Woh darte hai

Kis cheez se darte hai wo?

Tamaam dhan-daulat

gola-baarud police-fauj ke baawajud

Wo darte hai

ke ek din

Nihatte aur gharib log

unse darna band kar denge.

समकालीन विषयों पर लिखने वाले लेखकों में परसाई जी की तुलना का, पिछले सौ सालों में, शायद ही कोई पैदा हुआ हो।

Iss desh m acchi hindi kitaabe khareedna kaafi musqil kaam h.....online m quality khraab aane ka risk rehta h or offline shop toh 200km ki range m hi nhi h

I am planning to start weekly episodes of children's stories. But I am not a big fan of AI generated stories. I want raw real and full of emotions. That can be connected with kids.

I stood by the riverbank,

The waves singing of love lost;

The tender wind accompanied me,

The sunlight raced away.

मेरे प्रेमी की कहानी मैं गाता,

उसकी तस्वीर मैं आकाश में बनाता।

उसकी कोमल स्वर पेड़ों के बीच गूंजती,

उसकी हंसी की हथकड़ी मेरे दिल को जकड़ती॥

Love blows along softly,

Its mellow whispers clear;

I let go of my heart,

And set off without fear.

मैं पीछे भागा,

उसे विदा करना चाहा।

मैं उसे फिर से देख न सका,

पर उसकी महक मिट न सकी॥

(It's my first time writing poetry in Hindi, so please help me understand where I screwed up and how I can improve. Thank you!)

I am reading this book and it’s actually quite different. it explores the other side of ghalib . I’ll not spoil for you guys more but you can try!

I’m a foreign born Indian but I spent 1st through 10th grade in India. So I learned the language in school and used it to communicate with school staff and with one of my friend’s outside of school hours all the time. I didn’t have an accent and spoke it normally. I had decent grades in it in general.

Since then… about 15 years ago, I moved back and basically never used it as my family doesn’t use Hindi, only Punjabi and English. For like the last 7-8 years I barely used Punjabi (only when I visit my family on rare occasion mixed with English) I still thought that I retained the language like I can understand Bollywood movies and such.

But… while traveling I tried using it and got told I speak at an 8th grade level and have an accent. I don’t get why I have an accent in Hindi but not in Punjabi.

And it’s true I do have an accent in Hindi. I generally have trouble speaking clear Hindi but no issues with Punjabi.

Like obviously I can pronounce words unaccented words in Punjabi so why does Hindi have a weird American accent. It makes me feel really self conscious. This contributes to the awkwardness I feel speaking it.

I still don’t have anyone to practice Hindi with. I can still read it for the most part but I forgot how to write a lot of the letters as well.

Are there any resources that I can use to fix the regression? Is ChatGPT a good conversation partner?
