About the "Indian" guides

There is no single language called Indian. India's constitution recognises 22 languages, and many more are spoken every day. Hindi is the most widely spoken, with about 341 million native speakers, and it serves as an official language of the national government together with English. The guides in this category mostly give Hindi, but some give Tamil, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi or other languages of India, and a few are about Native American languages. For a phrase in one particular language, the Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Punjabi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam and Urdu categories are the better place to look.
