both the modified Arabic and Devanagari script in India. Kutchi can also be written with the Roman alphabet which is increasingly used in electronic communications. Also a lot of Kutchi using Roman Kutchi from all over the World. Especially on Internet Social sites. In 2016, As a Pakistanis Doctor (Dr. Muhammad Haneef Mughal Kutchi) Speaker as Dr. Hani Kutchi ڈاکٹر محمد حنیف مغل – ڈاکٹر ہانی کچھی ) has been invented the Pakistani Kutchi Script for writing Kutchi, but it also gains mass acceptance. As a result, the language is written in both the modified Arabic and Devanagari scripts in Pakistan & India.

Structure of Kutchi : کچھی زبان جی بناوٹ
Kutchi is categorized as an SOV (Subject-Object-Verb فاعل ، مفعول ، فعل - ) language like other Indo-Aryan languages. Similar to these languages, word order is not rigid but rather flexible. The subject, object, and verb are freely moved around within a sentence, fulfilling various pragmatic purposes, such as establishing a point of focus, naming a topic, or revealing new information.
