Which language should you learn if you're travelling to India, Pakistan, and Nepal? In my opinion, Hindi, and here's why: it's the most spoken language in India, it's the third most spoken language in the world, and you can use it in Pakistan and read signs in Nepal with it! If you want to learn Hindi, I have a free guide up on my blog https://blog.karlrock.com/how-to-learn-hindi-faster-than-i-did/. Hindi, Urdu, and Nepali are three distinct languages spoken in South Asia. Hindi is one of the official languages of India and is spoken by over 500 million people worldwide. It is written in the Devanagari script and has many dialects, with Standard Hindi being the most widely used. Urdu is the national language of Pakistan and is also spoken in India and other South Asian countries. It is written in the Perso-Arabic script and has significant vocabulary and grammar overlap with Hindi. Nepali is the official language of Nepal and is also spoken in India and Bhutan. It is written in the Devanagari script and is closely related to Hindi, with many shared words and phrases. Despite their similarities, these three languages (Hindi, Urdu, and Nepali) have distinct characteristics and cultural significance, reflecting the diverse linguistic and cultural heritage of the region.
