Abstract

According to linguists, ancient Urdu (Deccani) has a special identity due to its linguistic, phonological, semantic, historical and cultural significance. A unique aspect of research on Deccan literature is lexicography. We have been writing Deccani Urdu dictionaries for over a century. In Deccani Urdu dictionaries, the meanings of ancient Deccani words are defined in modern Urdu.
