Hindiiiii?

I met a very enthusiastic lady who wanted me to teach Hindi to her tenth standard daughter.

And I had tough time teaching her the difference between ’ब’ and ‘भ’.

It was memorable to teach her pronounce correctly – ‘ भारतीय जीवन बीमा निगम’, because, she would call it ‘बारतीय जीवन भीमा निगम’ !!!

कौन कहता है, हिंदी सरल है ? कम-से-कम मेरी वह विद्यार्थीनी तो नहीं ही कहेगी !!!
