and u r arguing with me due to your 'extreme' ignorance of India,the history,the language, the religion. Even though I have slapped u down three or four times..u still persist...lol. AS General Honore might say: Are You Stuck on Stupid? Now u have changed the whole premise of your argument by implying we were arguing over Indian 'notables' in history that spoke Farsi...lol..I am telling U..that INDIAN 'ELITES' NEVER SPOKE FARSI..THEY SPEAK HINDU..A DERIVATIVE OF SANSKRIT..handen down by the Aryan 'invaders'. U are stuck on the stupid on stupid and the Moghul 'invasion' which came a century or so after.
During Mughal (thats how it ougth to be spelled) era Farsi was a language for literature (official variety) for writing biographies and chronicles, commoners spoke hindi (though in a very different form than today), the court language (official language for official records, judiciary etc..) was Urdu, a cross of Farsi and Hindi.
Might sound funny but the elites always try to speak a language people dont understand, probably thats what makes them elite.

I mean this in the nicest possible way, but you're very stupid and don't belong on Free Republic. Please at least do a better job of pretending to know what you're talking about before you troll. Good bye.
