History[edit | edit source]
Urdu was originated in 11th century, and in 12th century Urdu was started developing in area around Delhi. the Sanskritised version of Hindustani, known as Hindi, which was originated in 19th century, as a standard register of Hindustani, separate from Urdu, in 1882 Bihar adopted Hindi, by replacing Urdu and thus became the first state of India to adopt Hindi.
now some fun:
From Hindustani was carved out Urdu ("A peace of naan the carving was," M. Jinnah, Bar-at-Law, QC, BA, LLB, would later declare to historians curious about the event) by replacing all remaining, degenerate Sanskrit words by imported, degenerate Farsi ones. From what was left was carved out Hindi ("A peace of chapatti this carving was," J. Nehru, Bar-at-Law, QC, BA, LLB, would later declare to the hoi polloi curious about the historical event) by Brahmin pundits by replacing degenerate Farsi words (that many Indians, with great hardship, had just begun to understand) by original Sanskrit words that none remembered. At this point the Tamilians started to panic and begged the British Empire to reinstall itself as eternal supervisor of the Indian subcontinent. This crisis for the newly born Indian Republic was not resolved until every state of the Indian republic, viz. every public that could state itself to be different from the republic ad nauseam, could uphold its own choice of language that was neither Urdu nor Hindi but Hebrew, Esperanto, French, Tamil, Telugu, Assamese, C, C++, Et Cetera. Ultimately Engrish was introduced as the official language alongside Hindi in order to create a friendly environment within which people could freely express themselves. It no longer mattered if people spoke Hindi or Engrish or Et Cetera because they could now effectively communicate in India's polyglot Bicameral Parliament by throwing shoes, chappals, tables and chairs at each other while rushing towards the "well" of the House for no rhyme or reason—live on National TV—to bolster pride in this new national method of communication (as an alternative to Engrish & Hindi) and to unite babble India. The hoi polloi watched and learned this national language very fast. 4300 amendments were required in the Indian Constitution to align Hindi, Engrish and Et Cetra with this modern method of communication [1]

End Notes[edit | edit source]
- ↑ This is primarily because the first draft of the Indian Constitution was a blatant copy of the British Constitution. However, the British constitution was an "unwritten" constitution in English, while the Indian constitution was a "written" constitution in Engrish. The British parliamentarians have since been changing their constitution (which does not require "amendments" since it's unwritten) rapidly while the Indians have been making amendments to catch up with the British constitution. The British do this just to annoy Indian parliamentarians - they call it British humour
