I'm a bit baffled as to why you think this would make things much easier? If you want to learn Urdu, which uses Arabic script, then you should learn to write Urdu, but that is not then learning Hindi (spoken along with written), nor is it the meaning I see in your reading.The Arabic script would make things much easier, useful hint!
Because I already know the Arabic script.I'm a bit baffled as to why you think this would make things much easier?
Well, then maybe you should learn Urdu. Good idea. As someone said, it is the same or very similar to spoken Hindi, but the writing is different.Because I already know the Arabic script.
Hey Olga, Devanagari is the script used for Hindi (and Sanskrit, maybe a few other Indic languages). Like this:I M confused.
Is Devanagari Hindi or Urdu?
Devanagari is the Hindi script, and Hindi and Urdu are almost the same speaking language, as Viru has explained in the posts #4 and #9.I M confused.
Is Devanagari Hindi or Urdu?
According to my dad, (I don't know much about Indian history), the Persians/Mughals that invaded in the Middle Age period didn't speak Hindi (called Hindustani at the time I think) and so created a blend language written in their native script (Arabic) to make it easier to communicate with the locals.I remember my Sanskrit teacher saying that he thought Hindi and Urdu were really the same language, just a distinction made for political reasons
