NamesThe name Gorum most likely comes from an animal/people prefix go- and root -rum meaning 'people', and is possibly related to the ethnonym Remo (Anderson 2008:381). Parengi, or Parenga, is of obscure origin. StatusGorum is 60% endangered, it is very likely that it might soon be extinct majority of the people under 30 years cannot understand the language. In addition those who know it are likely to deny knowing it.[3] This language seems to have been first researched in 1933, that being the earliest scholarly reference.[4]OriginsWhile Gorum is a member of the Munda family, it has taken some things from Dravidian, a language spoken nearby. For example, they tend to doubly inflect on certain types of AVC structures. Another derivation from the Munda language is the use of some Glottals being "creeky voiced"[5] DistributionGorum speakers are located in the following areas of eastern India (Anderson 2008:381).
Gutob is spoken to the north of Gorum, and Gta to the west of Gorum.
