Thanks a lot for your time and for the vids. Just wondering if the type of Hindi your teaching is"standardised Hindi"?

[ranjan2]

Yes, this is Standardized Hindi, in its Standard dialect.

[premapavarti]

thank you!

i had been tring to find one but here there are none,where i live.

it's very nice of you to do that! _/\_NAMASTE!

Sure there's such a thing is a difficult language, if you approach it from the perspective of someone coming from a particular language.

Anyone coming from a language that at least *tries* to write phonetically will find that say, Chinese, where the character is completely unrelated to how it's pronounced, is more difficult than something very focuses on phonetics, like Turkish.

English is worse even than French? They don't even pronounce letters at the end of words.

[BelialfromAbbadon]

My english dictionary doesn't use some of these symbols, but then again some of the differences between these are so subtle that even I ( a native english speaker ) fail to appreciate them most of the time

english's phonology is very complicated, too many vowels

[mrhnm]

I think he was speaking in term of writing to speech/

Thank you for this series. It is so so helpful.

But I disagree with you about English being a phonetically horrible language. It can be really beautiful.

Maybe you meant "orthographically"?

English is not the hardest language to learn, but it's one of the harder ones to learn to write (if you don't count languages which use logographs.)

The thing is that English spelling is still illogical because there are no consistent rules when it comes to spelling. For an example the sure if following English standard rules should be shure and that is just very simple example.

[Eopyk]

Umm no it is just so that Enlish spelling is ilogical an unphonetic. It needs a update.  I don't why some people from the Uk like yourself think English is the hardest langauge in the world(even if that is a subjective point of view) Maybe some nationalist feelings :P ?

[littleglonia]

there's rules for when to use long vowel sounds and short vowels in english

[shimmiliciousxoxo]

I really appreciate Ur efforts 2 help others learn Hindi. I am American, speak English & about half of the Spanish language, & just a bit of French, Latin, Chinese. I recently began learning Hindi, so I am grateful 4 the opportunity 2 learn online, for $0, & in this format. Your lessons are broken down into bite size segments, which are easier to do "on the run". U R really meeting my needs and I can't thank you enough. Don't stop the good work! Thanks.
