Notes

Mr. Akhlaque — a school friend of Saeeduz Zafar Ali — hails from Fatehpūr village, but after marriage, shifts to his wife’s home in the Rāmpūr village. He is a native Azamgarhi speaker but has also become fluent in Bhojpuri after shifting to Rāmpūr. This recording is an outcome of a dialect survey undertaken by Maaz and assisted by his uncle Saeeduz Zafar in the north-eastern part of the Maū district to determine the eastern extent of Azamgarhi. Rāmpūr is the first village in the region (on going west to east from Azamgarh) where Muslims and Hindus speak the same language — Bhojpuri.
