In its general appearance the district presents diverse features and topographically may be divided into several distinct tracts. In the north and north-west the tract is a continuation of the Terai. The southern portion of the [[Bisalpur]] tehsil is similar in most respect to the adjacent tract of [[Bareilly]] and [[Shahjahanpur]]. The eastern and smaller section approximates rather to undeveloped forest areas of [[Lakhimpur Kheri]], though with the spread of cultivation the dissimilarity between [[Puranpur]] and the rest of the district is gradually becoming less marked. There are 1227 [[Villages in the district Pilibhit]], out of which 964 are electrified. |
|||
The district has more than 10 small to medium sized rivers amd 9 small to medium sized water bodies. The origin of river [[Gomti]], '''Gumti''' or '''Gomati''' ({{lang-hi|'''गोमती'''}}), which is a [[tributary]] of the [[Ganges River]], is from a small lake Gomat Taal situated in Madhotnada in the [[Puranpur]] tehsil region.<ref>http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1924395.cms</ref> Another important river in the district is [[River Sharda]] ({{lang-hi|'''शारदा नदी'''}}), which runs through on the eastern part of the district.

Prior to the abolition of [[zamindari]] the zamindars owned large tracts of arable and forest land. The farm labour was brought from eastern [[Uttar Pradesh]] and [[Bihar]]. After [[zamindari]] was abolished the excess cultivable land was distributed amongst the landless agricultural labour. In the post independence period large number of displaced persons from [[Pakistan]] were settled in the area. They were provided cultivable land mainly by clearing private forests. Large tracts were cleared and wetlands were drained and brought under the plough. The inhabitants of the landscape generally belong to the following major groups – those from eastern [[Uttar Pradesh]], those from [[Pakistan]] including [[Punjabis]] and [[Bengalis]], migrants from [[Punjab (India)|Punjab]] and the locals. |
|||
[[Image:Eagle view Pilibhit.JPG|thumb|250px|right|An Aerial View of Pilibhit city]] |
|||
The common property lands and resources are worst affected in [[Puranpur]] tehsil. The population density of the tehsil has increased considerably over the last two decades. The population groups constantly endeavour to maintain their interests and identity. The immigrant labour and the [[Bengalis]] are the weakest economically but have a growing political clout. The [[Punjabi]] displaced persons and migrants are financially the strongest and wield considerable political clout.<ref>http://www.pingalwaraonline.org/articles/articles_mason.htm</ref> The locals are always anxious to safeguard their interests against the immigrants. The locals are strongest in the process of decision making. |
|||
Amongst the locals are also the [[Thar]]u tribals.<ref>http://h.ebharat.in/tharu-rana</ref> They are settled cultivators, keep large herd of [[cattle]], some [[sheep]] and [[goat]]s. They have a distinct cultural identity. There are some [[Tharu]] villages in the proximity of Katerniyaghat Sanctuary. They are related to the [[Tharu]]s in the terai areas of [[Nepal]]. The [[Tharu]]s depend on the forests for food, fodder, medicine, small timber for construction of huts and agricultural implements, handicrafts, social and religious ceremonies. The major [[Tharu]] groups include the Ranas, Dingoras and Katharias. Marriages between these groups are very uncommon. Once their habitations were forest villages but now these are revenue villages. The tribal area development schemes have benefited these people. They have adopted modern farming techniques and have slowly shifted from subsistence level farming to raising cash crops. Some now own tractor and other farm implements. The eco development initiatives have largely focused on these [[Tharu]] villages. |

