Hindi
Modern Standard Hindi (Template:Lang, Template:Translit),[1] commonly referred to as Hindi, is the standardised variety of the Hindustani language written in Devanagari script. It is the official language of India alongside English and the lingua franca of North India. Hindi is considered a Sanskritised register[2] of the Hindustani language, which itself is based primarily on the Khariboli dialect of Delhi and neighbouring areas.[3][4][5] It is an official language in nine states and three union territories and an additional official language in three other states.[6][7][8][9] Hindi is also one of the 22 scheduled languages of the Republic of India.[10]
