[8/17/2009 6:16:24 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Oh, You have some patience- I am already fed up of my computer, feel like banging it against the wall [8/17/2009 6:16:49 PM] Peter says: Don't do it! .....

[8/17/2009 6:19:51 PM] Sompong says: Peter kahan hai? [8/17/2009 6:19:56 PM] Sompong says: (bow) [8/17/2009 6:20:11 PM] Peter says: good.. bahut achchha!

Fine day, fine weather; auspicious day, happy day [8/17/2009 6:28:51 PM] Peter says: सु su = good, well, excellent, excellently: neat, elegant, beautiful, beautifully;... [8/17/2009 6:29:31 PM] Peter says: "su" is a common prefix. [8/17/2009 6:30:02 PM] Martin says: Namaste [8/17/2009 6:30:12 PM] Peter says: Namaste Martin...

I haven't heard it Peter- even if it can convey your intent [8/17/2009 6:35:55 PM] Peter says: OK.... Today the weather is good/fine [8/17/2009 6:36:19 PM] Peter says: I took a guess at the sentence structure... [8/17/2009 6:37:19 PM] Peter says: This is what can happen when you go away... (random hindi :) [8/17/2009 6:37:46 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Su adds weight but like e.g. swachh means clean so you can say su-swachh etc. but as I write this, I am thinking of words with su- My computer is very slow and I doubt I can access any site- In fact I wanted to get some help from you regrds that [8/17/2009 6:39:53 PM] Peter says: Slow Internet access does not necessarily mean that you "computer" is slow.. ie. It doesn't necessarily mean that your Operating System is slow.. It may just be a slow net -connection [8/17/2009 6:39:56 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: aaj mausam bahut suhana hai [8/17/2009 6:40:20 PM] Peter says: aaj mausam bahut sahana hai... ok... [8/17/2009 6:42:37 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: yes, that in part is true, but it seems some months ago, one LimeWire got installed(mostly programmes onthe computers of ppl like me get installed of their own accord and I am sure and have learnt from net, is eating away the band width as such here on this island, I have a dial up connection- ask hindi side by side- so that we don't miss on our lessons [8/17/2009 6:43:25 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: mausam means weather and suhana means pleasant [8/17/2009 6:44:07 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: swagat means welcome and su-swagat means more than welcome [8/17/2009 6:44:12 PM] Peter says: सहन ?spelling? [8/17/2009 6:44:40 PM] Peter says: ah... su-swagat... (a good one to know) [8/17/2009 6:44:44 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: sehen means tolerate [8/17/2009 6:44:53 PM] Sompong says: Haha..the most welcome? [8/17/2009 6:45:25 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: su-prabhat means beautiful morning. Prabhat means morning [8/17/2009 6:46:10 PM] Peter says: Sompong.. "more than welcome" means, "you are not just "welcome"; you are MORE than welcome!" [8/17/2009 6:46:30 PM] Peter says: a "special" version of "you are welcome" [8/17/2009 6:46:32 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: main aur dukh sehen nahin kar sakta- I can't tolerate more grief/pain [8/17/2009 6:47:06 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: su-swagat means bending forward a little more  :) [8/17/2009 6:47:50 PM] Peter says: bending more, as in bowing more? [8/17/2009 6:48:27 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: yes bowing really and jokingly bending forward almost to the verge of toppling over [8/17/2009 6:48:47 PM] Peter says: yes.. I did see the amusing side :) [8/17/2009 6:48:47 PM] Sompong says: (y) [8/17/2009 6:49:16 PM] Peter says: main aur dukh sehen nahin kar sakta- I can't tolerate more grief/pain Navneet, are you talking about your computer again? [8/17/2009 6:50:00 PM] Sompong says: Okay, I am finding out a special English dictionay [8/17/2009 6:52:05 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: No just used the words Sehen to show its usage [8/17/2009 6:52:27 