Hadoti (Kota): This dialect is a sub-dialect of Dhundhari and is spoken in the Hadoti region (South-East Rajasthan). It is known for its distinct grammatical features and was used extensively in the literary works of the poet Suryamal Misran.
Mewati (Alwar–Bharatpur): Spoken in the North-Eastern part of the state, this dialect shows a strong influence of Braj Bhasha due to its proximity to Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. It is the language of the Mewat region.
Dhundhari (Jaipur): Also known as Jaipuri, it is one of the most widely spoken dialects in Central Rajasthan. Historically, it was the official language of the Jaipur princely state and has a rich tradition of saintly literature (like the works of Dadu Dayal).
Mewari (Udaipur): This is the second most important dialect of Rajasthan after Marwari. It is spoken in the Mewar region, which includes Udaipur, Chittorgarh, Rajsamand, and Bhilwara.
