Basics of Urdu Language

Urdu is a beautiful and expressive language spoken mainly in Pakistan and India. It is the national language of Pakistan and an important language in many Indian states. Urdu developed during the Mughal era as a mix of Persian, Arabic, Turkish, and local Indian languages. It is written in a flowing and elegant script called Nastaliq, which comes from Persian calligraphy. With over 230 million speakers worldwide, Urdu is more than just a way to communicate—it represents the culture and history of its speakers.

Urdu has a rich tradition of literature, especially in poetry and storytelling. Even in modern times, Urdu remains popular in movies, songs, and social media. Its mix of history, beauty, and adaptability keeps it an important part of South Asian culture.

Urdu language contains 36 consonants and 11 vowels. Urdu numbers follow the decimal point numerical system just like in English.
