The Morphological Characteristics of Moranmese or
Moran-Assamese Language

Mridul Moran, M.A., Junior Research Fellow

Abstract

The Moran is one of the old ethnic groups of Assam. The Moran tribe is residing mainly in Tinsukia and Dibrugarh district, Assam, India. In this article we explain the morphological characteristics of Moran-Assamese language. The research location is Rahbari Hanhkhati village, Tinsukia district.

Keywords: Moran, Moran-Assamese Language, Morphological Characteristics, Tibeto-Burman Language.

1. Introduction

The origin of the Moran language is Bodo language (Tibeto-Burman groups of Sino-Tibettan language family). But the Moran tribe accepts the Assamese language like the Ahom people. Now, Assamese language is the first language of the Moran community. Therefore, we see a similarity of the Moran language with the Assamese language. Few original words or characteristics are observed in the Moran-Assamese language.
