Learn Urdu
It is sometimes a hard decision to decide which language to learn. Why not choose Urdu? For business, pleasure or just to get a fresh perspective from different corners of our world. It is considered as one of the most polite languages of the world.
Urdu is written in the Persian-Arabic script. If you can read and write Urdu, you will automatically learn to read and write two other languages — Persian and Arabic — and you may also understand some words from them too. This melodious language will make you adopt a “zen attitude,” thus building social relationships.
