Re: Urdu is the same as Hindi [SPLIT FROM: Making Arabic our National Language]
lets keep it simple -urdu is not hindi
urdu has same grammar as hindi but 60% of urdu words are persian and hindi has majority sanskrit vocubulary
the language you hear on TV is called hindustani which is similar to urdu and hindi combined-but mostly urdu coz it sounds better
here is an example of PURE HINDI AND PURE URDU AND FARSI
