so like urdu seems like such a polite language... most of the swear words i know (not that many

) are borrowed from punjabi.
i was just wondering, are there even words for umm, different parts of the body. i remember hearing something from kids at school like once but it sounded more like punjabi to me than urdu. so like i was just curious and i'm old enough now. but it's still not something i'd wanna ask my parents.

and i'm not really sure i wanna know but when you're teaching someone and they're like, so what's that called and you're like shutup and pay attention but then you're like i honestly don't know and then you go into this tangent of how urdu is basically a mix of several other languages and it's not as old and established as other languages but then you wonder what they used to teach medical students back when/where higher education used to be all in urdu, if anywhere/ever. so yeah...

okay, so now that THAT'S out of my system, i think urdu is a very poetic/romantic language.

i love words like guDaaz (tender?), afsurDa (sad), Dehleez (threshold)... etc

Urdu is such a fake language.

Infact, the word urdu itself is not an urdu word, it is a turkish word. lollllllllll. only losers speak urdu.

Hindi is the closest language related to Urdu, prove me wrong?

flutterz · #**179** (**permalink**) 03-20-2008, 11:17 PM

no, no. you all have it wrong.

urdu is actually 37% hebrew, 54% japanese, 43% norwegien, 12% spanish and 89% pig latin.

and it's the closest language to whatever language eskimos speak... don't let the above numbers deceive you.
