Sorry, i disagree! "Pure" Urdu is completely different then "Pure" hindi! In Urdu lang., there are tons of persian/arabic terms vs Hindi with Sanskrit. We (general public) speak a blend of hindi/urdu + regional slangs! Just read any urdu poetry and compare it with hindi poetry - they r totally different! Its not just in the written format!
If you get in bed with government, you should expect to walk funny the next day!!!!!!!!!!! |

I completely agree with Sajjad. Urdu, formerly called 'Rekhta', was a langauge born in the market! It was spoken mainly by Afghan soldires..., had lot of vocabulary from Arabic, Persian, Punjabi, among others. Mir Taqi Mir (the wrter of the famous ghazal, 'Faqiirana aaye sada kar chale') is credited with formalizing the langauge. I found this info on Net, but that is certainly not too close to what I read earlier. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urdu |
