(For information on the phonology, grammar, and other features of the spoken language, please see Hindustani language.) Hindi is one of the official languages of the Union of India, and the lingua franca of the Hindi belt languages.

- Hindi is an Indo-Aryan language or languages descended from Sanskrit, defined with various degrees of scope:
:* In the narrowest and in English perhaps most common sense, Hindi is Modern Standard Hindi, a literary style and standardized register of Hindustani.
:* In a slightly broader sense, Hindi is spoken Hindustani, as used for example in Hindi Cinema ( Bollywood). In this sense Hindi is essentially the same as Urdu.
:*In an intermediate sense, Hindi is the Central Zone dialects of Western Hindi (including Hindustani) and Eastern Hindi (including Fijian Hindi).
:*In the widest sense, "Hindi" covers the language varieties of the so-called Hindi belt: Western Hindi, Eastern Hindi, Bihari (including Caribbean Hindustani but sometimes excluding Bhojpuri and Maithili), Pahari (excluding Nepali and in recent years Dogri), and often Rajasthani.