'''Flemish''' ''(Vlaams'' in [[Dutch language|Dutch]]) is a popular informal term to refer to '''Belgian Dutch''' (''Belgisch-Nederlands'' in Dutch), Dutch as spoken in Belgium.<ref>[http://www.vandale.nl/vandale/opzoeken/woordenboek/?zoekwoord=vlaams As according to Van Dale.]</ref> Among linguists, 'Flemish' refers to two specific dialects of Dutch alone, namely [[East Flemish|East]] and [[West Flemish]]. Occasionally 'Flemish' is used to refer to ''tussentaal'' a Dutch sociolect, also spoken in Belgium. |
|||
Pilibhit experiences three distinct seasons: summer, [[monsoon]] and winter. Typical summer months are from March end to June, with maximum temperatures ranging from {{convert|36|°C|°F|0}} to {{convert|42|°C|°F|0}}. Contrary to most of the Himalyan Plateau where June is the warmest month, the warmest months in Pilibhit is May. The city starts receiving heavy thundershowers with sharp downpours in Mid June. Though the temperatures plunge in this month, the summer heat accompanied by high humidity can be occasionally quite oppressive. |
|||
Dutch is the [[majority language]] in Belgium, being spoken natively by about 59% of the population. Its various dialects contain a number of lexical and a few grammatical features which distinguish them from the standard language.<ref>G. Janssens and A. Marynissen, ''Het Nederlands vroeger en nu'' (Leuven/Voorburg 2005), 155 ff.</ref> As in the Netherlands, the pronunciation of Standard Dutch is affected by the native dialect of the speaker. |
|||
[[Monsoon]] winds blowing from the south India are a welcome relief in mid of June, bringing with them heavy showers in July, August. Pilibhit receives excessive rainfall in the month of August & September. The city receives an annual rainfall of 723 mm, mainly between June and September as the result of southwest monsoon. August is the wettest month of the year. The spells of continuous rainfall may stretch to many days or even a few weeks. Pilibhit has, on record, received rainfall for 17 consecutive days (days when rainfall is greater than 21.7 mm) in 1967. |
|||
All Dutch dialects spoken in Belgium (with the exception of [[East Flemish]]) are spoken in adjacent areas of the Netherlands as well. At the same time East Flemish forms a continuum with both Brabantic and West Flemish. Standard Dutch is primarily based on the [[Hollandic]] dialect (spoken in the Northern Netherlands) and to a lesser extent on [[Brabantian]], which is the most dominant Dutch dialect of the Southern Netherlands and Flanders. |
|||
As the monsoon winds recede, the day temperatures starts decline in October with cooler nights signalling the onset of winter. Pilibhit experiences winter from November to February. it experience pleasant windy days, clear skies and cool nights in the month of November till February ends, Which makes it the most enjoyable time of the year. The day temperature hovers around {{convert|14|°C|°F|0}} while night temperature is below {{convert|7|°C|°F|0}} for most of December and January, often dropping to {{convert|3|°C|°F|0}} or {{convert|4|°C|°F|0}}. On particularly cold days, wind may appear to be very chilly due to the dryness of air. [[Rain]] is very expected in month of February.<ref>http://www.wunderground.com/auto/virtuallythere/global/stations/42190.html</ref> |
|||
The main difference between Dutch spoken in Belgium and the Netherlands, is that Dutch in Belgium is uses the sound inventory of the Brabantic dialects.<ref>[http://www.demorgen.be/dm/nl/1344/Onderwijs/article/detail/159691/2008/02/05/Jongeren-spreken-geen-AN-maar-wel-Algemeen-Vlaams.dhtml Jongeren spreken geen AN, maar wel Algemeen Vlaams]</ref> which is often called ''tussentaal'' ("in-between-language", between dialects and standard Dutch).<ref name="kul">[http://wwwling.arts.kuleuven.ac.be/qlvl/PDFPublications/01Eenzondagspak.pdf Geeraerts, Dirk. 2001.

Erfdeel 44: 337-344]</ref> This evolution is somewhat similar to the emergence of ''Poldernederlands'' in the Netherlands, a medium of everyday speech heavily influenced by Hollandic. It should be emphasized that neither ''Poldernederlands'' nor ''Tussentaal'' are dialects or different standard forms, but [[sociolect]]s. |

