Self-introduction words in English: Hindi meanings and sentence practice
Naam, shehar, padhai aur pasand ke baare mein chhote English sentences banana seekhein. Hindi meanings aur bolne ki practice ke saath.
What you will practice
Aap apna naam, shehar, padhai ya kaam aur ek pasand batakar 30-second ka introduction de paayenge.
Naye college, office ya English practice group mein ek chhota introduction kaafi hota hai. Pehle apne baare mein teen baatein chunein, phir neeche diye phrases se unhein jodein.
Examples mein karta/karti jaise dono Hindi forms hain. Apne liye sahi form chunein; English sentence sabhi ke liye ek jaisa rahega.
Naam se shuru karein, phir ek baat jodein
Apna naam batane ke liye 'My name is...' ya 'I am...' use karein. Sirf 'name' yaad karne ke saath poora phrase bolne ki practice bhi karein.
'I am from...' aapki jagah ya background batata hai. 'I live in...' batata hai ki aap ab kahan rehte hain. Dono shehar alag ho sakte hain.
Baat-cheet ko aage badhayein
Apni padhai, kaam ya hobby mein se ek baat batayein. Phir saamne waale se ek aasaan sawaal poochhein. Har introduction mein umar, phone number ya poora address dena zaroori nahi hai.
'Nice to meet you' pehli mulaqat mein achha closing phrase hai. Naam samajh na aaye to dobara poochhna bilkul theek hai; andaaza lagane ki zaroorat nahi.
