Maharashtri Konkani or Konkan Marathi, is a group of Marathi-Konkani dialects, spoken in the Konkan, that differ from Marathi.[2][3] George Abraham Grierson, a British Indian linguist of the colonial era referred to these dialects as the Konkan Standard of Marathi in order to differentiate it inside the Konkani language group.[4]
