Welcome to Gujarati! Today, you’ll learn to introduce yourself and identify another person using two building blocks: 'હું' (hũ) meaning 'I', and 'તે' (te) meaning 'that person'—which can refer to he, she, or simply 'that'. Both are important for very basic conversation.
This is an opening excerpt. Full lessons add untimed questions and explanations. Teaching and pronunciation await fluent-speaker review.
