<b>Description:</b>
 
Sirāikī (Perso-Arabic: سرائیکی, Gurmukhi: ਸਰਾਇਕੀ, Devanagari: सराइकी), commonly spelled Saraiki, also Siraiki, is a standard written language of Pakistan belonging to the Indo-Aryan (Indic) languages. Seraiki is based on a group of vernacular dialects very similar to one another spoken in the southern half of Punjab Province and in adjacent northern parts of Sindh Province by over 14 million people, as well as by nearly 70,000 emigrants and their descendants in India. Historically, these are unwritten dialects. They are similar to the core dialects of Punjabi, which are spoken to their northeast. The development of the standard language of Seraiki, a process which began after the founding of Pakistan in 1947, has been driven by a regionalist political movement. Since 1981, the national census of Pakistan has tabulated Seraiki among the nation's mother tongues.
The English language spelling of the name, specifically the vowel of the first syllable, is not agreed on even within Pakistan. The name in general was adopted in the 1960's by regional social and political leaders. The name is widely considered to have originated with the word for "northern" in the neighboring Sindhi<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=509685 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
