  • I suppose but u also have to take the plethora of words that exist in one and not the other and different dialects E.g the word for family is "parivaar" in hindi and "khaandaan" in Urdu God is "bhagwan" in hindi and "Rabb" in urdu etc etc I'm not sure about Hindi but I think it derives from Sanskrit. but Urdu was called "Rekhta" before as it's parent language . The word Urdu comes from the Turkish word for army "Ordu". Urdu was formed after an amalgation of Arabic and Persian and over the years as soldiers from different ethnicities came under one banner in the subcontinent it picked up vocab from old Hindi as well and due to the centuries of living along side Hindi speakers, alot of words are understood between each other. If someone was to speak Rekhta or even "pure" Urdu today as how or is in old poetry, as it was in the beginning, I'm sure no hindi speaker will understand and even modern Urdu speakers will take a minute

  • They're different languages yes, but for spoken they're almost interchangeable. Anyone who speaks Urdu will understand spoken Hindi, but each language has specific words unique to their vocabulary. Their vastly different in written too, Hindi is written in sanskrit script and Urdu is written in Arabic script. I speak Urdu but can freely communicate with Hindi speakers and vice versa but cannot read Hindi

  • No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    Any people who speak Urdu/Hindi on Lemmy?

  • I wear a black ring with the initials of a person who I thought would be with me till the day I die. They left me a bit ago but I still wear this as the only gift I ever got from this person. I hope they're doing good wherever and however they are

  • Same shit happened to me it's why I'm here, ended up being banned on even my 3 year old account... As far as I reckon it's a device ban,so if you really want to keep using reddit try it on a different phone or computer Although I'd love if someone figured it out how exactly it works because I kept getting shadowbanned as well

  • I once had someone I knew pull a gun on me when I was 14 and had to fight it off them before they could switch off the safety. 11 years later, I still get anxious if I'm talking to someone and I can't see both their hands, they have their hands in their pockets etc until both hands are in sight
