There is no provided reference but I think they're talking about a proto Hazaragi language. Some Hazaragi dialects are quite heavy on Mongolian words, it was probably one of these dialects. Standard Hazaragi has so many Mongol and Turkic words, it is barely classified as Persian, and the countryside Hazaragi cannot be understood by a persian speaker, and vice versa.

Specifically Dai Zangi and Dai Kundi Hazaras speak more Mongolic Hazaragi. There is no such language as 'Mogholi' to Hazaras or other people in the region, and noone else in Afghanistan has Mongol ancestory.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.197.228.61 (talkcontribs) 08:37, 19 October 2006

I've now added two references, so the proof of the existence of this language is clear and we don't get more comments like the previous, unsigned one. (Taivo (talk) 13:15, 18 March 2008 (UTC))Reply

Moghol Numbers

edit

Numbers in Moghol after 6 seem to be Indic origin. See below.

English Classical Mongolian Moghol Sanskrit
1 "One" "Nigen" "Nika" "Ekam"
2 "Two" "Qoyar" "Qyor"
3 "Three" "Ghurban" "Qurbun"
4 "Four" "Dorben" "Durbon"
5 "Five" "Tabun" "Tuwan"
6 "Six" "Jirghughan" "Jurghan", "Shish"
7 "Seven" "Dologhan" "Jolan", "Huft" "Sapta"
8 "Eight" "Naiman" "Hushtu" "Ashta"
9 "Nine" "Yisun" "No" "Nava"
10 "Ten" "Arban" "Arbon", "Da" "Dasha"

Hnn, seems quite possible, I would love to see a linguistic account of that. "hu-shtu" vs "a-shta", for example, might be easy to explain or almost unhandable ... I don't have an opinion on whether this information should be provided on the main page or not (while being skeptical about providing number tables without comments in general).

Those numbers from 7 to 10 are very similar to Persian: haft, hasht, noh, dah. Which makes a lot of sense because that is what most people in Herat speak.Yaan (talk) 11:51, 8 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
P.S. Farsi for 6 is shesh or shash. Yaan (talk) 11:58, 8 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
