    Problems with Familial Classification

    Labelling the Dardic languages as a linguistic sub-family poses a few problems since these languages are not related to each other genetically besides being Indo-Iranian. The term Dardic is thus more of a geographical reference to a collection of more or less Indo-Iranian Language Isolates than an actual familial designation. Their relationship to the other subfamilies of the Indo-Iranian is not yet settled, though some linguistics texts tend to classify some of them as a sub group of Indo-Aryan languages.
