THREE FUN FACTS ABOUT HINDI
1. Each letter of the Hindi alphabet has its own independent and distinct sound
As a result, Hindi words are pronounced exactly as they are written, making the Hindi language easy to learn.
2. English has borrowed a great number of words from Hindi
Examples of Hindi loanwords include avatar, bandanna, bungalow, dinghy, guru, jungle, khaki, karma, loot, mantra, nirvana, punch, pyjamas, sorbet, shampoo, thug, typhoon and yoga.
3. India’s Hindi-speaking regions celebrate Hindi Day annually on 14th September
Hindi Day commemorates the adoption of Hindi as an official language by the Indian Constituent Assembly in 1965.
