Art/Literary - Music
English term or phrase: music
My dictionary says: http://www.wildboar.net/multilingual/asian/hindi/hindi.html (left column, line 3)
Google Translate says: संगीत

Which one is correct? What's the difference? Is my dictionary's way the old = original = more correct way to write it? I need to be a 100% sure. Thank you!

संगीत
Explanation:
The spellings of this word in Hindi which you found on the website are also correct but these are used in Sanskrit. The word sangeet for music is written in Hindi like संगीत only. However, I would suggest that you may not take the Hindi given in the website mentioned by you as authentic.

agree  Amar Nath: संस्कृत ही नहीं, प्राचीन हिंदी में भी पंचम वर्ण का प्रयोग मिलता है किंतु हिंदी के सरलीकरण के क्रम में पंचम वर्ण के स्थान पर अनुस्वार का प्रयोग सर्वमान्य हो गया है।
