    Thank you, good and useful lessons. ...All these letteres are for arabic words which entered or have borrowed by non-arabic muslim peoples like Persians and Afghani (Pashtun and Tajik) and Pakistani peoples,, these letters I mean (ث ح ذ ص ض ط ظ ع غ ق ) but we the Kurds (in Iraqi and Iranian Kurdistans) write only some of them like ( ح، ع، غ، ق ) the others we write and pronounce like (s, z, t) as such: ث، ص = س،،، ذ ظ = ز، . Persian language has a lot of arabic words, I think 60%, they destroyed their beautiful language during centuries,, and this process continues till to day,, they throw out their words and adopt arabic ones!!! but we the Kurds, we translate arabic words into kurdish words and invent kurdish for those words which have not equivalent word in our language, that is why I thing that only 5% of our language is composed of arabic words,, but in terms of person names, we have enormous arabic/islamic firstnames !

    Thank you.
    From India 🇮🇳
    Urdu is ultimately an Indian language but our government is not doing anything to promote it.
    It’s better for Indians to learn Urdu from a young age. Learning Urdu script will open up Persian and Arabic for Indians. Hindi can remain official language but I just feel that Indians aren’t really taking advantage of being capable of learning Arabic and Persian quickly if they ever needed to.

    • @KillerofWestoids
      @KillerofWestoids 2 роки тому +5

      @BTOMBRANDbaby Not similar but almost the same.
      As an Indian, i would have no problems in understanding a pakistani and he wouldn't have any problems in understanding me.
      The only difference is in the script.
      Hindi is written in the devangari script and Urdu is written in the perso Arabic script.
