What language is spoken in Rajasthan?

Last verified/updated: 2026-10-02. Confirm with the official source before you rely on it.

Quick answer

Hindi is the official language of the state administration. In homes you will hear Rajasthani varieties such as Marwari, Mewari, Dhundhari, Shekhawati, Hadoti and Wagdi. English works unevenly: well in tourist offices, less in a village shop.

Detailed answer

Whether Rajasthani is listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution is a central legal fact. Do not freeze it from an old textbook. Check the Constitution or a current official list if an exam asks.

A few words — khamma ghani as a respectful greeting in Marwar, padharo mhare des as welcome — carry warmth if said plainly, not as a performance. The vocabulary explorer has a short, careful list.
