Namaste class,

In the Hindi class dated Sunday, April 26, we first corrected the homework given the previous week:

1. Eat the sweet cantaloupe
मीठा खरबूजा खा।

2. Make a rose garland
गुलाबों की माला बना।

3. Drink cane juice
गन्ने का रस पी।

4. Wear the green salwar
हरा सलवार पहन।

5. Give me the book
मुझे किताब दे ।

After this, we read lesson 6 on page 37 of the Hindi Vivek Part One book. After I read and translated the lesson, I chose random students to read. I went through ‘imperatives’ (that is, statements used to give instructions, commands or orders to others). I mentioned that the Hindi Prabhaat Book One also has a lesson on imperatives, which you can refer to.

For homework, I gave a few sentences to translate from Hindi to English:

1. मीठा रास पी।
2. पीला आम खा।
3. हर दिन भजन गा।
4. लाल छाता ला।
5. दस केले खरीद।

Words that you do not know can be translated using a Hindi-English dictionary, or using online sites such as Google Translate or Shabdkosh.

Regards,
Vasudev.
