In the Balochi language, the traditional term for Sindhis is Jadgal and Jamote. The historical spelling 'Sind' (from the Perso-Arabic سند) was discontinued in 1988 by an amendment passed in the Sindh Assembly, and is now spelt 'Sindh.' Hence, the term 'Sindhi' was also introduced to replace 'Sindi'. 20th century Western scholars such as George Abraham Grierson believed that Sindhi descended specifically from the Vrācaḍa dialect of Apabhramsha. The name Sindhi is derived from the Sanskrit Sindhu which translates as 'river' or 'sea body' and Greeks used to call it 'Indos' which are names given to the Indus River and the surrounding region, which is where Sindhi is spoken.

Despite being geographically separated, Sindhis still maintain strong ties to each other and share similar cultural values and practices. The Sindhi diaspora is growing around the world, especially in the Middle East, owing to better employment opportunities.

Pakistani Sindhis are predominantly Muslim with a smaller Sikh and Hindu minority that are concentrated mostly in the eastern Sindh, whereas Indian Sindhis are predominantly Hindu with a sizeable Sikh, Jain and Muslim minority.

Īfter the partition of British India in 1947, many Sindhi Hindus and Sindhi Sikhs migrated to the newly independent Dominion of India and other parts of the world some Sindhis fled and formed diasporas settling around countries like England and United States. Having been isolated throughout history unlike its neighbours, Sindhi culture has preserved its own uniqueness. The historical homeland of Sindhis is bordered by the southeastern part of Balochistan, the Bahawalpur region of Punjab and the Kutch region of Gujarat. Sindhis ( Sindhi: سنڌي‎ ( Perso-Arabic) सिन्धी ( Devanagari) / ˈ s ɪ n d iː z/ sˈɪndhiː, romanised as sin-dhee) are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group who speak the Sindhi language and are native to the Sindh province of Pakistan.
