1. What countries is Urdu spoken in?
The Urdu language is spoken predominantly in Pakistan and India. It is the official state language of Pakistan and is also officially recognized in the constitution of India.

Maulvi Abdul Haq (Urdu: مولوی عبد الحق) (20 April 1870 – 16 August 1961) was a scholar and a linguist, whom some call Baba-e-Urdu (Urdu: بابائے اردو) (Father of Urdu). Abdul Haq was a champion of the Urdu language and the demand for it to be made the national language of Pakistan.
3. How can I read and write Urdu?
The first step would be to learn the Perso-Arabic script. After learning the Urdu Alphabet, reading and writing is the next step. Once you get accustomed to what letter makes what sound, it becomes pretty easy to write words. Learning the Urdu language can be a great asset when trying to understand how the language is written. The only tricky part about writing Urdu is that some words that are borrowed from Arabic contain letters that have sounds that are found in other letters of the alphabet.
Examples: In Urdu,
ھ،ح، ہ can all have a similar 'h' sound, but ح is found mostly in words borrowed from Arabic.
ت،ط have the same 'th' sound, but ط is found mostly in Arabic words
س،ص have the same 's' sound, ص is found in Arabic words
ض،ظ، ز، ذ all have the same 'z' sound, but ط and ض are found in Arabic loan words
The only thing that can be done to become accustomed to these words is to practice diligently and consistently to understand and learn the words spoken.
4. How hard is it to learn Urdu if you know Hindi?
Both languages are very similar to each other. Although there is no research to back this claim, some believe that among all people who are not regular Urdu speakers, Urdu is the easiest to learn for those who speak Hindi as the first language. The tricky part with Urdu is learning the Urdu written script. Because the alphabet group used for Urdu is similar to that of Arabic. So, while learning to read and write Urdu might be a much more difficult task for Hindi speakers, they can easily learn how to speak it. If one can find online resources that use roman Urdu, accomplishing that task would become much easier.
