Badeshi language
Badeshi is an almost extinct unclassified Indo-Iranian language spoken in Pakistan. Its distinctiveness is unconfirmed; it may be a family name. In 2014 "Ethnologue, Languages of the World" stated Badeshi had not been spoken for at least three generations but in 2018 the BBC found three men who could still speak the language. Muhammad Zaman Sagar, a field linguist connected to the Forum for Language Initiative, has worked on this language.

They said that the Torwali language had taken over from Badeshi in their village. The men also had worked in tourist areas in the Swat valley where they spoke Pashto. Some phrases of Badeshi were:
