'''Khāṣi''' is an [[Indo-Aryan languages|Indo-Aryan]] dialect of [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]], India. It belongs to the [[Western Pahari]] group and is spoken in some of the mountainous areas north of [[Jammu]].<br />
<br />
Its area extends on both sides of the river [[Chenab]]: to the north this includes the Panj Gabbar region comprising the five valleys of Arnās–Bamhāg, Gool, Gulābgaṛh, Māhore and Budhal. To the south of the Chenab, it is spoken in the Bamhāg-Pancheri block, as well as a number of villages between Arnas and Dubli Gali. Its language neighbours are [[Kashmiri language|Kashmiri]] to the north, [[Sarazi language|Sarazi]] to the east, [[Dogri]] to the south, and [[Pahari-Pothwari|Pahari]] to the west.{{sfn|Kaul|2006|pp=31, 175–77}}<br />
<br />
The total number of speakers is unknown, but is likely that a substantial proportion of the census figures for "Pahari" in these districts represent speakers of Khāṣi.{{sfn|Kaul|2006|pp=177–78}}<br />
