Hyderabadi Urdu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hyderabadi Urdu (Urdu: حیدرآبادی اردو) is a dialect of Urdu spoken in Hyderabad, India. This dialect is special as it is a mixture of Hindi, Urdu and Marathi. This dialect can be understood very easily by most Hindi or Urdu speaking public. But it is very difficult for persons who are not born in Hyderabad to use it themselves. Some consider it synonym of Dakhini while others see it as a variant. It is also widespread in Telengana. Some differences are: Kaiku=why instead of kyon in traditional Urdu Mereku=me instead of mujhey in traditional Urdu Tereku=you instead of tujhey in traditional Urdu Nakko=no instead of naheen in traditional Urdu (although naheen and naa are sometimes used) Chokra(=boy)and chokree (=girl) instead of ladka and ladkee in traditional Urdu.
