Wow congrats. I keep going back and forth with Vietnamese but can't seem to stay on it for long enough.

Yeah. Truth to be told, sometimes, it feels getting bored, especially now with all these premium stuff. Hindi being a language i already knew little helped a lot though.

How's your grasp on the language? Do you feel like you're able to hold an extended conversation?

[โ€“] redw0rm@kerala.party 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I feel like i can almost understand what others say (80% ish ) , but still not very good at crafting sentences for extended conversations purely in hindi itself. Maybe it also does have something with me watching hindi movies too, but barely talk in hindi with others.

Well congrats on the progress you've attained so far! It'll come with time and practice, goodluck!

Well done. I've just started learning Hindi. The Devanagari script is tough though. Especially with all the diacritics and subtle differences between similar letters.