==Etymology== |

{{Main|Dutch phonology}} |
|||
The city Pilibhit derived its name from a near by small village name 'Old Pilibhit', whose existence has been traced in mid of 15th Century, this village still exist on the bank of the river Ghaghra or Khakra in the north-east from the city on the way to [[Nyoria Husainpur]] town. It is believed and as official documents say, this village was occupied by the Bhanjara (Local community) of Periya clan, which used to live in the houses, made of mud and other raw material, available in the forest. This community made a '''wall of yellow mud''' around their locality in order to secure their house from wild animal, as that area was a dense forest, so the people use to call the locality as Pili (Yellow)- Bhit (Wall). Eventually, the nearest town (present city) adopted the name as 'Pilibhit'. According to a document from [[British Library]] 'the city Pilibhit' has its existence when in the late 18th century (1770-1780 AC) [[Maratha]]s invaded the [[Rohilkhand]] region. With this invasion, [[Kurmi]] community came to this region and in the due course of time, the city Pilibhit enlarged it boundaries.<ref>http://banjaratimes.com/18022/18127.html? *session*id*key*=*session*id*val*/</ref> Another evidence of the city existence is found in an [[Nepali]] literture, which metions a city named as Pilibhit, which provided shelter to the last king of [[Shah dynasty]], Deepa Shah, who was attacked by the [[Gorakha]] King in 1789 AD.<ref>http://books.google.co.in/books?id=I-YUoG62Zx8C&pg=PA88&lpg=PA88&dq=Pilibhit+Historical+importance&source=web&ots=z99pjnyB_9&sig=1EkKOLwpu2D5USxnyebD05fMNqg&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=6&ct=result#PPA88,M1</ref> The Rohella ruler [[Hafiz Rahmat Khan]], a [[Pashtun]] ancestor of Afgans in the area, developed Pilibhit as an city and administrative unit . |
|||
Among Belgian Dutch vowels, the diphthong "ou/au" (as in ''bout'' [[bolt]] and ''[[fauna]]'') is realized as {{IPA|[ɔu]}}, whereas northern Dutch realizes it as {{IPA|[ʌu]}}. Among [[consonants]], the northern Dutch pronunciation of "w" (as in ''wang'' [[cheek]]) is {{IPA|[ʋ]}} or {{IPA|[v]}}, in some southern Dutch dialects it is {{IPA|[β]}}. Probably the most obvious difference between northern and southern Dutch is the northern [[voiceless velar fricative]] {{IPA|[x]}}, which is equivalent in southern Dutch to either a [[voiced velar fricative]] {{IPA|[ɣ]}}, most often when spelt "g", or a [[voiceless palatal fricative]] {{IPA|/ç/}}, most often when spelt "ch". |
|||
===Lexical differences=== |
|||
==History== |
|||
Belgian Dutch encompasses more French loanwords in everyday vocubulary than Dutch spoken in the Netherlands.<ref>G. Janssens and A. Marynissen, ''Het Nederlands vroeger en nu'' (Leuven/Voorburg 2005), 156</ref> At the same time Brabantian, traditionally the most spoken Dutch dialect in Belgium, has had a larger influence on the vocabulary used in Belgium. Examples include ''beenhouwer'' (Brabantian) and ''slager'' (Hollandic), both meaning [[butcher]]; and ''schoon'' (Brabantian) vs. ''mooi'' (Hollandic) "beautiful". The changes ([[isogloss]]es) from northern to southern Dutch dialects are gradual, both vocabulary-wise and phonetically, and the boundaries do not coincide with territorial borders. |
|||
In 1801 when [[Rohilkhand]] was ceded to the [[United Kingdom|British]], Pilibhit was a pargana of the district of [[Bareilly]], which lost it in 1833, the arrangement being temporary and the tract being again united with [[Bareilly]] in 1841. In 1871 was formed the Pilibhit subdivision comprising Jahanabad, Pilibhit and [[Puranpur]] which was eventually converted into a separate district in 1879. At the introduction of the British rule the parganas of Pilibhit, Jahanabad & [[Bisalpur]] was formed into separate tehsils. [[Puranpur]] was united for this purpose with Khutar. A redistribution of the area was effected in 1824, when the [[Bisalpur]] tehsil contained the parganas of [[Bisalpur]] and Maurari, which afterward become a single area; Jahanabad was joined with Richha to form tehsil Pareva & Pilibhit with Bilheri, the HQ being at Pilibhit. In 1851 Bilheri and the other tarai pargana were taken under direct management and in 1863 Richha was attached to the new Baheri tehsil, pargana Jahanabad being assigned to Pilibhit which also received [[Puranpur]] on its transfer in 1865. The latter, in 1871, a became subtehsil dependent on Pilibhit. The promotion of [[Puranpur]] into a full tehsil occurred in 1879, while [[Bisalpur]] throughout remained a separate subdivision. Thus the area is now divided into three tehsils and four parganas. [[Puranpur]] & [[Bisalpur]] constituting individual tehsils and parganas & the tehsil of Pilibhit comprising the paraganas of Pilibhit and Jahanabad.<ref>http://pilibhit.nic.in/discover.htm</ref> |

