Abstract
The present paper tries to make a comparative study of the nominal phrases in the Indo-Aryan languages such as Angika, Maithili, Bhojpuri, and Awadhi which have not been attempted together so far. This study attempts to exhibit irregularities, if any, that are found in NPs (nominal phrases) at the structural level in these languages. Apart from these, it explores questions like the types of relative clauses and the different forms or relativizing strategies in Indo-Aryan languages, the function of relative clauses, and different noun positions (functional) which are taken in the manifestation of relativization. This paper tries to validate the hypothesis given by Srivastava (1991) which discussed the pronominal relative/ left adjoined relative clause as the quantificational clause and not as the modifier. Bhojpuri, Awadhi, Maithili, and Angika, belong to the Indo-Aryan family of languages. All these languages cover the northern part of India. While Maithili is a scheduled language spoken in the north-eastern part of Bihar state of India and in the Tarai region of Nepal, Angika has been classified as an endangered Indo-Aryan language spoken in Bihar, West Bengal, and the Jharkhand state of India. Similarly, Bhojpuri is spoken in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Western Bihar, and Jharkhand while Awadhi mostly covers the Awadh region of modern-day Uttar Pradesh and some parts of Nepal. Though most of the typological characteristics of these languages are similar yet the study of RCs makes this study highly fascinating.
