    Written Hindi: or ?

    Posted by Richa
    Yet another post for Red Marker Blogathon.
    If some word/phrase/idiom/spelling/syntax/punctuation incorrectly used drives you up the wall,
    blog about it.
    The only rule is that you must explain what is wrong with the usage that it bothers you so
    and you must also explain the proper usage.

    Today I am talking, er, writing about a mistake that even native-Hindi speakers make all the time
    while writing Hindi. This mistake has been driving me up to the wall since I was a kid.
    The mistake being interchanging the words and (sorry have to do this one in Devnagari
    script. Cant explain this in Latin alphabet system). A mistake in matra usually irritates me a lot
    but this mistake takes the cake. So what is the difference between the two, you ask?
    is a conjunction and is equivalent to that
    is a postposition and is equivalent to of
    For example:
    |
    Dhvani said that Pratham has the key of that lock.
    So is used to connect two phrases like and [] (conjunction),
    while is used to connect two nouns (or a noun and a pronoun) like and
    (postposition). Simple, no?
    Anyway, thats all from my corner on Red Marker Blogathon. If you have, your own peeves with
    something you dont like in any language, do share.
    P.S.: I am confused about usage of equivalent. Whether it should be is equivalent to that, or
    is the equivalent of that? Or, are both correct? For some reason, I am always confused
    when it comes to English.

    I don't know Hindi, but I do know that Hindi does not have definite articles (that is, they
    have no word "the"). So the other comment is wrong about that at least.
    Ki = Of
    Kii = The
    ki kii = of the

    means that or or. It is used to denote reason or to denote or or to report indirect speech. It
    is useful for connecting to parts of a sentence together. I was thinking THAT you would be
    coming. See how the that connects the I was thinking with the You would be coming.? It
    is an important word to learn. This lesson shows several examples of using the Hindi word for
    that in a sentence.
