[edit] [view] دیشی بولی (Deshi Buli)Whereas Standard Bangistani tries its best to somewhat maintain the pronunciations of its vast inventory of foreign words, the Deshi Buli (meaning "local/rustic language") pronounces and spells words strictly how the locals speak them; furthermore, it is slightly more open to Prakrit and even Sanskrit words than the standard language, which makes for a different word choice among its speakers. Due to its rusticity, this form of speech is looked down upon.
