Some time back, we have taken the topic of cases in Hindi though it was very concise. In this post, I would like to explain the objective case in Hindi.<\/p>\n
Objective case is called \u0915\u0930\u094d\u092e \u0915\u093e\u0930\u0915 (Karm Kaarak). This is important topic as it helps to differentiate the subject and object of the verb in the sentence. The verbs can be an intransitive or transitive, which have been covered in the last topic.<\/p>\n
The objective case in Hindi can be found with questions which ask for “\u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e” (Kya – What) and “\u0915\u093f\u0938\u0915\u094b” (to whom). These question could be formed with \u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e + verb? and \u0915\u093f\u0938\u0915\u094b + verb?. The answer is the objective case.<\/p>\n
Now, lets have a look on the objective case with some following examples:<\/p>\n
A: If the object is non-living thing. <\/strong><\/p>\n The sentences where the object are non-living are relatively easier. The objective case usually come between subject and verb.<\/p>\n 1. \u0915\u092e\u0932 \u0917\u093e\u0921\u093c\u0940 \u091a\u0932\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964 – \u00a0Kamal gaadi chalata hai – Kamal drives a vehicle.<\/p>\n If you ask the question as mentioned above, \u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e + \u091a\u0932\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948? or \u0915\u093f\u0938\u0915\u094b + \u091a\u0932\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948? – What does he drive?<\/p>\n The answer is the objective case is “\u0917\u093e\u0921\u093c\u0940” (Gaadi – Vehicle)<\/p>\n Similarly,<\/p>\n 2. \u0938\u0940\u0924\u093e \u0938\u094d\u0935\u0947\u091f\u0930 \u092c\u0941\u0928\u0924\u0940 \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n The objective case in this sentence is “\u0938\u094d\u0935\u0947\u091f\u0930” (Svaetar – Sweater)<\/p>\n 3. \u0928\u093f\u0924\u093f\u0928 \u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915 \u092a\u0922\u093c\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n The objective case is “\u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915” (Pustak – Book)<\/p>\n B: If the object is living thing. <\/strong><\/p>\n If the object is a living thing then the object is followed by “\u0915\u094b” (Ko – to) as explained in the following :<\/p>\n 1. \u0932\u0921\u093c\u0915\u093e \u092c\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940 \u0915\u094b \u092e\u093e\u0930\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n The question would be, \u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e + \u092e\u093e\u0930\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948? or \u0915\u093f\u0938\u0915\u094b + \u092e\u093e\u0930\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948? – What do they ?<\/p>\n Here, the object case is, \u00a0object + “\u0915\u094b” (Ko – to). The object in this sentence is “\u092c\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940” (Billi – Cat).<\/p>\n So, the objective case is “\u092c\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940 \u0915\u094b” (Billi ko – to cat) as \u092c\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940 is an animal.<\/p>\n Similarly,<\/p>\n 2. \u0915\u092e\u0932\u093e \u0938\u0940\u0924\u093e \u0915\u094b \u092c\u0941\u0932\u093e\u0924\u0940 \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n The objective case in this “\u0938\u0940\u0924\u093e \u0915\u094b” (Sita ko – to Sita) as \u0938\u0940\u0924\u093e is a person.<\/p>\n 3. \u0928\u093f\u0924\u093f\u0928 \u0917\u094b\u092a\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u094b \u092a\u0922\u093e\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n The objective case in this “\u0917\u094b\u092a\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u094b” (Gopal ko – to Sita) as \u0917\u094b\u092a\u093e\u0932 is a person.<\/p>\n C: If there are two objects in a sentence.<\/strong><\/p>\n When there is two objects in the sentence, you need to identify the object which would make the objective case. This can be determined as explained below:<\/p>\n 1. \u0928\u093f\u0924\u093f\u0928 \u0917\u094b\u092a\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u094b \u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915 \u092a\u0922\u093e\u0924\u093e \u0939\u0948\u0964<\/p>\n “\u0917\u094b\u092a\u093e\u0932” and “\u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915” are two objects of the sentence.<\/p>\n One is direct object (which usu usually come before the verb) and an indirect object (which usually come just after the subject). Here also, you must identify whether the object if they are living or non-living. Put the “\u0915\u094b” after the living object(s).<\/p>\n D: If a place is mentioned in the sentence, then it is the objective case.<\/strong><\/p>\n This can be determined by asking question with “\u0915\u0939\u093e\u0901” (Kahan – Where) + verb. This is explained below:<\/p>\n 1. \u092a\u093f\u0924\u093e \u091c\u0940 \u0926\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940 \u0917\u090f \u0939\u0948\u0902 – Pita ji dilli gaye hain – Father has gone to Delhi.<\/p>\n Now, if you ask \u0915\u0939\u093e\u0901 \u0917\u090f \u0939\u0948\u0902? Kahan gaye hain? – Where has he gone?<\/p>\n The answer is “\u0926\u093f\u0932\u094d\u0932\u0940” (Dilli – Delhi) which is the objective case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Some time back, we have taken the topic of cases in Hindi though it was very concise.
