'''Hindi''' is one official language of the union government of India. It is an [[Indo-European]] language that is spoken mainly in northern and central India.
Hindi syntax is distinctive because it relies on ''incorporation'', a process in which verbs and direct objects fuse into a single unit. This structure is common to almost all of the world's languages; however, it is very rare in the Indo-European family. Its presence in Hindi is probably due to the influence of neighboring Dravidian languages.
