Bhaya · 25.5°N 69.3°E

Bhaya is a moribund and possibly extinct Indo-Aryan language spoken in the lower Sindh province. According to Ethnologue, it belongs to the Western Hindi subgroup, and possesses considerable lexical and morphemic similarities with neighbouring languages, but leaves it unclassified beyond this. Glottolog classifies it as part of the Western Rajasthani languages instead. An unwritten language, it has often been subject to erroneous, arbitrary, or politically motivated designation as a dialect.
