     Nitin Kumar:

     @Srikant @Srikant: You are right about the gender of both nouns though examples must be other way round.
     Paani gir raha tha. Baarish pad rahi thi.

   Srikant:

   Please advise when to use “मुझे शादी नहीं करनी ” vs “मुझे शादी नहीं करना ”

   Thanks
   ( I think both have some context meaning)

   • 

      

     Nitin Kumar:

     @Srikant @Srikant: Only “मुझे शादी नहीं करनी” is correct. Because शादी is feminine noun so verb verb declension should be करनी.

   Akhil:

   Hello Nitin,
   Which one is correct?
   Is baat ka sense banta hai. इस बात का सेंस बनता है।
   Or
   Is baat ki sense banti hai. इस बात की सेंस बनती है।
   Is sense masculine or feminine?

   • 

      

     Nitin Kumar:

     @Akhil sense is considered feminine noun by some people and masculine noun by others in Hinglish.
     So both may be correct, depending on who do you ask.

    Dan Nave:

    I take exception to you using a ‘R’ in the romanized Hindi words for the ‘R’ sound. Definitely a bad practice. When you learn Hindi, there are thee ‘D’ sounds and three “R’ sounds. Although one of these looks like the Devanagari D with a dot under it, it is definitely an R sound and an ‘R’ character. (eg: Lakadi)

    venki:

    God help those trying to learn the Hindi gender. It was a cause of utter frustration in my school days. Generally Indian languages are rule based and systematic but this aspect of Hindi does not have a rule. Very surprising. BTW, how do you decide if a non-living word has a gender or not?
