Let's begin by learning how to say 'I' and 'he/she' in Hindi. The word for 'I' is 'मैं'. It is pronounced 'main'. The word for 'he', 'she', or 'that person' is 'वह', which is pronounced 'voh'. Hindi does not have a separate word for 'he' or 'she' here; 'वह' is used for both, depending on the context.
This is an opening excerpt. Full lessons add untimed questions and explanations. Teaching and pronunciation await fluent-speaker review.
