WaziristÃÂnà(), also known as Wazirwóla (, meaning "of the Wazirs") and WazirÃÂ, is a central Pashto dialect spoken in North Waziristan and South Waziristan. Waziristani differs in pronunciation and to a much lesser degree in grammar from the other varieties of Pashto.
The Waziristani dialect is similar to the dialect spoken around Urgun (eastern Paktika province) and the Bannuchi dialect of Bannu.
Lorimer states:
Waziristani Pashto is spoken by various tribes, and it is also called Masidwola by the Mahsuds and DÃÂwaá¹Âwóla by the DÃÂwaá¹Â. In the DÃÂwaá¹Âi variety of Wazrisitani the word for ÃÂëà[haáÃÂê] is ÃÂÃÂÃÂà[jije].
The standard Pashto word for "boy", "ÃÂÃÂé" [halÃÂk], is rarely heard in Waziristani, instead, "ÃÂÃÂÃÂéÃÂ" [weá¹Âkai] meaning "little one" is used [from standard: ÃÂÃÂÃÂéà-waá¹Âúkai] . The word "lÃÂshki" [lÃÂÃÂki] is used instead of the standard "ÃÂÃÂ" [lÃÂÃÂ], "a little bit".
