As most of you are aware that Hindu is a person that follows Hindu religion or Hinduism whereas Hindi is the Language but here I want to stress on the point that these two are inseparable.

Most Hindi learning websites will tell you and teach you that the basic Hindi salutations are , Namaste,Namaskar,Suprabhat, etc but only a true Hindu will tell you that other very common salutations are RamRam, JaiShriKrishna, Om Namah Shivay,Jai Mata Di, HariOm, Jai Gurudev, Jai Maharajji,etc. and the one which is popular mostly in Vrindavan ( village of lord Krishna), Radhey-Radhey and Radhey Shyam. These are all religious salutations and popular in North India.

Rosetta Stone might teach you the rules of Hindi grammar but for fine tuning you need a native Hindi tutor. Its like the websites will give you a Shareer ( body ) but for Atma ( soul ) you need a real Native Hindi tutor which is not the case with other popular languages.
