Hindi, an Indo-Aryan language, is spoken by over 600 million people, primarily in India and parts of Fiji, Nepal, and Mauritius. It uses the Devanagari script, known for its phonetic accuracy. Hindi grammar features gendered nouns (masculine and feminine), verb conjugations based on tense, mood, and person, and a flexible word order (typically subject-object-verb). Its vocabulary draws from Sanskrit, with loanwords from Persian, Arabic, and English due to historical influences. As an official language of India, alongside English, and widely used in Bollywood, media, and literature, Hindi holds significant cultural and political importance in South Asia. Romanization is enabled for Hindi on this platform in addition to the original script. Romanization is the representation of a non-Latin script language in the Latin alphabet to aid pronunciation and understanding for those unfamiliar with the original script.
