For more details about learning Hindi, please visit Review of Rocket Hindi.
Let me start out by saying that Hindi is a fascinating as well as challenging language to learn. Anybody who tells you differently is trying to sell you a bill of goods. Hindi is one of the most widely spoken languages all over the world. Mostly found in India and Southeast Asia, it is spoken by over 600 million people. This article is going to cover a few things that you will need to know before attempting to learn this language.
At the start I mentioned that this was a challenging language. The reason for this is because it is written in Devanagari script, which is much different from Arabic script. This script consists of symbols that are quite foreign to people who speak languages like English. While quite different from in actual design, it is more similar to a language like Hebrew which was derived from the Phoenician script. While quite different, one can see the similarities.
There are many, and I do mean MANY resources online available for learning the Hindi language. And thus, it becomes quite a chore to decide which one to take advantage of. The reason this is a problem is because each person responds to different forms of teaching. For example, some people prefer to listen to audio tapes while they’re driving in their car. This way they’re not restricted to one place. Other people prefer to be able to fully concentrate on what they’re doing and would rather have software for their PC or a DVD for their TV. So you need to first sit down and figure out what you feel is the right fit for you.
But if you really want to learn the language, I mean REALLY learn it the RIGHT way, go visit a Hindi speaking country. Bring a Hindi-English dictionary with you and rough it. Yeah, it’s going to be tough at first, but stay there for a few weeks and you’ll be surprised at how well you’ve progressed in that short time JUST from speaking with the people there. Like they say, there is nothing like field experience. And this is the best kind you can get.
In my signature you’ll find a review of a great resource for learning Hindi. These people are masters at teaching many languages. I think you’ll find this review most helpful.
