Book Description
Excerpt from Dictionary, Hindustani and English The Hindustani or Urdu is peculiarly the language of the Muhammadan population of Hindustan, and is hence the most widely diffused of all the Indian dialects. The Bengali, Hindui, and Marhatta, although each the Vernacular idioms of many millions of men, are yet circumscribed within the limits of particular provinces, beyond which they are hardly known. But the Musalmans have spread over the whole of India, from north to south, and from east to west. They form a considerable proportion of the population of all the large towns, many of which indicate by their names a Muhammadan origin, as Shah-jahan-abad, (Delhi, ) Haider-abad, Murshid-abad, Ghazi-pur, &c. The Urdu is, moreover, as the name implies, the camp language of India; a circumstance easily accounted for by the long supremacy of the Musalmans over this country. The origin and structure of this dialect may be briefly explained. The language spoken by the Hindu population of the North West Provinces at the time of the first Muhammadan invasion, was the Hindui or Hindi, a language entirely distinct from the Urdu, although often confounded with it. That of the conquerors was the Persian. As the Musalmans settled in India, their descendants adopted the grammatical forms of the Hindui, retaining, in great measure, their own Persian and Arabic words. Hence the Urdu is often called the Rekhta, or Mixed language. Let the reader examine any good Urdu work, (as the Khirad Afroz for example, ) and he will find that almost all the Nouns and Adjectives are Arabic or Persian. The Pronouns and Post-positions, the Auxiliary Verbs, as Kama, Hona, &c., the Numerals, most of the Adverbs, many of the Prepositions, with a few nouns and adjectives, and a small number of simple Verbs, are from the Hindui. From this statement it is obvious that the relation of the Urdu to the Persian is precisely the same as that of the Persian to the Arabic. We may further illustrate the matter by a reference to the English. The language spoken in England at the time of the Norman invasion was the Anglo-Saxon, that of the conquerors, the Norman-French.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Dictionary, Hindustani and English: With a Copious Index, Fitting the Work to Serve, Also, as a Dictionary of English and Hindustani But, though a great part of the materials of this publication was taken from the stock which Capt. Taylor and Dr. Hunter had, collected, yet such alterations and additions were made as could not be attributed to those authors. Certain portions of their work'were, for the sake of brevity, remodeled and curtailed; a different method of denoting. Oriental vocal sounds by roman letters was adopted; and additions of words, which a farther acquaintance with the language proved to be necessary, were abundantly made in the first edition as well as in the subsequent one of 1820 to this third edition, moreover, besides a still greater increase of words in the body of the work, a copious Index is subjoined, by means of which the publication will prove well fitted to serve, also, as a reversed, or English and Hindustani Dictionary.
