Garmsiri[1] orBandari[2]is a Persian[3][4][5] andSouthwestern Iranian language spoken in the southeast of Iran inHormozgan andKerman. It consists of closely related dialects extending from the Halilrud river valley in the north down to the Strait of Hormuz in the south.[6]The language is closely related toBashkardi,Larestani andKumzari. It forms a transitional dialect group to northwestern IranianBalochi, due to intense areal contact.
Garmsiri varieties and locations include:[2]
Kahnuji and Jirofti are close, but Jirofti has been influenced by Kermani Persian, which is replacing it.
Pahlavani is spoken by an ethnicallyIndo-Aryan (Koli) people. Its vocabulary is somewhat different, some reportedly modified through reversals of syllables and the like. 'Pahlavani' is theendonym.
Rudani has many words and grammatical structures fromSouthern Balochi. Grammatically, Korta is similar to other varieties of Bandari, but its vocabulary is closer to that of Balochi. It is now moribund.
