For all interested in the languages of that region, this might be an interesting set of resources: http://dsal.uchicago.edu/dictionaries/edit: and this is quite cool too: http://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/ ~ a searchable copy of The Imperial Gazetteer of India Hunter, William Wilson, Sir, 1840-1900 Cotton, James Sutherland, 1847-1918 ed. Burn, Richard, Sir, 1871-1947 joint ed. Meyer, William Stevenson, Sir, 1860-1922. joint ed. .................................... New edition, published under the authority of His Majesty's secretary of state for India in council. Oxford, Clarendon Press, 1908-1931 [v. 1, 1909]~ with a nod to languagelog's quote of Dick & Garlick's blog: http://dickandgarlick.blogspot.com/2005/06/burgers-bun-kababs.html

Thanks, mav. I had the hobson-jobson from that that list but the Dick & Garlick's page was new to me. Now if I ever get to visit family in Pakistan, I can de-burgerise my speech to fit in.

I mighta made it all the way through life without knowing that there are 446 Navajo language speakers in the State of Washington. In that it is a long way from here to where the Navajo language is commonly spoken, one wonders as to the rest of this story.
