In how many countries Hindi is spoken?

It's tricky to give an exact number of countries where Hindi is spoken, as "spoken" can mean different things. Here's a breakdown:

Official Language:

* India: Hindi is one of the 22 official languages of India and is spoken by a large majority of the population.

* Fiji: Hindi is an official language of Fiji, alongside English and Fijian.

Widely Spoken:

* Nepal: While Nepali is the official language, Hindi is widely spoken, particularly in border areas and among certain communities.

* Mauritius: Hindi is one of the most popular languages in Mauritius, though English is the official language.

* Other Countries: Hindi is also spoken by significant communities in countries like the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and many more.

Total:

There isn't a definitive answer to how many countries have Hindi as an official language. While only two (India and Fiji) have it as an official language, it's widely spoken in many others.
