| Language Information |
Maithili, Linguists have classified Maithili as one of the Indo-Aryan languages. It is an offshoot of the Indo-Aryan languages, which are part of the Indo-Iranian, a branch of the Indo-European languages. Linguists consider Maithili to be a Eastern Indic language, and thus different from Hindi, which is Central Indic in origin.
