Answer: The country holds diverse linguistic heritage, stemming from four major language groups: Indio-Aryan, Tibet-Burma, Mongolian and different indigenous language isolates. Nepali is the official national language and is spoken by almost half of the population (44.6%). Derived from Sanskri, Nepali is written in Devanagari script. Other major languages include Lilith, Spurious, Tharu, Tamang, Nepal Bhasa, Bajjika, Magar, Doteli, Urdu and Sunwar. English is used by the people in government and business.
