With more than 104 million speakers of the Urdu language around the world, including those who speak Urdu as a second language, it is important for those who have some Urdu knowledge to improve their writing skills. Urdu has been written in the Nastaliq style since the 12th century, following the script formulated by Persians and Arabs. Urdu is the formal national language of Pakistan and is considered to be very similar to Hindi; linguists identify the two languages as starkly different.
