Hindi is the most widely spoken language in India. A popular misconception is that it is the National Language in India, which it is not. Interestingly, the Indian Constitution does not name any language as its National Language because the people who framed it were aware of the high diverse nature of Indian population and their languages. Hindi enjoys the distinction of being in the Top 10 languages spoken in the world by number of people. Verbally one portion of it is quite similar to Urdu, but mainly it derives itself from Devanagiri, from which the language Sanskrit is also derived.
