    Namaste Nathan ji, it’s a great pleasure to hear from you again.

    Thank you so much for the offer! As I said in my reply to your comment on my blog I’m actually pretty busy with student life for a while. However I’d love to do something over the Easter break, in around a months time. Would that be possible? Thank you so much.

    That’s cheating a little ;) Haha, but still that’s very impressive! I’ve counted to 44 now But even I’ve cheated a bit because for example we can count लिख (the तू imperative of as लिखना ) well as लिखना.

    It was really interesting actually because as I built up the Hindi words in the wordsearch I kept noticing more and more other words that…[Read more]

    • Bad’haaii ho, bhaai saahb! cool idea. I found 31 words but maybe wasn’t playing by rules of short/long vowels. ”acchaa kaam” ;)

    We’ve learnt quite a lot about the Past Tense in Hindi recently and it has been a little confusing don’t you think? So today we’re going to revise over all we’ve learnt and I’m going to show you a load of slightly more complicated sentences! Have a look… http://tumblr.com/xay17ew0i9

    Thank you! Yeah definitely, I really hope Hindi learners on my blog are at least a little interested in reading a little about Urdu.

    As far as I’m aware the word Hindu comes from right back to the Sanskrit word सिन्धु sindhu meaning “river or the Indus”. Then there’s the Arabic -stan meaning land of. etc etc. Definitely an interesting word…[Read more]

    • Shábásh! These are good. Made me think a bit how for Hindi-learners, at least some Urdu awareness is helpful to understand 2 systems for the same Hindi/Urdu phonetics & how they work.
