Urdu

Urdu is a rich, poetic language primarily spoken in Pakistan and parts of India. It evolved from a blend of Arabic, Persian, and local Indian languages, developing around the 6th to 13th centuries. Known for its lyrical quality and expressive vocabulary, Urdu uses a script called Perso-Arabic script, written from right to left. It shares many similarities with Hindi but differs in script and certain vocabulary choices. Urdu is used in literature, poetry, music, and daily communication, symbolizing cultural identity and heritage for millions. It embodies a blend of tradition, artistry, and linguistic depth.
