Beary bashe

The dialect of Malayalam spoken by the Muslim community of Dakshina Kannada , Udupi districts of Karnataka and some pockets such as Uppala and Manjeshwaram of Kasaragod Taluk in Kerala, called Beary(Byaris), is known as Beary Bashe. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- ix . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] While Muslims of Uttara Kannada, called Nawayaths, speak a dialect of Konkani and Mappilas of Kerala speak Malayalam(Mappila Malayalam), Bearys spoke a language made of Malayalam idioms with Tulu phonology and grammar. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- ix . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] This dialect was traditionally known as Mappila Malayalam because of Bearys close contact with Mappilas. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- ix . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Due to vast influence of Tulu for centuries, it is today considered as a language, close to both Malayalam and Tulu. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- ix . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Features

Being a distant cousin of other dialects of Malayalam and surrounded by other linguistic groups for centuries,mainly Tulu and Kannada, one can see ancient features as well as modern innovations not seen in other well known dialects of Malayalam. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 63 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Surrounded by Tulu speaking community, the impact of Tulu on the phonological, morphological and syntactical structure of the dialect is evident. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 64 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Distinction of "ḻ", "ṇ", "ṟ"

Sounds peculiar to Malayalam such as 'ḻ', 'ṇ', 'ṟ' are not found in this dialect. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 65 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Even 'ḷ' and 'ṇ' are merged with l and n respectively. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 65 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] The sound 'ṟ' is merged with r and tt, 'tt' to t. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 66 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] This is same as case in Tulu. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 66 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Distinction of ‘n’ and ‘m’

The word final ‘n’ and ‘m’ of standard Malayalam are dropped in Beary bashe. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 66 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Degeminated Consonants

Geminated consonants occurring after a long vowel and also after a second short vowel of a word in standard Malayalam get degeminated in Beary bashe. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 67 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Lexical Relations

Almost all lexical items in Beary bashe can be related to corresponding lexical items in Malayalam, Tulu or Perso-Arabic origin. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 79 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] However, some equivalents can only be found in Mappila dialects of Malayalam in Kerala. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 79 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]

Personal Terminations/Suffixes

Verbs in primitive Dravidian languages did not have any personal terminations. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Personal terminations of verbs observed in modern Dravidian languages are later innovations. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Malayalam is the only Dravidian language that does not show any personal terminations or suffixes to the verbs. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Thus Malayalam verbs represents the primitive stage of Dravidian verbs. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] The personal terminations found in Beary bashe can be the case of an innovation which was borrowed from Tulu. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Even Mappila Malayalam dialect of Malayalam does not show any personal terminations or suffixes to verbs. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] Personal suffixes found in Beary bashe closely resemble that of Tulu. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973] But in formation of past tense, the dialect agrees with the standard Malayalam in shape as well as the distribution of allomorphs in the suffix. [Upadhyaya, U. Padmanabha. Coastal Karnataka: Studies in Folkloristic and Linguistic Traditions of Dakshina Kannada Region of the Western Coast of India. Udupi: Rashtrakavi Govind Pai Samshodhana Kendra, 1996.P- 68 . ISBN 81-86668-06-3 .First All India Conference of Dravidian Linguistics, Thiruvananthapuram, 1973]
