A Concise Grammar of the Hindústání Language by Edward Backhouse Eastwick is a foundational text offering a systematic approach to learning Hindustani, the precursor to modern Hindi and Urdu. Published in the 19th century, it covers phonetics, vocabulary, grammar rules, and sentence structure, making it a valuable resource for students and linguists of colonial India. Eastwick, a British linguist and Orientalist, designed the book to aid communication in administrative and scholarly contexts, contributing significantly to early studies of Indian languages.

Edward B. Eastwick (1814-1883) was a distinguished British orientalist, diplomat, and author. He was proficient in several Asian languages and contributed significantly to the study of Persian and Indian literature. Eastwick served as a professor and held various diplomatic positions, including postings in India and Persia. His translations and writings on Eastern cultures and languages were highly regarded in his time. George Small, M.A., was a former missionary in Calcutta and Benares and a member of the Philological Society of London. He authored A Handbook of Sanskrit Literature (1866) and A Concise Grammar of the Hindústání Language (1858), contributing significantly to linguistic studies during the 19th century. His works provided essential resources for understanding Sanskrit and Hindustani, aiding scholars and administrators in colonial India. Small’s expertise and dedication to language studies have cemented his legacy as a valuable figure in philology and Indian linguistic research.
