Other MI languages[edit]

There are at least four other MI languages attested

Pāli - the language of the so-called Pāli Canon (the word Pāli/Pāḷi meaning 'a line'); however some would class Pāli as a form of Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit.
Maghadī - known from Asoka edicts in what is now Bihar.
Western MI - known from Asoka edicts in what is now Gujarat.
Gāndhārī - know from manuscripts found in the Northwest Frontier provinces of what is now Pakistan, mostly Buddhist texts and inscriptions.

Descriptive part removed ? ?[edit]

The English version lacks any phonological & grammatical DESCRIPTION of Middle Indo-Aryan. The Catalan version resembles the English one literally, but CONTAINS valuable phonological & grammatical information. Should be inserted or re-inserted into the English text.
