The national language in Pakistan (Urdu) is incredibly similar to Hindi. It's just written with a different alphabet and has different words every now and then. Urdu is fairly standard across the country with slightly different accents.. The regional languages are different though. Some (like Punjabi) are spoken in India too, and then there's Pashto (also spoken in Afghanistan) but then there are Sindhi and Seraiki which can be similar and different to other languages. However, what excites me is the fact that Hindi is so similar to Urdu, the same tech could be repurposed for Urdu with much less work than a whole new language.
