Officially known as Modern Standard Urdu, Urdu belongs to the system of new Indian languages. Based on one of Hindi’s dialects, Urdu obtained a significant amount of Arabic-Persian influence. Founded in 8th century, spoken Urdu is frequently called Hindustani.
The total number of Urdu speakers in the world exceeds 100 million, with 65 million native speakers and 40 million people for whom Urdu is a second language. Along with English, Urdu is an official language in Pakistan, despite the fact that only 7% of the population considers it as a native language. Urdu is also among India’s 23 official languages. In India about 50 million people speak Urdu fluently.
Urdu uses the Arabic alphabet with additional symbols partially taken from the Persian writing system and others partially created especially for the transmission of peculiar Urdu sounds.
Urdu is highly systematic language. A challenge may occur with learning the verbs that have two forms, formal and informal, and nouns that have either feminine or masculine gender.
Literary Urdu is a hybrid of two languages—Hindi and Persian. Due to this hybridization, there are a lot of names, verb forms and conjunctions that belong to both Hindi and Pakistani. In Urdu there are duplicated words for almost every definition (with Persian words used for the high style). In Urdu a phrase can be built with the help of either the principles of Hindi or Persian syntax.

There are many theories to explain the origin of the Urdu language. The word “Urdu” itself is a derivative from the Turkish word “Ordu” which means “camp.” Urdu has been historically associated with Muslims living in the Indian subcontinent territory known as Hindustan.
After the 700s, for almost a century, the territory was conquered by different Arab, Turkish and Persian armies. Such turns in the history gave rise to Urdu language.
In the initial period of its development (8th-16th centuries), Urdu was used in Deccan by Muslims who conquered India. With the strengthening of Muslim power, Urdu became a trade, military and administrative language, which spread all over India and over some regions of Central Asia.
For almost 700 years, starting with the year 1000, the official language was Persian, which was the language of education and literature, as well as the language of the government among Muslims of Central Asia.
In the 17th century, Urdu penetrated the literature of the Muslims of North India, who previously used only the Persian language. However, after the year 1700, Urdu slowly began to dominate. Currently, Urdu is considered the literary language of all Indian Muslims.
