Abstract In this study, we will attempt to provide an analysis of the development of Khortha. The purpose of this study is to highlight the historical development of Khortha, covering its origins, genetic affiliation, etymology, the ways in which Khortha is influenced by other languages. The primary goal of this work is to examine the history of Khortha and identify its origins. Khortha is the language that is most often spoken in the Indian state of Jharkhand. According to the 2011 census, approximately 8.04 million people speak Khortha. The spoken language of the tribes of Jharkhand is primarily Khortha. Speakers of Khortha demonstrate characteristics of multilingualism when they interact with members of other communities. However, scholars hold a variety of perspectives on its origin and identity. This research contributes to a better understanding of the changes occurring in Khortha and the ways in which they are influenced by the Indo-Aryan language spoken in Jharkhand. Data collection has been achieved through the use of both primary and secondary sources. Additionally, interview techniques are used to enquire about a variety of conversational and casual themes. As a result, the present research contributes to a better understanding of the cultural history and linguistic diversity of Jharkhand and plays a role in documenting the Khortha language community.
