June 2, 2010 - + vowels

Remember the vowels:

Last week we looked at how these vowels mix with the first consonant . Today, we look at the same
pattern but with the second letter . These two consonants sound very, very similar. But they make
different sounds for a Hindi speaker. In order to get the sound right, we need to over emphasize the
difference. The first one has very little air. Try to say it with no air. The second one is harder with a
lot of air, .
After you go through todays lesson with and each of the vowels, go to the other lesson on and the
vowels to practice hearing the difference.
+ = (f) roof
+ = (m) umbrella
+ = to hide, conceal (related word: to be hidden)
+ = to skin, to peel
+ = (f) knife
+ = to touch, to feel
+ = + = (m) hole
+ = - silly
+ = small
+ = to season
+ = (m) poetic meter

the lord Buddha(a Religion) attained knowledge( gyan ) under a tree. At Bodhgaya, a huge
congregation of Buddhist monks take place time to time. The Great Emperor Ashoka spread Budhhism
all over the world especially in Asia( India, Srilanka,China,Singapore etc.). He fought a great Kalinga
war where millions of people were killed. He could not see bloodshed any more. Thus, he took the path
of Ahimsa -(non-violence) later.
Another example for Ahimsa is : Mahatma Gandhi(Father of Nation ) who fought his battle of
independence(freedom struggle) for India(also spread in Africa) through AHIMSA(Non-violence).
Some other drinks(Peya in Hindi ) are:
: sharbat(juice or squash ). Aam ka sharbat swadisht () hota hai. The mango juice is
tasty.
-Lassi(made up of curd)- Punjab ki lassi vishwa vikhyat hai. Punjbs lassi is world famous
=Chaach(butter milk)- Chhachh Piyo. Drink butter milk . Butter means:
Doodh(Milk)- Gay(cow) ka doodh sehat ke liye accha hota hai.The cow milk is good for health.
Gaay ka doodh oobalkar piyen taki saare kitanu mar jayen (Drink the cow milk after boiling so
that all the germs/bacteria get killed ).
Gaay is also called Gayya or gau in rustic form.(village level) in India. The cow has got the
respect of mother in India. I have personally seen that in Nasik (Mahrashtra province of
India)Pinjrapoke, the barren cows, abandoned ones are reared very well there and treated. The
free milk distribution system is in vogue there or milk is sold at nominal rates. Believe me that
the cows are given names like Saraswati,(Name of the Indian Goddess) Lakshmi, Kalyani etc. .
They respond well when you call asking Saraswai etc. They are graceful. They are awarded
prizes for their beauty, performance etc after a competition is organized every year.
-Doodh sek makhan banta hai( Butter is made up of milk).
-Makhan se ghee taiyar kee jaati hai.(Clarified butter is prepared out of butter).
- Bacchon ke mansik evam sharireek vikas ke liye Daal aur ghee dee jaati hai .( The lentils(pulses)
and ghee are given for the mental and physical growth of the children.
Bhains(Buffalo- male/masculine.). Bhains kaala hota hai. ( In hota , ta).
The buffalo is black.
Bhainsee(Buffalo- i.e she/feminine). Bhainsee kaali hoti hain. ( in Hoti ti)
(Kala )means black which is a colour(Rung in Hindi). (black) is a feminine colour .
( bhaise kaley hote hain.- Plural). Ta, converts into Te. Buffaloes are black.
Like, vah jaata hai.=- He goes. (singular) . Ve jaatey hain.= They go . (plural) Hai changes to
Hain. As stated earlier one . (dot) is added in Hai ( )to make Hain.( )
Saand(Bull). Yah saand tagda hai( This bull is strong).
Spain sannd ki ladai ke liye prakhyat hai.(Spain is famous for bull fight).
ISpeakHindi.com
Milk is also called dugdh ( ) in Hindi.

Sharaab(wine) or daroo(mostly used for local spirit -villagers)
Indians mostly take Tea(Chaay). In South India(especially Tamilnadu, coffee) is popular.
=Darjling chay ki kheti ke liye vikhyat hai(Darjling is famous for farming of tea plants ).
Similarly Coorg and Coonoor(near Ooty) in South India for Coffee and tea as well.
= Mujhe filter coffee subah lena pasand hai. (I like to take filter coffee in the morning)
=Neembu(lemon) ki chaay bhi mujhe pasand hai. (I also like lemon tea.)
=Mujhe ilaychi( ) i.e .cardamom ki chaay bhee bahut pasand hai.

The Greedy Dog
Once, a dog was terribly hungry. Just then, he got bread. He wanted to enjoy the bread, so he wanted to
sit peacefully eating bread and holding it in his mouth went towards the river. There was a small bridge
over the river. While crossing the river, the dog he saw his own reflection. The dog mistook it for
another dog and wished to snatch his bread too.
ISpeakHindi.com
27
To snatch the bread of the other dog, he barked and jumped into the river. As he opened his mouth, the
bread in his mouth fell into the river and flowed away. Now he had to go hungry. That is why we say,
we should not be greedy.

namaste nathan

understanding of the language..
i dont understand the usage of ne . Hopefully u will explain this in ur upcoming lessons
.
also how do u say i kept the book on the table
also .when do u use rahi instead of raha??
dhanyawad
is used in the past tense with transitive verbs. Take a look at the episodes Past Tense with ne
(9/6/2009) and Past Tense without ne (9/7/2009).
You say I kept the book on the table. by saying
is used to create the continuous tense. I can say, I work. by saying but if I want
to say I am working. This changes to . However, these sentences only work if
they are said by a man.
If a woman was to say, I work. she would say . And if she were to say, I am
working. she would say . See the episode Present Continuous Tense (8/25/2009).

Where do I get started?
I would recommend looking at the newbie lessons:http://www.ispeakhindi.com/lessons/newbie/
Do you have people to practice your Hindi with where you live? Perhaps there is a gasoline station
with a Hindi speaking attendent that you go to? Or maybe an Indian restaurant? Is there a Hindi study
group? Or local radio station? Ive created a page to capture this information on the wiki for Houston:
