Both the verbs and grammars of Hindi and Urdu are the same. Thus they are the same languages. The mother language of Hindi (or Urdu) is Sanskrit. All the verbs of Hindi (or Urdu) are derived from Sanskrit, e.g. Karana, Khana, Khelana… are derived from Sanskrit Karoti, Khadati, Khelati.

Hindi and Urdu are mutually intelligible languages with shared linguistic roots. They both evolved from Hindustani, a Central Indo-Aryan language, and have similar grammar and vocabulary. The main difference lies in their writing systems and vocabulary usage. Hindi is written in the Devanagari script and incorporates more Sanskrit-derived vocabulary, while Urdu is written in the Perso-Arabic script and has more vocabulary borrowed from Persian and Arabic. Despite these differences, Hindi and Urdu speakers can generally understand each other. read less
