Scenario: Let’s say you are trying to get bus tickets to a destination and a tout is trying to sell you scalped tickets. Despite your repeated refusal, he insists that you should buy the “first class” tickets from him at “half price.” In such a situation, you can say:

(Patli gali se nikal ja varna police ko bulaaoongi)
Better make a quick exit or I’ll call the police.

Scenario: You are working on a very challenging problem. You have a test in a couple of days and you need to be prepared. You have tried calling friends for help, and tried every trick in the book. You turn to your friend, frustrated, and say:

I’ve been stuck on the same problem for 2 days — I’m really frustrated.

दही (dahi) = yogurt

Scenario: You send your little brother out to buy a tub of ice-cream on a hot day. On his way back, he stops by his friend’s house for a quick game of street cricket. When he gets home, the ice-cream has melted. Really annoyed, you scold him:

अरे तुझे चार पैसे की अकल नहीं है क्या — गर्मी में कोई आइस क्रीम छोड़के जाता है क्या?

Do you have any sense? Who leaves ice-cream out in the heat?
