Description

About The Book: A Manual of the Hindustani Language by A. Curtois is a practical guide designed to teach the basics of Hindustani, the common language spoken across much of northern India during British rule. Intended primarily for British officials, missionaries, and traders, the book includes grammar rules, vocabulary, and useful conversational phrases. It emphasizes both written and spoken forms, covering Urdu and Hindi scripts. The manual served as an essential linguistic tool for colonial administrators seeking effective communication with the local population.Top of Form
