User:The Ultimate has recently moved this article from Bhadrawahi language to Bhaderwahi. Is there any reason to prefer this spelling? Most of the standard tertiary sources (none of them in-depth) use Bhadrawahi, there's a recently published grammar that spells it Bhadarwahi, but Bhaderwahi is nowhere to be seen. – Uanfala (talk) 22:38, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
The word Bhaderwahi refers to anything that belongs to
Bhaderwah. The suffix i is an indication of the that. Similarly the language spoken in or near by Bhaderwah is also called Bhaderwahi. The actual pronounciation of the word forces us to write it as either Bhadarwahi or Bhaderwahi. If it's written as Bhadrawahi, it completely distorts the real language as I myself am a native speaker of this language. Tough it can be written both as Bhaderwahi or Bhadarwahi but I've preferred Bhaderwahi because it is used mostly when used officially. Below is the link from the official site of Bhaderwah which uses the same spelling throughout.

Bhaderwahi → Bhadarwahi – This is the more common spelling in the literature on the language. See also the discussion above. – Uanfala (talk) 12:47, 12 November 2018 (UTC) – Uanfala (talk) 12:47, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
