- yeah your translation is very good indeed :)

Khoda Hafiz is said in Urdu and probably in Farsi too but It\'a not part of Hindi

- Well, it really depends on how you\'re pronouncing it, Jubran, it\'s difficult to transliterate Hindi at times:

how are you = aap kaise hai.n (to a man) or kaisii hai.n (to a woman). The closest one I can think to yours is \"kya haal hai\" - literally, what\'s your condition.

very much - bahut

namaste = Hello/goodbye. Also works for welcome, but you can also say namaskar.

Finish = I know it to be khatm (close to Arabic, no?) depending on the context. Khatm karna - to finish.

bas (which, yes, is pronounced bus) = enough or stop

laRkii = girl (note that it\'s a rolling \'r\' sound, as in Spanish, and a long vowel at the end.)

laRka = boy (same as above)

Theek hai = fine. good is \"accha\". Note that the \'Th\' in this case is made with the tongue touching the hard pallet.

dirty = again, I know the word to be ganda.

problem = samasya, mushkil. I\'ve never seen the word \'jenjal\' before. :/

lekin = but (same in arabic :) )

- thank you alowyn for your help and correction ... beganing i have to learen speaking and not speak and write at the same time ... so it\'s good at least i have some vocabulary in hindi ... in fact i like to speak hindi more than read or write.
