As you continue to progress in Hindi, it will no doubt be useful to you to be able to ask questions about the language in Hindi itself, rather than having to resort to English for explanations. Some basic terminology first:
| शब्द | (m. noun) Word |
| वाक्य | (m. noun) Sentence |
| व्याकरण | (m. noun) Grammar |
| व्यंजन | (m. noun) Consonant |
| स्वर | (m. noun) Vowel |
| संज्ञा | (m. noun) Noun |
| विशेषण | (m. noun) Adjective |
| क्रिया | (f. noun) Verb |
If you get stuck on a word, you could always look it up in your शब्दकोश (dictionary) to find the मतलब (meaning), or try to figure it out from प्रसंग (context).
Here are some other words about words:
| भाषा | (f. noun) Language |
| भाषिकी | (f. noun) Linguistics |
| रिसाला | (m. noun) Magazine |
| अख़बार | (m. noun) Newspaper |
| कविता | (f. noun) Poem |
| कहानी | (f. noun) Story |
| अनुवाद | (m. noun) Translation |
