Literature
Solution
Literature: Language and literature also saw the influence of the two traditions. The language which the Mughal rulers used in the administration was Persian. Through the Persian language, India was able to develop close cultural relations with Central Asia and Iran. In the course of time, Persian became the language of administration and the language of the upper classes. The greatest linguistic synthesis is seen in the development of Urdu, which is a mixture of Persian, Arabic, Hindi, and other regional languages. Urdu was originally known as ‘Zaban-e- Hindvi’ because its grammatical structure is similar to that of Hindi.
