About

Purgi Dictionary

Read full description

This is the first ever Dictionary (multilingual and in digital form) in PURGI, the local Language of Kargil. A first in the 2000 year history of Purgi. This Multi-lingual Dictionary is being launching as a mobile app and it has a collection of over 5000 Purgi words, with many common usage words of Balti and other nearby languages. Multilingual Dictionary would mean that words are Translated from English to Purgi, with translations in Hindi and Urdu as well. And since almost 70% of kargili people do not know Purgi script, the Purgi words are stated in English (Latin script alphabet). This dictionary will help in Linguistic heritage (Documents unique vocabulary and some long lost words), add more Learning resources (Essential tool for language learners, teachers, and researchers) and preserving the Language. This app will also be helpful for tourists visiting this region. Since we are outsiders and there will be many errors in the way the local words are understood and written, Error corrections and also addition of new words will be updated in the upcoming versions. And print version of the Dictionary will be brought out on need basis. This Dictionary took 4 years to complete, with us walking almost 500kms in and around the region and personally visiting 60+ villages of Kargil district to collect the words. And its a gift from us to the People of Kargil. The Purgi Dictionary – a project for the people of Kargil, from Dr. Winsy Abraham and Ruby Joy, Social Volunteers contributing in the field of Education and Overall social development - A life dedicated to Kargil and its children. Features: ► New user interface with Navigation drawer menu. ► No additional font installation required. ► Search option available with dedicated English keyboard. ► Adjustable font size and easy to use interface. ► Night Mode for reading during night time (Good for your eyes) ► Language and letter indexing. ► Swipe functionality for word navigation. Compatibility: The app should run well on devices with iOS version 15.6 or later on iPhone and iPad. Copyright Information: © Dr. Winsy Abraham, 2026
