Description
About The Book: A Sketch of the Hindustani Language by Sir Charles J. Lyall is an influential work that provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of Hindustani, the precursor to modern Hindi and Urdu. Published in 1880, it examines the language's grammar, vocabulary, and historical evolution, emphasizing its Persian, Arabic, and Sanskrit influences. Lyall also highlights Hindustani's role as a lingua franca in British India. This work remains significant for linguists and historians studying the development of Indo-Aryan languages and colonial-era linguistic policies.
