ダルド語群
The lexicon of Gāndhārī is also limited by its textual usage; it is still possible to determine unusual forms, such as Gāndhārī forms that show commonalities with forms in modern Indo-Iranian languages of the area, notably the Dardic languages. An example is the word for sister, which is a descendant of Old Indo-Aryan "svasṛ-" as in the Dardic languages, whereas all the Indo-Aryan languages have replaced that term with reflexes of "bhaginī".
