The primarily spoken language of Rajasthan is Hindi. However, when the
state of Rajasthan was founded, a number of princely states were merged.
This led to the emergence of different dialects in the local languages
of Rajasthan.
The four main dialects of Rajasthani language are:
Marwari
The Marwari dialect is mainly spoken in the western Rajasthan. In fact,
Marwari is the most widely spoken dialect in Rajasthan.

spoken. Also known as Dhundhari, this dialect forms is spoken by the
maximum number of Rajasthanis, after Marwari.
