Adi, also known as Abor (Abhor, Abor-Miri) and Lhoba (Lho-Pa, Luoba), is a Sino-Tibetan language of the Tani family spoken in Arunachal Pradesh, India.
Dialects
Adi has a number of dialects, including Padam, Minyong, Shimong, Mising (a.k.a. Plains Miri), and Pasi.
History of scholarship
Adi literature has been developed by Christian missionaries since 1900. The missionaries, J. H. Lorrain and F. W. Savidge, published an Abor Miri Dictionary[4] in 1906 with the help of Mupak Mili and Atsong Pertin, considered the fathers of the Adi language or Adi script.[clarification needed][5]
