In English, the polite imperative is formed by saying, “Please do this …”, “Please sit down” etc. In Hindi the polite imperative is formed by adding the suffix \u0907\u090f<\/strong>\u00a0to the verb.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of examples:<\/p>\n

Please go : \u091c\u093e\u0907\u090f<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please eat : \u0916\u093e\u0907\u090f<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please come : \u0906\u0907\u090f<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the phrases above, you’ve probably noticed that \u0915\u0943\u092a\u092f\u093e<\/strong><\/span> (which means please in Hindi) wasn’t necessary to form the polite imperative. Just the suffix \u0907\u090f <\/strong>is needed to form the polite imperative.<\/p>\n

To form the\u00a0intimate imperative (\u0924\u0942<\/strong>), just take the stem of the verb.<\/p>\n

Come! : \u0906<\/strong><\/p>\n

Go! : \u091c\u093e<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eat! : \u0916\u093e<\/strong><\/p>\n

To form the familiar imperative (\u0924\u0941\u092e<\/strong>), add the suffix \u0913<\/strong> to the stem of the verb.<\/p>\n

Come!\u00a0: \u0906\u0913<\/strong><\/p>\n

Go! : \u091c\u093e\u0913<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eat! : \u0916\u093e\u0913<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are some exceptions to this rule. Verbs that end in vowel \u0908\u00a0<\/strong>will end in suffix \u091c\u093f\u090f<\/strong> instead of \u0908\u090f<\/strong> in the polite imperative.<\/p>\n

Please drink : \u092a\u0940\u091c\u093f\u090f<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please do (work) : (\u0915\u093e\u092e<\/strong>) \u0915\u0940\u091c\u093f\u090f <\/strong><\/p>\n

Please take (tea) or Please have some tea : (\u091a\u093e\u092f<\/strong>) \u0932\u0940\u091c\u093f\u090f<\/strong><\/p>\n

I put the words “work” and “tea” in parentheses in both the English and Hindi, to show that any noun can be substituted.<\/p>\n
