Gurkhas are from Nepal and their main language is nepali.Hindi is language of India but in this video it says the main language of Gurkhas is hindi.Gurkhas have been serving british crown for 200 years and they dont know even know what language they speak?

what a negligence

Hindi is language of India

gurkhas are best troops you can get for hand to hand combat. Back in world war days gurkhas prefered running and cutting there enemies with khukuries with gun on there other hand. Which most of the time used to be left unused lol

@limbuckl She wasn't saying that the Gurkhas main language is Hindi what she said was Gurkhas are from Nepal so most of them speak hindi.

Hope you understand the difference. Let us not make false accusation for no reason and I am Nepalese as well.

@limbucki this is a reality of Britishers they always neglect the gorkha,The gorkha people gave their live for Britain but Britishers ignore the sacrifices of gurkha people.they never think about gurkha people.If they think about gurkha they should return the land of nepal in the time of indian Independence.But they not do that & give our land to india.now nepali people faced a tags of outsiders on their on land.so stop served Britain.

I Have to admit Somalis in the British army parachute regiment & Infantry !

There time to shine will come one day # lol

Somalis are fearless just like the Gurkhas

@TheeEvilThatMenDo that's because nepali,hindi, urdu,sinhalese and bangali all belongs to Indo-Aryan family.

But the four ethnic group that makes up the Gurkha namely Magar, Gurung, Rai and Limbu have their own languages which belongs to Tibeto-Burmese family.

hope this helps.

Nepali,Hindi,Urdu,Sinhalese and Bengali are all related,and even Arabic & so are most of the other languages if u go far back enough in history..One of them can speak one of those languages if exposed to it for some time.I only hope that this correlation makes us realize we all are the same.Get over it.

The reason Gurkhas can speak hindi is by watching bolloywood movies. If we did not have TVs n indian channels at home Hindi would be alien language to us. Wen my dad was in gurkhas there was no Indian channels in Nepal hence he knows no hindi, but todays gurkhas can speak hindi cuz they have watched hindi movies n programs since kids as we have access to hindi channels.

@limbuckl It does not claim that their main language is Hindi. It simply says that most of them speak it. What is the negligence here?

@GeatishBeowulf Actually Gurkhas were never conquered. British got owned. Trust me I am an Indian but I know this. The main reason for Gurkha community's valour and courage is their strong belief in their religion--Sanatana Dharma.

While we Indians chose pseudo-secularism, Nepalis remained strongly religious and made sure that no appeasement is done. Hence cultural and faith purity and strong Dharma is the source of their power.

We must learn from our Nepali brothers and sisters.

[Saffronwing1]

@limbuckl But you must agree that we Indians and you Nepalis share one common bond; that of faith and culture. Regardless of what our stupid politicians make of us, we still are blood brothers. :-)

@GeatishBeowulf hehehheheheheee who said u nepal was a part of british india.Lear some history and write on the wall dude.Nepal was never colonized by british or any other forces.
