Gujarati (ગુજરાતી) is an Indo-Aryan language native to the Indian state of Gujarat where it is the official language of the state. It is notable that Gujarati was the mother tongue of both Mahatma Gandhi and Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The Persian language has had a major influence on Gujarati, in addition to the two languages sharing common Indo-European roots. The Persian language (Farsi) is classified as one of the Western Iranian languages. In addition to Gujarati, Persian has had a huge impact on many other languages and cultures, mainly in the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia and holds official status is Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan.

@@malikjibranliaqatawan7076 actually not. It's because the North Indian languages and Persian are part of the Indo-Iranian subgroup of the Indo-European language family. Words like garm(Persian) and garam(Indo-Aryan) are words that are native to each, not adopted. There are thousands of examples. The numbers are an obvious example of this. Yes, the Mughals did introduce Modern Persian vocabulary to the Indian languages but other than that their similarities are from their common origin.

@@sayeedhusseinsadat3284 i guess that's what the Arabs say about the Persian language. When i lived in Saudi Arabia that was their opinion of Persian. And honestly it was hard to defend because of the copious amount of vocabulary that Persian has adopted from Arabic. I dont think that we can equate language and culture so deeply especially when languages adopt words only. Persian culture is sure not the same as Arabic culture yet there is a large percentage of words adopted from Arabic. But these are just words. The same goes for the Persian words that came into Indian languages. English is a highly Latinized language regarding academic terminology etc compared to other Germanic languages but still remains a Germanic language. The culture of England is by no means synonymous with the the cultures of Latin's modern day descendants. My point is that let's not jump to conclusions about cultural heritage etc because no culture has been intact 100%. That's just an illusion.

[@tenorlove]

@@kumarnavneet8968 As are Kurdish, Pashto, Avestan, Tajik, and Ossetian. The Indo-Iranian branch split off from Proto-Indo-European, then the Indo- and Iranian parts split again. At the time of that split, the Indo- part was represented by Sanskrit/Prakrits. The modern languages of India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh derived from Prakrits, which was the colloquial, spoken version of Sanskrit. In this respect, the Indian subcontinent paralleled the Roman Empire, where classical Latin was used for state and religion, while the people spoke something called Vulgar Latin, which evolved into the Romance languages of today. Today's Romance languages have about the same degree of mutual intelligibility as modern Indo-Iranian languages do, and even more so in writing, because they all use the same alphabet.

I think my mother tongue Marathi is believed to have 30% words from Persian. However, it's also believed that the roots of all those words again go back to Sanskrit.. An example is shataranj - the Sanskrit word is Chaturang. Though today we call it "Buddhibal" which sounds more Sanskrit based than Shataranj, which sounds more Persian. Another example is Santoor - the original Sanskrit word is Shatatantri (an instrument of 100 strings). But we all believe that this word has come from a middle Eastern influence.

Most of these words are very recent adoptions from Persian during Mughal rule which is why they sound almost the same. "shatranj" is an Arabic word from the original Sanskrit word "chaturanga" who invented the game and Persian word "chatrang" who probably refined it. Others like "darwaza" have Sanskrit cognates like "dvaar" but North Indian speakers use the Persian word in common speech. A lot of Hindu nationalists want to get rid of the Persian influence from Hindi, but does it really make a big difference if the words are from your mother's sister (Old Iranian) instead of your mother (Sanskrit)?

[@hisham1101]

Ponga Pandit “Nuqta” is an Arabic word. These changes were made after Persian became the language of court under Mughal rule. The Hindi we hear now is not pure Hindi, in pure Hindi “Z” would not exist.

[@hisham1101]

Ponga Pandit I disagree, there is a “Pure Hindi” if you hear a speech given in the U.N. by an Indian, that’s pure Hindi. That’s the Hindi an Urdu speaking person would have immense trouble understanding, if you showed a Hindi speaking person pure Urdu, they too would have trouble understanding. Hindi didn’t have the letter Z or the glyph for it until the Persian vocabulary was baked into Hindi. After Persian vocab became large in Hindi it naturally gained the Z glyph (Just to clarify: in no way am I saying Modern Hindi is bad or worse than pure Hindi, it sounds beautiful just stating that if it wasn’t for the large Persian vocab, Hindi would never have had the Z glyph)

[@Kyan66]

-/:; -/:; no offense but the word Hindi by itself is a persian word comming from Hindustan meaning the land by the river sindh which our ancestors called the subcontinent. So by default india and hindi are exonyms which indicates that theyre not pure.

Many Indian languages besides Urdu/Hindi have a strong relation with Persian. Gujarathi, Punjabi, Marathi have so many words borrowed from Persian that people who speak the languages won't know that this word came from another language. It's a mystery as to why the words are pronounced differently in Iran and in India. e.g. hot is germ in Iran but garm in India. Also, Persian is an Indo-European language. So other Indo-European languages of India find it easy to accept Persian words. It's truly fascinating to see how words travel. Thanks!

Hot isn’t germ in Persian. That word is pronounced “garm” here in Tehran. Persian is my mother tongue. And I don’t believe Sanskrit is the mother of Iranian languages.

We gujartis do use 'Kha' K = ક - neither (kosh કોશ) ❌ nor khosh ખોશ) Kh = ખ - ખુશ ✔ (khush) 2:55 we gujaratis do not use bazaar..It's not Gujarati word actually.. We use Bajaar (બજાર) (It's J not G) (J for Japan) N we do not use Bajaar for shop..We use it for the whole market. 3:05 again the same.. Kharab - ખરાબ ✔ Karab - કરાબ ❌ Richa plz understand wt she is saying..(i guess u replace all the 'Kha' with 'K' ..NO..NO..NO.. We have both the letters in our Alphabet.. 3:28 Raisin..Yes we sometimes use it.. Kishmish.. But it's not the proper Gujarati word. The proper n actual Gujarati word is Daraakh - દરાખ Draaksh - દ્રાક્ષ 5:15 Kharido - ખરીદો ✔ Karido - કરીદો ❌ (Kharido is lyk a command, nt a verb) To buy = kharidvu = ખરીદવું (this is verb) Noun = kharid/kharidi= ખરીદ/ખરીદી 6:04 khoraak - ખોરાક ✔ Khorak - કોરાક ❌ 8:01 Band = બંદ ❌ Bandh = બંધ ✔ Plz don't get offended..
