Parsing in Hindi
Posted on 21. Jul, 2012 by Nitin Kumar in Hindi Language
Parsing (पद परिचय - Pad Parichay) is an important part of any linguistic study. It helps us to understand, how the different elements of a sentence are structured in a grammatical sense .
In Hindi, the various elements of a sentence are well organized and can provide detailed information about grammatical elements such as संज्ञा (Sangya – Noun), सर्वनाम (Sarvanaam – Pronoun), विशेषण (Visheshan – Adjective), क्रिया (Kriya – Verb), क्रिया – विशेषण (Kriya Visheshan – Adverb), विस्मयादिबोदक (Vismayaadibodhak – Exclamation) etc. For example, Hindi does not have articles unlike English (a, an and the) and declension of verbs depend on grammatical gender and number.
