Hello friends!! We are back with another lesson. If you have gone through the previous lessons and have done a little practice then you are ready to try your hand on little conversations. Let’s start with a very simple conversation between two friends. I have chosen a girl and a boy so that it is easier to understand the gender difference.

Conversation between two friends:

Anjali अंजलि
Rahul राहुल

अंजलि: हेलो राहुल!!! कैसे हो?

Anjali: Hello Rahul!!! Kaise ho?

Anjali: Hello Rahul!! How are you?

राहुल: मैं ठीक हूँ अंजलि. तुम कैसी हो?

Rahul: Main theek hoon. Tum kaisi ho?

Rahul: I am fine. How are you?

अंजलि: मैं भी ठीक हूँ. क्या हम आज कहीं घूमने चलें?

Anjali: Main bhi theek hoon. Kya hum aaj kahin ghoomne chlein?

Anjali: I am fine too. Today shall we go out somewhere?

राहुल: हाँ क्यों नहीं? चलो हम कहीं खाना खाने चलें.

Rahul: Haan kyon nhi? Chlo hum kahin khaana khane chlein.

Rahul: Yes, why not? Let’s go to eat.

अंजलि: हाँ यह ठीक रहेगा. मुझे भी भूख लगी है, लेकिन कहाँ चलें?

Anjali: Haan, yeh theek rhega. Mujhe bhi bhookh lgi hai, Lekin kahan chlein?

Anjali: Yes, this is a good idea. I am feeling hungry too, but where shall we go?

राहुल: चलो हम स्कूल के पास वाले रेस्त्रां में चलते हैं, वहाँ से हम मूवी देखने भी जा सकते हैं.

Rahul: Chlo hum school ke paas vale restaurant me chlte hain, vahan se hum movie dekhne bhi ja sakte hain.

Rahul: Let’s go to the restaurant near the school, from there we can go for a movie too.

अंजलि: वाह!! ये तो बहुत बढ़िया है. चलो हम बाकी दोस्तों को भी बुला लें.

Anjali: Vah!! ye to bahut badhiya hai. Chlo hum baki doston ko bhi bula lein.

Anjali: Wow!! This is a good idea. Let’s call our other friends too.

राहुल: सभी साथ होंगे तो ज्यादा मज़ा आएगा. मैं करीम और कुसुम को बुलाता हूँ.

Rahul: Sabhi sath honge to jyada mza aayega. Main kareem aur kusum ko bulaata hoon.

Rahul: The more the merrier. I will call Kareem and Kusum.

अंजलि: ठीक है मैं, कविता और रश्मि को बुलाती हूँ. हम थोड़ी देर में यहाँ ही मिलते हैं फिर सभी साथ चलते हैं.

Anjali: Theek hai, main Kavita aur Rashmi ko bulati hoon. Hum thodi der me yahan hi milte hain phir sbhi sath chlenge.

Anjali: Fine, I will ask Kavita and Rashmi. We will meet here in a few and then we all will go together.

राहुल: ठीक है!! हम 15 मिनट में मिलते हैं.

Rahul: Theek hai! hum 15 minute me milte hain.

Rahul: Alright! let’s meet in 15 minutes.

In the above conversation, you will notice that words in bold are actually English words. Hindi is a very dynamic language and few words have been adapted from English to make the language simpler.

The words in Italics distinguish between male and female gender. Words denoting male gender always end with ‘aa’ ‘आ’ and female gender ends with ‘ee’ ‘ई’.

Practicing conversation is such a good way to remember commonly used words and also to practice grammar. I hope this lesson was helpful. Keep practicing till the next lesson..
