The true origin of the Memoni language is still debated among the historians of the region. Memon people speak the language in different styles or accent due to the influence of other languages in areas of settlement. Basically Memoni language is the mixture of [[Sindhi language|Sindhi]], [[Kutchi language|Kutchi]] and [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]] Languages. Memoni language does not have its alphabetical system of reading and writing, nor having its literature and dictionary. But the language is spoken and inherited by the generations of the Memon people. Due to this reason, Memoni language is differentiated among the speakers in the Memon community. Lately, Haji Mohammed Husein Abdel Kareem Nagani invented the alphabet of Memon language to bring the Memoni language to its highest standard like other major languages in the world.<ref> http://saudigazette.com.sa/article/155700/MWS-honors-inventor-of-Memon-language-alphabets</ref> | The true origin of the Memoni language is still debated among the historians of the region.

The Memon community is generally divided into three major subgroups such as [[Memons (Kathiawar)|Kathiawari Memons]] (Speak the Memoni language) [[Sindhi Memons]] (Speak the [[Sindhi language]]) and [[Kutchi Memons]] (Speak the [[Kutchi language]]). Memons originating in [[Kathiawar]] region are simply called [[Memons (Kathiawar)|Kathiawari ''Memons'']] and they speak the ''Memoni'' language. Memon people from this particular region were largely Muslims that followed the [[Hanafi|Hanafi Islam]]. | The Memon community is generally divided into three major subgroups such as [[Memons (Kathiawar)|Kathiawari Memons]] (Speak the Memoni language) [[Sindhi Memons]] (Speak the [[Sindhi language]]) and [[Kutchi Memons]] (Speak the [[Kutchi language]]).
