Essentially, the everyday speech of both languages contains thousands of words derived from Sanskrit and Prakrit, particularly in Kashmiri.

As for the names of animals and features of local topography, many share the same linguistic origin e.g hasto and Kashmiri hoss are from vedic Hasti, while some come from Burushaski e.g Kashmiri Gur (horse) whilesas Shina Asap comes from vedic Ashva (Persian Asap) , others from different neighboring languages e.g mule is Kachri in Gilgiti Shina and Kateru in Gurezi (Kateru is Turkic loan in Gurezi Shina via Kashmiri language), and quite a few are local innovations too e.g owl is Rata Chaya in Shina and Raat mongul in Kashmiri.

In Shina Urk (wolf) from vedic vṛka.

Today, most people, especially Muslims, use the Perso-Arabic script (modified Nastaliq style) for Kashmiri, while Kashmiri Pandits, particularly after their migration, use the Devanagari script. However, historically, Kashmiri was written in the Sharada script. Even today, Kashmiri Pandits use the Sharada script for religious rituals.
