Why do some languages like Hindu have their own alphabet but also sometimes spell words in English?
In: Other
I didn’t know there was a language known as Hindu. Is there a Christian or Muslim language too? Anyway, I’ll assume you meant Hindi.
It’s simply because of so much influence of western media and British Colonial rule for centuries. English borrowed so many words from french due to Norman Conquest, etc.
I speak Hindi as a 3rd language. Ask me anything you want to.
