Hindustani people are a panethnicity primarily living in the Hindi belt region of India, which is located in the Gangetic Plain of North India, between the Himalaya and the Vindhyas, identified as such on one or more of genealogical, linguistic, or cultural grounds. Traditionally, Hindustani or Hindavi identity is primarily linguistic with Hindustanis or Hindavis being those who have the Hindustani language (Hindi/Urdu) and in a broader sense a variety of Hindi as their primary language, mainly residing in the present-day Indian States of Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Haryana Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.〔Hudson, John C., ed., Goode’s World Atlas 20th Edition Chicago, Illinois, USA:2000—Rand McNally Map Page 203 Major Languages of India—map of the ethnolinguistic groups of India〕 in other words, the Hindi belt.〔(Hidu writers constitute an overwhelming numbers of Hindustani people.

The Hindustani or Hindavi people seem to be of ethnolinguistic origin rather than an ethnic group.〔 ==Present circumstances== Although the word "Hindustani" refers to people, it is historically important to understand the complex history, culture, ethos and demography of the subcontinent. Certain groups of Hindustani people have multiple identities, with a more localized prioritized ethnic orientation, for example the Awadhi people, Bagheli people, Bihari people, Brajbhashi people, Bundeli people, Chhattisgarhi people, Garhwali people, Haryanvi people, Kumaoni people, Malvi people, Pahari people, or Rajasthani people, in addition to further tribal, village, and/or religious identities. However, whenever used, it is used to generally denote people whose native language is Hindustani language and in a broader sense a variety of Hindi and belong to certain parts of north India ( i.e. the Hindi belt ) 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hindustani people」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
