Description
Summary:Language has been conceived to be the most effective medium for communicating one's ideas and emotions to others. The journey of any language in order to earn recognition undergoes rigorous changes and testing through ages. Language of any particular place or region which is popularly known as the "Dialect" takes the form of a complete expression only after it becomes customary to the lives of the people. The process of getting accustomed in the social order includes its travel through the folk literature, indigenous tales and the travelogues native to their places. This work would accentuate how the folklores in the provinces of Jharkhand and West Bengal, inspite of being geographically divided hold on to have some common features. Their similar historical backgrounds have laid the foundation for many local dialects to not only thrive and develop but to maintain its strong roots till today. Keywords: Tribes, Dialect, Folklore, Mythos, Philosophies.
