Q1. Who was the first person to use the word ‘Rajasthani’ for the language of Rajasthan?
Explanation
George Abraham Grierson is credited with using the term ‘Rajasthani’ for the language of Rajasthan in linguistic classification. His work on Indian languages gave systematic recognition to several regional language groups, including Rajasthani. George Lincoln Garryson is not the credited linguist for this usage. George William and George Franklin are also not associated with naming or classifying Rajasthani in this context. Therefore, the official key correctly points to George Abraham Grierson as the first person linked with this term.
