Hindi verbs
Okay kiddo, let's learn about Hindi verbs!
Verbs are words that show action or a state of being. In Hindi, they’re called क्रिया-वाचक (kriya-vachak) शब्द (shabd).
When we want to talk about something happening or someone doing something, we use a verb. For example, if we want to say "I walk," we would use the Hindi verb "चलता हूँ" (chaltā hūn).
In Hindi, verbs change depending on their tense, meaning they can refer to something happening in the past, present, or future. For example, if we want to say "I walked," we would change the verb to "चला" (chalā).
Hindi verbs also change depending on the subject of the sentence. For example, if we want to say "He walks," we would use the verb "चलता है" (chaltā hai), with the ending "-ता" indicating that the subject is he. If we were talking about someone else, we would use a different ending.
It's important to remember that Hindi is a gendered language, so verbs will also change depending on whether the subject is male or female. For example, if we want to say "She walks," we would use the verb "चलती है" (chaltī hai), with the ending "-ती" indicating that the subject is she.
Finally kiddo, you should also know that Hindi has a lot of irregular verbs, which means they don’t follow the typical patterns we just learned. So, you’ll have to memorize those verbs separately.
Overall, verbs are an important part of Hindi grammar as they allow us to describe actions and states of being in different tenses and for different subjects.
