A similar doubt had occured to me while in school and I had asked my Hindi
teacher about it. He said that both these languages had evolved from a language called Dakkani ( a spoken language on the Deccan plateau ). The Moghul scholars gave this language the Persian script, while some others gave it the Devanagri script ( i.e. the script used for Sanskrit ). As the script changed the basic language diverged towards Persian and Sanskrit forming Urdu and Hindi respectively. There is little difference between the two languages but this difference is evident when the pure versions of the languages are compared. What is generally spoken however is a mix of both languages known as Hindustani. QUOTE The unification would require a minor change of adding 'Z' in the Hindi alphabet. Well happy to say that z as in 'Naaz' can be written by adding a dot below the 'ja' consonant in Hindi. |
