Hindi number
The history of Hindi numbers is intertwined with the development and evolution of the Hindi language itself. Hindi is one of the modern Indo-Aryan languages, descended from Sanskrit, an ancient Indo-European language. Over time, as Hindi developed and absorbed influences from other languages and cultures, its number system evolved as well.
The early number system in India, including the region that now corresponds to modern-day Hindi-speaking areas, was based on the ancient Indian numeral system found in texts like the Vedas and other ancient scriptures. This system was decimal in nature and used a set of symbols to represent numbers.
As Hindi evolved from Sanskrit and other regional languages, it adopted many features from other languages like Persian and Arabic. The influence of Persian and Arabic languages introduced new number words and numerals, which further enriched the Hindi number system. During the medieval period, there was significant cultural and linguistic exchange with these regions, which left a lasting impact on the language, including numbers.
Hindi
The number system in Hindi primarily uses a combination of native Indic (or Indo-Aryan) numerals and numerals borrowed from Persian and Arabic. For instance, the native Hindi words for numbers one to ten are: एक (ek), दो (do), तीन (teen), चार (chaar), पाँच (paanch), छह (chhah), सात (saat), आठ (aath), नौ (nau), दस (das). These words have their roots in Sanskrit and other ancient Indian languages.
On the other hand, the numerals used for larger numbers (100, 1000, etc.) and sometimes for counting beyond ten are often borrowed from Persian and Arabic. For example, the word for 100 in Hindi is सौ (sau), which is of Persian origin.
As Hindi continued to develop, it also assimilated influences from English and other modern languages, resulting in the usage of Western Arabic numerals (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.) for day-to-day numerical representation in writing and mathematics. However, the traditional Hindi number words are still commonly used in spoken language and in cultural contexts.
Overall, the history of Hindi numbers is a testament to the cultural and linguistic diversity of the Indian subcontinent and the ongoing process of language evolution and adaptation over the centuries.
