The Eastern Hindi languages are a branch of the Indo-Aryan language family spoken primarily in Awadh region of Uttar Pradesh, Baghelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh, in Northern and Central India. Eastern Hindi languages evolved from Ardhamagadhi Prakrit, which is thought to be transitional between Sauraseni and Magadhi.

Eastern Hindi languages are primarily spoken in India and Nepal, but also have significant minorities in the Caribbean, Fiji, Mauritius, South Africa, Bangladesh, and Pakistan due to immigration. In India, they are mainly spoken in the Awadh region in eastern Uttar Pradesh, in the Baghelkhand region in northeastern Madhya Pradesh, and in Chhattisgarh.
