| Word linking! - Since, as was mentioned in a separate thread, this forum was growing stale, and not many of us have enough knowledge of Hindi, I thought we could at least pool our vocabulary. And what better way than through this game! So, just to remind everyone of the rules. I'll start off with a word (in Hindi). The next person must post a word that is linked to the first word, and the next person must link to the word that the second person posted, etc. So for example, if I had posted the word 'food', the next person could post, 'plate', and the next person, 'crockery' etc. - but, of course, all these words ought to be in Hindi. Could everyone please post the transliteration AND translation, and if anyone else can, it would be great to have it in Hindi script (Devanagari) So, let's begin! first word: one that all you BW fans will recognise... दिल dil Heart | |

| I'll give this one a try... - Allright, I've just started learning Hindi a few months ago, and I'm learning on my own, so I'm a little weak on vocab, but this sounds like a great idea... :) प्यार करना pyaar karnaa to love Oh, and one more question on dil... is there a different word for the anatomical vs. "romantic" heart, or are they more or less the same word? | |
