== Loanwords ==
Makrani is notable for being filled with loanwords from other languages. This is primarily seen in Sindhi, while also Persian, Urdu, and [[Arabic]]. Loanwords from Urdu is rather new due to the creation of [[Pakistan]]. Sindhi has been one of the main languages that Makrani uses for loanwords primarily because of the contact between [[Lasi people|Lasi speakers]].<ref>http://prr.hec.gov.pk/jspui/bitstream/123456789/15972/1/Hamid%20ali%20baloch%20balochi%202018%20uni%20of%20balochistan%20quetta.pdf</ref> The Makrani dialect also uses loanwords from the now extinct [[Sidi language]], which was considered a variety of [[Swahili language|Swahili]].
