Pronunciation
Hindi is written using the Devanagari script. The Hindi you see on these pages have
been transcribed using the English alphabet. Because the Devanagari script contains
more letters than the English alphabet, sometimes it is necessary to use two or eventhree English letters to represent one Devanagari letter. Below is a list of vowels and
consonants in Hindi together with guidelines for pronouncing them. Hindi makes
widely use of nasal sounds; vowels exist in both a regular and a nasalized version.
When transcribing Hindi, one often writes the letter 'n' after a nasalized vowel.
Example:
Mera naam Poul hai. Kyaa aap John hain? (My name is Poul. Are you John?)
The 'ai' in "hai" is a non-nasalized vowel, while the 'ai' in "hain" is nasalized.
There are no upper and lower case letters in Hindi; all letters have only one case.Any capitalization of Hindi words on these pages is only to aide the reader.
Vowels
a normal, formal, woman, popular.
aa father, par, car, far.
i hit, pin, gin, tin, win, sin.
u bull, full, pull, put.
uu crucial.
e set, pet, let.ee they, hey.
ai said
o over, lower.
oo mole, pole, post.
au audit, August, Paul.
Consonants
g get, gun, mug, give.
gh g + h.
n sing, wing, bring.
ch much, such.
chh ch + h.
jh j + h.
t tree, tea.
th t + h (hard).

th thin, both.
sh she, show, shop.
s seen, sun.
Syntax
Hindi uses a different word order than English. The main differences are that verbs
are placed at the end of the sentence (like in German) and that Hindi (like other
Indian languages) uses postpositions instead of prepositions. Postpositions are like
prepositions except that they are written afterthe noun.
Normal sentences
English: Subject Verb Object => I learn Hindi
Hindi: Subject Object Verb => I Hindi learn
English: Subject Verb Preposition Object => I go to the shop
Hindi: Subject Object Postposition Verb => I shop to go
Imperative sentences
English: Verb Place Adverb => Come here now
Hindi: Place Adverb Verb => Here now come
English: Verb Negative Verb Adverb => Do not eat quickly
Hindi: Adverb Negative Verb => Quickly not eat
Interrogate sentences
English: Adverb Aux.Verb Subject Verb => What are you drawing?
Hindi: Subject Adverb Verb => You what draw?

Hindi Verbs
Hindi verbs are inflected with respect to
gender of the subject (masculine, feminine)
number of the subject (singular, plural)
tense (present, past, future)
action (perfect, imperfect, continuous) degree of respect (intimate, familiar, respect)
Verbs are referred to in their infinitive noun form which ends in na.
Examples:
bolna to speak
likhna to write
lena to take
ana to come
The stem of a verb is the infinitive form minus the na ending.
Examples:
bol
likh
le
a
Present Tense

main hun I am
-

6/27
tu hai you are (intimate)
yah hai this, he, she, it is
vah hai that, he, she, it is
ham hain we are
tum ho you are (familiar)
ap hain you are (respect)ye hain these, they are
ve hain those, they are
Present Imperfect
The present imperfect is used for habitual actions. It is formed by adding ta, te, or ti
to the stem of the verb followed by the present tense of hona.
Below are shown the forms in the masculine. The feminine forms can be constructed
by replacing bolta and bolte with bolti.
main bolta hun I speak
tu bolta hai you speak (intimate)
yah bolta hai this, he, it speaks
vah bolta hai that, he, it speaks
ham bolte hain we speak
tum bolte ho you speak (familiar)
ap bolte hain you speak (respect)
ye bolte hain these, they speak
ve bolte hain those, they speak
Present Continuous
The present continuous is used for ongoing actions -- like the "-ing" form in
English. It is formed like this:
stem + raha/rahe/rahi + present tense of hona
Below are shown the forms in the masculine. The feminine forms can be constructed
by replacing raha and rahe with rahi.
main bol raha hun I am speakingtu bol raha hai you are speaking (intimate)
yah bol raha hai this, he, it is speaking
vah bol raha hai that, he, it is speaking
ham bol rahe hain we are speaking
tum bol rahe ho you are speaking (familiar)

ye bol rahe hain these, they are speaking
-

Past Tense
Past tense of hona (to be):
main tha / thi I was
tu tha / thi you were (intimate)
yah tha / thi this, he, she, it was
vah tha / thi that, he, she, it was
ham the / thin we were
tum the / thin you were (familiar)
ap the / thin you were (respect)
ye the / thin these, they were
ve the / thin those, they were
(The slash seperates masculine and feminine forms)
Past Imperfect
The past imprefect is used for habitual actions in the past. It is formed like the
present imperfect but with the past tense of hona instead of the present tense.
Below are shown the forms in the masculine. The feminine forms can be constructed
by replacing bolta and bolte with bolti, replacing tha with thi, and the with thin.
main bolta tha I used to speak
tu bolta tha you used to speak (intimate)
yah bolta tha this, he, it used to speak
vah bolta tha that, he, it used to speak
ham bolte the we used to speak
tum bolte the you used to speak (familiar)
ap bolte the you used to speak (respect)
ye bolte the these, they used to speak
ve bolte the those, they used to speak
Past Continuous

English. It is formed like this:
stem + raha/rahe/rahi + past tense of hona

ap bol rahe the you were speaking (respect)
ye bol rahe the these, they were speaking
ve bol rahe the those, they were speaking
Future Tense
Future Imperfect
The future imprefect is used to refer to the future as well as to make assumptions
about the presents (just like in English). It is formed by adding unga/i, ega/i, enge/i,
or oge/i to the stem.
Below are shown the forms in the masculine. The feminine forms can be constructed
by replacing the ending a or e with i.
main bolunga I will speak
tu bolega you will speak(intimate)
yah bolega this, he, it will speak
vah bolega that, he, it will speak
ham bolenge we will speak
tum bologe you will speak (familiar)
ap bolenge you will speak (respect)

as the present imperfect but with the future of raha instead of hona.

by replacing the ending a or e with i in both verbs.

vah bolta rahega that, he, it will be speaking

ye bolte rahenge these, they will be speaking

Imperative
There are three different imperatives in Hindi: tu, tum, and ap imperative.
The tu imperative is the stem itself
The tum imperative is the stem + o
The ap imperative is the stem + ie or iye
Examples:
pani la bring water (intimate)
pani lao bring water (familiar)
pani laie bring water (respect)
The imperatives are made negative by adding mat, na, or nahin.
Use mat with the tu imperative.
Use mat or na with the tum imperative.
Use na or nahin with the ap imperative.
Examples:
vahan mat ja don't go there (intimate)
vahan na jao don't go there (familiar)
vahan nahin jaie don't go there (respect)
To Have
There is no Hindi verb for "to have". Possession is expressed in other ways.

Movable Objects
Possession of movable objects is expressed using ke pas after the (English) subject.
Examples:
Ram ke pas gari hai Ram has a car ("near Ram a car it is")
mera pas kitab hai I have a book ("near me a book it is")
Immovable Objects
Possession of immovable objects and of relatives is expressed using the possessive
particles ka, ki, ke.
Examples:

feminine. There are exceptions.

Postpositions
Postpositions in Hindi are like prepositions in English but they are placed after the
noun.
The noun in front of the postposition is always in the indirect case.
The use of postpositions makes it possible to express the "missing" cases in Hindi.
nominative larki the girl (direct case)
genitive
s, m larki ka kam the work of the girl
s, f larki ki bat the word of the girl
pl, m larki ke kam the works of the girl
