Regional language

Okay, so you know how people all over the world speak different languages, right? But even within a country, there can be different types of languages that are specific to certain regions. These are called regional languages.

For example, in some parts of India, people speak Hindi, while in other parts, they might speak Tamil or Telugu. These languages are all different regional languages.

Sometimes, people who speak different regional languages may have trouble understanding each other, even if they both speak the same official language of the country. That's because each regional language has its vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation that can be very different from other languages.

However, it's important to respect and preserve these regional languages because they often hold a lot of cultural and historical significance. They are a vital part of a region's identity and heritage, and they help to make our world a more diverse and interesting place.
