English words for college: Class and group-project practice
Class, assignment aur group project ki baat English mein karein. College ke zaroori words, Hindi meanings aur simple practice yahan seekhein.
What you will practice
Aap apni class, assignment ki deadline aur group project ke ek kaam ke baare mein English mein baat kar paayenge.
College mein kai English words pehle se sunai dete hain, lekin unhein poore sentence mein bolna alag practice maangta hai. Yeh guide class aur group work ki familiar situations se shuru hoti hai.
Har college apne courses aur exams ke naam alag rakh sakta hai. Apne timetable par likhe naam rakhein aur neeche diye sentence patterns mein unhein jodein.
Class aur kaam ke naam samjhein
'Subject' padhai ka ek topic hai, jaise economics. 'Course' poori degree ya kisi ek topic ki padhai ho sakta hai. 'Lecture' mein teacher topic samjhaate hain; 'assignment' padhai ka diya hua kaam hai.
'Notes' aapki likhi hui zaroori baatein hain. Notes copy karne ya share karne se pehle classmate se poochhein. Kisi topic ko dobara samajhne ke liye simple sawaal poochhna useful practice hai.
Deadline aur group work par baat karein
'Deadline' kaam jama karne ki aakhri tareekh ya samay hai. 'Submit' ka matlab yahan kaam jama karna hai. Date ke saath time bhi poochhein, kyunki sirf Friday kehne se exact deadline saaf nahi hoti.
Group project mein ek chhota kaam chunein aur batayein ki aap kya karenge. 'I can make the slides' jaisa sentence aapki zimmedaari saaf karta hai. Madad chahiye to kaam ka naam lekar poochhein.
