Am I the only one that found this comfortable to read and comprehend? Maybe it helps when you read languages in accents?

Is there any other example of two languages having same set of grammar and almost common verbs and pronouns but claim to be separate because of separate sources from where nouns and adjectives are borrowed? And yes separate borrowed scripts too!

Some good examples are -
Tajik and Dari - both are mutually intelligible languages but written in cyrillic script and perso-Arabic script respectively.
Maltese and Tunisian Arabic are largely mutually intelligible but written in latin and Arabic script respectively.

बहुत ख़ूब, क़िबला ये तो इंतिहाई उम्दा मिसाल है भाषा अतिवादिता की, अति सुंदर। आपको साझा करने के लिए और लेखक को लिखने के लिए साधुवाद और मुबारकबाद क़ुबूल फ़रमाइए।

That’s why I could not convincingly explain to my friends from Central Asia yesterday that Hindi and Urdu are one language.
Finally they settled upon two dialects of the same language.

हाहा... अपनी-अपनी भाषा का पक्ष लेते-लेते भाषा का उद्देश्य जोकि संवाद-संचार है, उसे ही पीछे छोड़ दिया।

I am reminded of Shaukat Thavi's quartain:
Kahen 'aab' aur 'jal' ko woh paani
Yeh Urdu, woh Hindi yeh Hindustani
Zaban ek hogi toh dil ek hoga
Yeh baatein toh achhi hain, lekin zubani

सुना है कि पंजाबी दो पेग के बाद पंजाबी छोड़ इंग्लिश में बात शुरू कर देते हैं... ऐसा तो कोई सीन नहीं है यहाँ पर?
