The Hindko language is mainly spoken in the province of Khyber Pukhtunkhaw, Pakistan. It relates to the Indo-Aryan family of languages. This paper focusses on the phonemic and acoustic analysis of Hindko fricatives. The phonemic analysis identifies that Hindko has eight fricatives. The acoustic analysis aims to explore temporal and spectral characteristics of these fricatives. The acoustic analysis discloses that Hindko fricatives are distinguishable on the basis of the temporal properties such as friction duration and spectral cues like turbulence noise.Keywords: Hindko; phonemic; acoustic; temporal properties; spectral cues; friction PovzetekJezik Hindko priprada indo-iranski jezikovni družini in ga govorijo predvsem v pakistanski provinci Khyber Pukhtunkhaw. Ta raziskava se osredotoča na fonemsko in akustično analizo pripornikov Hindka. S fonemskega vidika ima Hindko osem pripornikov, ki so nadalje analizirani z vidika časovnih in spektralnih značilnosti. Akustične analize kažejo, da je mogoče Hindko pripornike razločiti tako glede na njihove časovne značilnosti, kot je na primer trajanje frikcije, ali pa na spektralne značilnosti, kot je na primer turbulentni hrup.
