हिन्दुस्तानी (नस्तालीक़: ہندوستانی, अन्तरराष्ट्रीय ध्वन्यात्मक लिपि: [hɪndʊstaːniː]) या बोलचाल हिन्दी^[7] (नस्तालीक़: بول چال ہندی) या आसान उर्दू^[8] (नस्तालीक़: آسان اردو) बोली हिन्दी और उर्दू का एकीकृत रूप है।^[1]^[2] ये हिन्दी और उर्दू, दोनो के बोलचाल की भाषा है। इसमें संस्कृत के तत्सम शब्द और अरबी-फ़ारसी के उधार लिये गये शब्द, दोनों कम होते हैं। यही हिन्दी और उर्दू का वह रूप है जो भारत की जनता दैनिक जीवन में उपयोग करती है^[9] और हिन्दी सिनेमा इसी पर आधारित है। ये हिन्द-यूरोपीय भाषा-परिवार की भारोपीय भाषा की शाखा में आती है। ये देवनागरी या फ़ारसी-अरबी, किसी भी लिपि में लिखी जा सकती है।

You may need rendering support to display the uncommon Unicode characters in this article correctly.

हिन्दुस्तानी भाषा की अवधारणा को "एकीकृत भाषा" या "फ्यूज़न भाषा" के रूप में महात्मा गांधी द्वारा समर्थित किया गया था। हिन्दी से उर्दू में रूपान्तरण (या इसके विपरीत) आम तौर पर अनुवाद के बजाय केवल दो लिपियों के बीच लिप्यन्तरण द्वारा प्राप्त किया जाता है, जो आमतौर पर केवल धार्मिक और साहित्यिक ग्रन्थों के लिए आवश्यक होता है।

पुरानी हिन्दी के रूप में पहली बार लिखी गई काव्य-खण्ड का पता 769 ईस्वी के आरम्भ में लगाया जा सकता है।^[10] दिल्ली सल्तनत के दौरान, जिसने लगभग सम्पूर्ण भारत (आज के अधिकांश पाकिस्तान, दक्षिणी नेपाल और बांग्लादेश) पर राज किया था और जिसके परिणामस्वरूप हिन्दू और मुस्लिम संस्कृतियों का सम्पर्क हुआ, पुरानी हिन्दी जो प्राकृत पर आधारित थी तथा फ़ारसी से शब्दों को लेकर समृद्ध हुई, जो कि वर्तमान में भी विकसित हो रही है।^[11]^[12]^[13]^[14]^[15]^[16]

हिन्दुस्तानी भारतीय स्वतन्त्रता आन्दोलन के दौरान भारतीय राष्ट्रीय एकता^[17]^[18] की अभिव्यक्ति बन गई, और उत्तर भारतीय उपमहाद्वीप के लोगों की आम भाषा के रूप में बोली जाती है,^[19] जो बॉलीवुड फ़िल्मों और गीतों की हिन्दुस्तानी शब्दावली में परिलक्षित होती है।^[20]^[21]

भाषा की मूल शब्दावली प्राकृत (संस्कृत की एक वंशज) से ली गई है, जिसमें फ़ारसी और अरबी (फ़ारसी के माध्यम से) से पर्याप्त मात्रा में शब्द लिए गए हैं। एथनोलॉग की रिपोर्ट है कि, 2020 तक, 81 करोड़ वक्ताओं के साथ हिन्दी और उर्दू मिलकर अंग्रेजी और मैण्डरिन के बाद दुनिया में तीसरी सबसे अधिक बोली जाने वाली भाषा का गठन करतीं हैं।

1995 में हिन्दी-उर्दू बोलने वालों की कुल संख्या 30 करोड़ से अधिक बताई गई, जिससे हिन्दुस्तानी दुनिया में तीसरी या चौथी सबसे अधिक बोली जाने वाली भाषा बन गई।^[22]^[10]

मानक हिन्दी

मानक हिन्दी, भारत की 22 आधिकारिक रूप से मान्यता प्राप्त भाषाओं में से एक और संघ की आधिकारिक भाषा है, आमतौर पर हिन्दी, भारत की स्वदेशी देवनागरी लिपि में लिखी जाती है और उर्दू की तुलना में कम फ़ारसी और अरबी प्रभाव दिखाती है। इसमें गद्य, कविता, धर्म और दर्शन के साथ 500 वर्षों का साहित्य है। एक बोली के विभिन्न स्पेक्ट्रम और रजिस्टरों के बारे में कल्पना कर सकते हैं, स्पेक्ट्रम के एक छोर पर अत्यधिक फ़ारसीकृत उर्दू और दूसरे छोर पर वाराणसी के आसपास के क्षेत्र में बोली जाने वाली एक संस्कृत की विविधता है। वहीं दूसरी ओर, भारत में सामान्य उपयोग में, हिन्दी में उन सभी बोलियों को शामिल किया गया है जो उर्दू के आसपास की नहीं हैं।

भारत भर के स्कूलों में मानक हिन्दी पढ़ाई जाती है (तमिलनाडु एक अपवाद है।)

पुरुषोत्तम दास टण्डन द्वारा औपचारिक और आधिकारिक हिन्दी की वकालत करने के बाद और स्वतन्त्रता के बाद भारत सरकार द्वारा स्थापित, जो कि संस्कृत से बहुत प्रभावित है,

पूरे भारत में हिन्दुस्तानी की बोलियाँ बोली जाती हैं,

लोकप्रिय टेलीविजन और फ़िल्मों में प्रयुक्त हिन्दुस्तानी का तटस्थ रूप (जो लगभग बोलचाल की उर्दू के समान है), और

टेलीविज़न और प्रिण्ट समाचार रिपोर्टों में हिन्दुस्तानी के अधिक औपचारिक तटस्थ रूप का उपयोग किया जाता है।

मानक उर्दू

ज़ुबान-ए-उर्दू-ए-मुअल्ला नस्तलीक़ में

उर्दू पाकिस्तान की राष्ट्रीय भाषा और राज्य भाषा है और भारत की २२ आधिकारिक मान्यता प्राप्त भाषाओं में से एक है। भारत के कुछ भागों को छोड़ कर, यह अरबी-पश्तो की (विस्तारित) नस्तलीक़ लिपि में लिखी जाती है। यह फ़ारसी शब्दावली से बहुत प्रभावित है और ऐतिहासिक रूप से रेख़्ता के रूप में भी जानी जाती है।

भाषा के साहित्य के शुरुआती रूपों को अमीर खुसरो देहलवी की १३वीं-१४वीं शताब्दी की कृतियों में देखा जा सकता है, जिन्हें अक्सर "उर्दू साहित्य का पिता" कहा जाता है, जबकि वाली डेक्कानी को उर्दू कविता के पूर्वज के रूप में देखा जाता है।

We may now define the three main varieties of Hindōstānī as follows:—Hindōstānī is primarily the language of the Upper Gangetic Doab, and is also the lingua franca of India, capable of being written in both Persian and Dēva-nāgarī characters, and without purism, avoiding alike the excessive use of either Persian or Sanskrit words when employed for literature. The name 'Urdū' can then be confined to that special variety of Hindōstānī in which Persian words are of frequent occurrence, and which hence can only be written in the Persian character, and, similarly, 'Hindī' can be confined to the form of Hindōstānī in which Sanskrit words abound, and which hence can only be written in the Dēva-nāgarī character.