PM] Peter says: :) ... [8/17/2009 6:52:57 PM] Peter says: sehen.. I can't find it by that spelling.. is this the correct devnag? सेहेन [8/17/2009 6:54:08 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: सुहावना, सुहाना [8/17/2009 6:54:50 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: सहन [8/17/2009 6:55:53 PM] Peter says: This looks like the one... सुहाना suhaanaa adj. (f. -ī), Pleasing, pleasant, agreeable, charming, becoming, graceful. [8/17/2009 6:55:58 PM] Peter says: thanks [8/17/2009 6:57:53 PM] Peter says: I think it can be a verb too ? [8/17/2009 6:58:06 PM] Peter says: to be pleasing, etc. [8/17/2009 6:59:06 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: ऋतु means season- Sheet ritu bahut suhani hoti hai. Winter season is very pleasant [8/17/2009 6:59:55 PM] Peter says: ah suhani.. using the prefix su (it seems) [8/17/2009 7:01:18 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: no suhana is an adjective- how will you use it as verb? All words ending with na are not verbs [8/17/2009 7:03:53 PM] Peter says: ( three dictionaries mention it as a verb also... but maybe is it a regional usage, or just simply archaic) [8/17/2009 7:04:03 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: I don't think su- is a prefix in suhani because hani हानि means loss and it's opposite is labh- लाभ which means profit [8/17/2009 7:04:28 PM] Peter says: ok,, good.... [8/17/2009 7:05:20 PM] Peter says: Re your computer. If your OS (Operating System) is becoming corrupted, or already is corrupted. Sometimes the best option is a full re-install. Chasing down "problems" can become quite futile in a lot of cases... [8/17/2009 7:05:23 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: सुहानी here matra is deergh [8/17/2009 7:05:37 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: you know what is a matra [8/17/2009 7:06:07 PM] Peter says: I think I do.. it is the "accent" mark [8/17/2009 7:06:59 PM] Peter says: ा ि ी ु ू ृ ॄ ॅ े ै ॉ ॊ ो ौ [8/17/2009 7:07:45 PM] Sompong says: What is that, Peter? [8/17/2009 7:07:47 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: yes मात्रा here means accent literally it means quantity. Dhoodh mein paani ki matra zyada/adhik hai. The quantity of water in milk is more [8/17/2009 7:08:16 PM] Peter says: Sompong: they are the accent marks for the different sounds in the Devanagari script [8/17/2009 7:09:10 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Laghu and Deergh are two forms of each accent in hindi [8/17/2009 7:09:21 PM] Sompong says: Do you know how to accent each item,Peter? [8/17/2009 7:09:29 PM] Peter says: ma = म maa = मा [8/17/2009 7:10:10 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Laghu as such means small and deergh means long- Deergh aayu- lambi umar- long life [8/17/2009 7:10:41 PM] Sompong says: After three months, we all have to get in the Hindi conference. [8/17/2009 7:11:33 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: laghu viram- comma, deergh viraam- full stop which actually is a vertical line in Hindi simialr to a capital "I" in English [8/17/2009 7:12:04 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Am I of some help or little too fast? [8/17/2009 7:13:53 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: the example above are OK in a way but ि ी ु ू are better examples of laghu and dheergh accents [8/17/2009 7:14:00 PM] Peter says: laghu viram ( a virama ) a virama supresses the full consonant and makes the half consonant I think.. [8/17/2009 7:14:26 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Viram means pause [8/17/2009 7:14:36 PM] Peter says: ah.. interesting.. [8/17/2009 7:15:48 PM] Peter says: ahhh... I think I know what you mean now.. [8/17/2009 7:16:31 PM] Sompong says: Aha..I don't know now. [8/17/2009 7:16:38 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: सुहावना, सुहाना ऋतु, हानि, लाभ, सुहानी, मात्रा। Laghu and dheergh viraam examples [8/17/2009 7:16:45 PM] Peter says: । = laghu viraam ॥ = deergh viraam [8/17/2009 7:17:10 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: No in hindi Comma is same as comma in English [8/17/2009 7:17:57 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Dheergh viraam is called Poorn Viraam in Hindi- Poorn means full/complete [8/17/2009 7:18:39 PM] Peter says: ok,, Yes...I thought that classic devanagari did not have a commma.. Is । a laghu viraam ? [8/17/2009 7:19:31 PM] Sompong says: This is interesting.. [8/17/2009 7:19:45 PM] Peter says: :) and the script looks nice too. [8/17/2009 7:19:56 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: No । this is a Poorn viram [8/17/2009 7:20:01 PM] Peter says: ok... [8/17/2009 7:20:12 PM] Peter says: poorn viraam = full stop ? [8/17/2009 7:20:27 PM] Sompong says: nahin [8/17/2009 7:20:40 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: what nahin Sompong- yes [8/17/2009 7:20:47 PM] Peter says: Sompong :) [8/17/2009 7:21:55 PM] Sompong says: deergh viraam=poorn viraam? [8/17/2009 7:22:01 PM] Peter says: my understanding is that । is for the end of a sentence, and ॥ is for the end of a paragraph. Is this correct? [8/17/2009 7:22:06 PM] Sompong says: I am confusing now. [8/17/2009 7:22:35 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: I still can't get around to write Poorn on my computer- It's written as pa ko baRRa oo shivling wala Na aur oopar ra- Can you get it? [8/17/2009 7:23:00 PM] Peter says: Sompong (if you don't mind the engish correction) "I am confused now" [8/17/2009 7:23:48 PM] Peter says: do you mean the word poorn ? [8/17/2009 7:24:04 PM] Sompong says: poorn = full? [8/17/2009 7:25:15 PM] Peter says: पूर्ण [8/17/2009 7:25:25 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Yes Peter can you understand what I am saying and let me know how to write ra on top of ulta na- ulta means the one which is written hanging from the ceiling [8/17/2009 7:26:05 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Yes, also tell me the key combination my computer does not accept ra on top of this Na [8/17/2009 7:26:21 PM] Sompong says: I have to leave five minutes to have a concentration. [8/17/2009 7:26:32 PM] Peter says: ah... ulta (sounds a lot like the english word ultra ...and altitude [8/17/2009 7:26:56 PM] Peter says: Which OS are you using Navneet? [8/17/2009 7:27:11 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Ulta means reverse- seedha means straight [8/17/2009 7:28:48 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: उल्टा सीधा [8/17/2009 7:29:57 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Windows XP- and have support for HIndi- Mangal font but have yet to figure out all keys even with On-screen keyboard help [8/17/2009 7:29:58 PM] Peter says: straight सीधा seedhaa [8/17/2009 7:30:10 PM] Peter says: ok.. XP; same as me. [8/17/2009 7:30:52 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: chamgadaRR peRR se ulta latak raha thha- The bat was hanging up side dwon from the tree.  :D [8/17/2009 7:31:26 PM] Peter says: I assume you are using a keyboard overlay to produce devanagari ? Are you using a keyboard overlay? ... and if so, which one? [8/17/2009 7:32:36 PM] Peter says: HIndi- Mangal comes with Windows when you Install EastAsian scripts. [8/17/2009 7:32:53 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: चमगादड़ पेड़ से उल्टा लटक रहा था। [8/17/2009 7:33:05 PM] Peter says: but to type Devanagari, you need to activate a keyboard overlay. [8/17/2009 7:33:30 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: But still you got to know the keys Ok let me try [8/17/2009 7:34:18 PM] Peter says: If you are using the Hindi Keyboard overlay, it is based on the standard native HIndi layout. [8/17/2009 7:34:28 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: पूर्ण OK Got it [8/17/2009 7:34:37 PM] Peter says: :) [8/17/2009 7:35:13 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: So far I was using TTF fonts- [8/17/2009 7:35:32 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Sompong bore ho gayi ho kya?