===Tussentaal=== |
|||
'''Rare Historical Facts about Pilibhit''' |
|||
The ''tussentaal'' ("in-between-language") is a primarily informal variety of speech which occupies an intermediate position between regional dialects and the standard language. This ''tussentaal'' incorporates phonetic, lexical and grammatical elements that are not part of the standard language but are drawn from local dialects. |
|||
It is a relatively new phenomenon that has been gaining popularity during the past decades. Some linguists note that it seems to be undergoing a process of (limited) standardisation.<ref>G. Janssens and A. Marynissen, ''Het Nederlands vroeger en nu'' (Leuven/Voorburg 2005), 196.</ref> |
|||
'''1.''' It is believed that Pilibhit was ruled by a ancient king named Mayurdhwaja, who were a great devotee of lord [[Krishna]] and a loyal friend of [[Arjun]], whose name and geography of his kingdom, can be traced in Hindu epic [[Mahabharat]]. |

Flemish (Vlaams in Dutch) is a popular informal term to refer to Belgian Dutch (Belgisch-Nederlands in Dutch), Dutch as spoken in Belgium.[2] Among linguists, 'Flemish' refers to two specific dialects of Dutch alone, namely East and West Flemish. Occasionally 'Flemish' is used to refer to tussentaal a Dutch sociolect, also spoken in Belgium.
Dutch is the majority language in Belgium, being spoken natively by about 59% of the population. Its various dialects contain a number of lexical and a few grammatical features which distinguish them from the standard language.[3] As in the Netherlands, the pronunciation of Standard Dutch is affected by the native dialect of the speaker.
All Dutch dialects spoken in Belgium (with the exception of East Flemish) are spoken in adjacent areas of the Netherlands as well. At the same time East Flemish forms a continuum with both Brabantic and West Flemish. Standard Dutch is primarily based on the Hollandic dialect (spoken in the Northern Netherlands) and to a lesser extent on Brabantian, which is the most dominant Dutch dialect of the Southern Netherlands and Flanders.
The main difference between Dutch spoken in Belgium and the Netherlands, is that Dutch in Belgium is uses the sound inventory of the Brabantic dialects.[4] which is often called tussentaal ("in-between-language", between dialects and standard Dutch).[5] This evolution is somewhat similar to the emergence of Poldernederlands in the Netherlands, a medium of everyday speech heavily influenced by Hollandic. It should be emphasized that neither Poldernederlands nor Tussentaal are dialects or different standard forms, but sociolects.
Phonological differences
Among Belgian Dutch vowels, the diphthong "ou/au" (as in bout bolt and fauna) is realized as [ɔu], whereas northern Dutch realizes it as [ʌu]. Among consonants, the northern Dutch pronunciation of "w" (as in wang cheek) is [ʋ] or [v], in some southern Dutch dialects it is [β]. Probably the most obvious difference between northern and southern Dutch is the northern voiceless velar fricative [x], which is equivalent in southern Dutch to either a voiced velar fricative [ɣ], most often when spelt "g", or a voiceless palatal fricative /ç/, most often when spelt "ch".
Lexical differences
Belgian Dutch encompasses more French loanwords in everyday vocubulary than Dutch spoken in the Netherlands.[6] At the same time Brabantian, traditionally the most spoken Dutch dialect in Belgium, has had a larger influence on the vocabulary used in Belgium. Examples include beenhouwer (Brabantian) and slager (Hollandic), both meaning butcher; and schoon (Brabantian) vs. mooi (Hollandic) "beautiful". The changes (isoglosses) from northern to southern Dutch dialects are gradual, both vocabulary-wise and phonetically, and the boundaries do not coincide with territorial borders.
Tussentaal
The tussentaal ("in-between-language") is a primarily informal variety of speech which occupies an intermediate position between regional dialects and the standard language. This tussentaal incorporates phonetic, lexical and grammatical elements that are not part of the standard language but are drawn from local dialects. It is a relatively new phenomenon that has been gaining popularity during the past decades. Some linguists note that it seems to be undergoing a process of (limited) standardisation.[7]
Dutch dialects in Belgium
West-Flemish edition of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Note this is written in the West Flemish dialect of Dutch, not Belgian Dutch, which only differs in pronunciation.
There are four principal Dutch dialects in Flanders: Brabantian, Limburgish, East Flemish, and West Flemish. Linguistically however, Flemish is used as a general term encompassing both East Flemish and West Flemish. Despite the name, Brabantian is the dominant contributor to the tussentaal. Both uses of the term derive from name of the historically most powerful county in the area, the County of Flanders.
