Achte auf die hervorgehobenen Teile. Was haben sie gemeinsam?
Modern standard Hindi is based on खड़ी बोली, the speech of the Delhi region. The other varieties are not corruptions of it; several have older literary traditions than the standard does.
| ब्रज | west of Delhi; the language of Surdas and much devotional poetry |
| अवधी | Awadh; the language of Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas |
| भोजपुरी | eastern UP and Bihar; a huge speaker base and its own film industry |
| हरियाणवी, राजस्थानी | west and southwest |
Different auxiliaries (बा and हउवे in Bhojpuri where standard has है), different pronouns, and a different vowel colour. The grammar you have learned still carries you a long way.
Speakers switch: standard at work, dialect at home. Treating a dialect form as a mistake is both wrong and impolite.
