About Hindi

 

There are around 425 million native speakers of Hindi, with 120 million speaking it as a second language. It is spoken in much of north and central India, and there is a significant number of Hindi speakers in other parts of the world including in South Africa, Fiji and Nepal. Hindi is not as hard to learn as you might think – you’ll find many familiar words in English which are either Hindi or of Hindi origin, while Hindi itself also uses lots of English words.
