You read those opinion and I gave you facts. Urdu has second most print media publication among Indian languages even though Urdu is not second most spoken languages of India.
Good for you .. hopefully u can atleast revive it and do something for it... except for printing urdu papers for the poorest minority of india.
As long as Bollywood exists, Urdu won't die and will keep on enchanting Indians, Pakistanis and Afghans.

What are the differences between Urdu and hindi? is it just their alphabets?
some people say that they are mutually intelligible, is it right?
How many persian words exist in these two languages?

How many persian words exist in these two languages?
Example (basic):
English: The food was very tasty; can I get some water?
Urdu: Khana bohat lazeez tha; kya thoda paani milega?
Hindi: Bhojan adhikh swadhisht tha; krupaya thoda jal denge?
LMAO... just bcoz of copying music and Pak singers? lmao.. im talkin abt literature .. anyways.. lets not screw the thread..
Hindi: khana bahut swadisht tha, kya thoda paani milega? (Both Khana and Paani are native Indian words).
Water is also called "aab" .. in hindi its "jal"...girl = doshiza hind=kaniya,elaan = proclaimation; jazbaa = feeling; ham-dardii = sympathy, son in urdu : sahabzadeh in hindi = putra?..daughter : urdu=dukhtar .. hindi = suputri?
Im not an expert in hindi though
Vernacular of Hindi and Urdu is same. Urdu uses lots of Persian-Arabic words, Hindi avoid using Persian-Arabic words instead prefer Sanskrit words. Because of our film industry, every Indian is aware of both Hindi-Urdu to some extent and since Pakistanis too see Indian movies so they too know Hindi.

Thanks guys.
So it seems that they are very close. but they have their own differences in choosing words.
So, how much of time takes for a persian speaking person to learn Urdu , and Hindi? what about learning hindi alphabets?
