MaRoGuys, I wonder aren't the east-asian languages India, Pakistan, Srilanka..etc but not the chinese look countries..aren't this languages little different?
-
Ashraf HZChinese look countries? π I suppose East Asia refers to Japan, China, Korea, etc. Surprisingly, even though their writing seems similar, they are a little isolated from each other in their roots. But some say Korean and Japanese have some elements from Turkic and Mongolic.
My language, Bahasa Melayu (Malay), is part of an Austronesian family of languages. We share roots with Bahasa Indonesia, Tagalog (Philippines), and all those islands in the Pacific including Hawaii. In the west, as far as Madagascar π
As for the roots for languages of South Asian countries, I'll leave it up to the rest to discuss π -
MaRoThis means they nearly the same, like Arabic countries Egyptian differs from Lebanese from Saudi from Morrocco in almost all the words but at the last they're similar.
I mean when I say Hindu, Punjabi...etc they aren't different languages, right? -

Just a little clarification -MaRoThis means they nearly the same, like Arabic countries Egyptian differs from Lebanese from Saudi from Morrocco in almost all the words but at the last they're similar.
I mean when I say Hindu, Punjabi...etc they aren't different languages, right?
'Hindu' is not a language; its a religion. "Hindi", "Punjabi", "Bengali", "Marathi", "Tamil", "Telugu" ( are few of the huge number of languages spoken in India) - and trust me, all are different π -

Haryanvi is a dialect of hindi and does not have it's own text. It is written in devnagri. About 60% of the people living in Delhi can speak and understand it but still it is not a language.ankur8819Hindi, English,Punjabi,Haryanvi !!! -
