Nepalese Translation Services

Nepali is an Indo-Aryan language spoken in Nepal, Bhutan, and some parts of India and Burma. It is the official language of Nepal. Roughly half the population of Nepal speaks Nepalese as a mother tongue, and many other Nepalese speak it as a second language.

Khaskura, as its speakers themselves call it, passes under various names. English speakers generally call it Nepali or Nepalese (i.e. the language of Nepal). Khaskura is also called Gorkhali or Gurkhali, the language of the Gurkhas, and Parbatiya, the language of the mountains.

Nepali is closely related to Hindi but is more conservative, borrowing fewer words from Persian and English and using more Sanskritic derivations. Today, Nepali is commonly written in the Devanagari script. Bhujimol is an older script native to Nepal.

NEPALESE
Nepali developed a small literature during the second half of the nineteenth century, which included the <Adhyatma Ramayana> by <Sundarananda Bara> (1833), Birsikka, an anonymous collection of folk-tales, and a Ramayana by Bhanubhakta. There were also several translations of Sanskrit works, and a version of the Bible.

Kathmandu, July 18 - The specter of the 19th session of parliament returned today to haunt the current session with the opposition shouting slogans against Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala and demanding his resignation for his alleged involvement in the controversial Lauda jet deal and for his failure to contain the escalating Maoists' insurgency.
