Features

Gujarati has three genders (masculine, feminine, and neuter) and follows a Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) sentence structure. It features a rich system of verb conjugations based on tense, aspect, and politeness levels. The language has been influenced by Sanskrit, Persian, Arabic, and English, leading to a diverse vocabulary.

Dialects

Gujarati has several dialects, broadly categorized into Standard Gujarati, Saurashtra, Kathiawari, Surati, and Gamadia, among others. These dialects vary in pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar based on regional and social influences. Surati is known for its softer pronunciation, while Kathiawari has distinct intonations. The Gamadia dialect, spoken in central Gujarat, forms the basis of Standard Gujarati. Additionally, there are overseas variations influenced by migration, such as East African and UK Gujarati, which incorporate loanwords from local languages. Despite these differences, Gujarati speakers generally understand each other across dialects.

Writing System

Devanagari script

U.S. Distribution

Gujarati is widely spoken among Indian-American communities in the United States, particularly in states with large South Asian populations. The highest concentrations of Gujarati speakers are found in New Jersey, California, Texas, Illinois, and New York, especially in cities like Edison, Jersey City, San Francisco Bay Area, Houston, and Chicago. Gujarati is one of the most spoken Indian languages in the U.S., driven by significant immigration from Gujarat since the mid-20th century.