[8/17/2009 7:36:58 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Do you like your Hindi teacher?  :) [8/17/2009 7:38:05 PM] Peter says: बोरे bore ? [8/17/2009 7:39:34 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: बोर, this is an English word used in Hindi as such [8/17/2009 7:40:00 PM] Peter says: ahh :) [8/17/2009 7:40:36 PM] Peter says: I think the official linguistic term is a "loan word". [8/17/2009 7:41:06 PM] Peter says: All languages have loan words. [8/17/2009 7:41:48 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Actually Hindi is very flexibule and u can use any English word anywhere in the sentence, if you don't know the right Hindi word- In spoken Hindi atleast in the cities as many as 20-30% words used are from English [8/17/2009 7:41:58 PM] Sompong says: Peter bahut achcha hain. [8/17/2009 7:43:11 PM] Peter says: I have seen a lot of "english" written in devanagari... even in the movies.. on signs. [8/17/2009 7:44:11 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: loaned, borrowed, adapted or adopted, it's all the same- Peteronce it's the only one you know [8/17/2009 7:44:17 PM] Peter says: टाटा ट्रक Tata truck [8/17/2009 7:44:52 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: But TATA is a name of the manufacturer [8/17/2009 7:44:59 PM] Peter says: yes...

[8/17/2009 7:51:38 PM] Peter says: ... and it seems I can expect it... [8/17/2009 7:52:43 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: meri to legs mein walk karne ke baad bahut pain hota hai. My legs pain a lot after a walk.. What do you say to that Peter- but this is how many people even my wife will talk to me [8/17/2009 7:54:19 PM] Peter says: I grew up in a similar environment.. [8/17/2009 7:54:50 PM] Peter says: Both my parents spoke Italian and English interspersed... [8/17/2009 7:55:04 PM] Peter says: a mix of both... [8/17/2009 7:55:06 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: what language was your conversation interspersed with? [8/17/2009 7:55:58 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: So u answered b4 I asked, but are they both Italian?

[8/17/2009 7:56:57 PM] Peter says: One of my Hindi ambitions it to be able to read the entire 130 (plus) verses of maadhushaalaa, so I need to get both sides of the language for that; the old and the new.. [8/17/2009 7:59:21 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Oh- great. but I can tell you of some more good ones- [8/17/2009 7:59:34 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: better one  :) :) Sompong may prod me again [8/17/2009 7:59:35 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: chalo ab khana khate hain [8/17/2009 8:02:18 PM] Peter says: Let's go and have dinner?

[8/17/2009 8:06:08 PM] Sompong says: (d) [8/17/2009 8:07:11 PM] Peter says: ah.... of course.... I was so busy trying to translate it I didn't realize it was a "live" comment... [8/17/2009 8:07:27 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: आज्ञा है, अनुमति है, इज़्ज़ात है [8/17/2009 8:08:14 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Bye- [8/17/2009 8:08:31 PM] Peter says: bye...

[8/17/2009 8:18:13 PM] Peter says: su-swagat [8/17/2009 8:19:29 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: इज़ाज़त, पहले गलत लिखा था। [8/17/2009 8:21:32 PM] Sompong says: su- swagat...What does it mean, Peter? [8/17/2009 8:22:03 PM] Peter says: you are more than welcome. [8/17/2009 8:22:11 PM] Sompong says: su..can be a prefix for swagat? [8/17/2009 8:22:26 PM] Peter says: su can be a prefix for many things. [8/17/2009 8:23:13 PM] Sompong says: Are you sure? [8/17/2009 8:25:31 PM] Peter says: based on a dictionary reference. The English may be a bit complicated for you.. It is a "particle" which is prefixed to "substantives" almost ad libitum. [8/17/2009 8:26:04 PM] Peter says: ad libitum is Latin for "at liberty" .. = whenever they feel like it. [8/17/2009 8:26:35 PM] Sompong says: Navneet guruji wrote Hindi only not to translate to Hindi-English. [8/17/2009 8:27:14 PM] Sompong says: I am under typhoon experience now.

Suvidha- Convenience [8/17/2009 8:41:57 PM] Peter says: su as a prefix seems to represent the "very good, excellent, best, most" version of something.. Is this so Navneet ? [8/17/2009 8:43:28 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: susati- Laziness  :) but this word though used in Hindi doesn't have Sanskrit as it's origin, Subha- Morning- This too has come from middle-east languages [8/17/2009 8:44:51 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: If the word is of Sanskrit origin then Su- will stand for enhancing it's meaning [8/17/2009 8:46:01 PM] Peter says: ok, thanks...

[8/17/2009 9:17:16 PM] Sompong says: Pls concentrate in your lesson. [8/17/2009 9:17:26 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Sompong hasn't read Ramaayan. Has she? [8/17/2009 9:17:43 PM] Peter says: I like the hanging "r" version... gardan.. and it is less to type. [8/17/2009 9:18:00 PM] Sompong says: I just break a bit. [8/17/2009 9:18:59 PM] Navneet Bakshi says: Certain variants of spellings are accepted in Hindi because it's spoken over a vast area [8/17/2009 9:19:58 PM] Peter says: yes...
