Hindi is not a direct descendant of Sanskrit or any Indian Language. Instead, it is a dialect of Hindustani Language, which itself is direct descendant of Persian Language. Therefore it is requested to not to create false belief of Hindi being a direct descendent of Sanskrit and of even, being a full fledged language Sarangbsr (talk) 14:47, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hindi is not a direct descendant of Sanskrit. There is no relation between Sanskrit and Hindi/Urdu(Collectively Hindustani Language). Sarangbsr (talk) 15:10, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hindi/Urdu (Collectively One and only language called Hindustani) didn't used to exist 200 years ago. Also, Hindi contains only 20% of Sanskrit Vocabulary. Also It is requested to watch the Video on Hindustani Language from the YouTube Channel named LangFocus. Sarangbsr (talk) 15:14, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hindi and Sanskrit have nothing to do with morality or origin. Hindi did not originate from Sanskrit. Khariboli dialect of Hindustani language has been given the name Hindi , which was influenced by Sanskrit language but not was a direct descendent of Sanskrit Language Sarangbsr (talk) 15:21, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

How Manak Hindi has Persian or Arabic words?[edit]

Please give us 10 words where Manak Hindi has Persian/Arabic words exclusively. Otherwise please remove the Persian influence. @Foreverknowledge: Yeshehat (talk) 19:16, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Try looking through the pages of a standard Hindi-English dictionary. You will be pleasantly surprised to see hundreds of Persian/Arabic words included! Foreverknowledge (talk) 22:20, 13 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Introduction[edit]

The article says:
"As a linguistic variety, Hindi is the fourth most-spoken first language in the world, after Mandarin, Spanish and English. Hindi alongside Urdu as Hindustani is the third most-spoken language in the world, after Mandarin and English."
The second sentence contradicts the first one. If Hindustani is the third most-spoken first language, it comes after Mandarin and Spanish according to the first sentence. 2A02:A210:2145:7E00:8460:741C:F98:73F1 (talk) 03:52, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
After reading the sentences a few more times, the source of confusion becomes clear. The first sentence is about L1 speakers. The second sentence is about L1 + L2 speakers. Please reformulate the sentences to make them understandable at first reading (by a layman).Reply[reply]
