Marwari is spoken by about 9 million people. India's 2011 census. Like the other Rajasthani varieties it is often returned as Hindi, so the real figure is higher.
On our measured language map, its closest relatives are Awadhi, Hindi and Bhojpuri. If you speak one of those, much of the vocabulary will feel familiar from day one.
Structurally, objects come before their verbs, where English puts them after; it is written in the Devanagari script, and the course teaches the writing system letter by letter with pronunciation shown while you learn.
Every lesson is built from 2,000 real Marwari sentences, aligned with their translations word by word and piece by piece, so you always see how the sentence actually works instead of memorizing flashcards. The grammar is discovered from the sentences themselves, 1,308 patterns so far, and a spaced-repetition quiz teaches it in the order that unlocks the most of the language first. Our measured estimate for reaching conversational level from English is about 1,621 hours of study. Read how it works.
Speaker figures follow Ethnologue and national censuses, rounded. The difficulty estimate is calibrated against U.S. Foreign Service Institute data.
