Khowar also known as Chitrali, is an Indo-Aryan language of the Dardic branch, spoken by 400,000 people in Chitral, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, in Ghizer district of Gilgit-Baltistan (including Yasin Valley, Phandar, Ishkoman and Gupis), and in parts of Upper Swat. Speakers of Khowar have also migrated heavily to Pakistan's major urban centres with Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi, having sizeable
populations. It is spoken as a second language in the rest of Gilgit and Hunza. There are believed to be small numbers of Khowar speakers in Afghanistan, China, Tajikistan and Istanbul.
