The materials of the ""Outline"" are presented here in Urdu (Perso-Arabic) script, with the relevant differences between Urdu and Hindi in vocabulary usage and grammar introduced and explained as they arise. Vocabularies and exercises are presented. Those who have used the ""Outline"" will have the advantage, when they take up this book, that their introduction to Urdu is via Hindi-Urdu material already familiar to them.
