Kanashi is a unique Sino-Tibetan language spoken exclusively in Malana, a village in Himachal Pradesh, India, surrounded by Indo-Aryan language speakers. This book addresses the scarcity of linguistic material on Kanashi and explores its intriguing prehistory, questioning how it became isolated from its closest relatives. It examines the potential genealogical links between Kanashi and Kinnauri, despite the significant geographical separation. The work seeks to shed light on the shared linguistic features that have remained underexplored in existing literature.
