Excerpt from First Lessons in Urdu
The Vocabulary used is that of the simplest kind of Urdu, such as will be found helpful in acquiring the language of everyday life.
Having laid a foundation of this kind, the student will find himself able to begin speaking the language, a most 'important' factor in acquiring a sound and accurate know ledge of Urdu. Reading, writing and speaking should be cultivated simultaneously, or the student will perhaps find himself able to read intelligently, to discuss points of Grammar, and yet be unable to express his thoughts with fluency and accuracy.

Excerpt from First Lessons in Urdu
This little book, like my "First Lessons in Hindi," has been written to supply a need. It is intended to help those who have to study Urdu in the Persian character from the beginning, and, for this reason, in the Exercises, Vocabularies, and Grammatical Notes, that character has been used; a transliteration into Roman characters being added, as such a transliteration will be found useful to beginners. At the same time those who wish, at this stage, to learn to use only Roman-Urdu will find the book useful.
The Grammatical Notes are only introductory and elementary, as it is hoped that the student of this book will go forward to more extensive and profounder works. They will, it is to be hoped, lead up to Platts's "Hindustani Grammar," Kempson's "Syntax and Idioms of Hindustani," and other works of a more advanced character.
