Hello Listeners !
Today i gonna introduce you The subjunctive mood verb in Hindi.
Introduction
The subjunctive mood is very common in Hindi.
The titles of many popular movies contain the subjunctive mood, such as:
“जाने तू या जाने न” – “Whether you know it or not”
“कल हो न हो” – “Tomorrow may or may not be”, i.e. there might not be any tomorrow
“रंग दे बसंती” – “Color (me) basanti” (a color signifying a patriotic sacrifice)
If you visit India, you will probably encounter signs that use the subjunctive mood, such as:
“कृपया मंदिर के बहार अपने जूते उतार दें” – “Please remove your shoes outside the temple”
“कृपया रेलिंग से दुरी बनाये रखें” – “Please keep a distance from the railing”
If you fly on an airplane in India, you will hear announcements that use the subjunctive mood, such as:
सभी यात्रियों से निवेदन है कि वे अपनी कुर्सी की पेटी बांध लें – “We request that all passengers fasten their seat belt”
सभी यात्रियों से अनुरोध है कि वे अपना सामान अकेला न छोड़ें – “We request that all passengers not leave their baggage unattended”
You will probably hear some common expressions that involve the subjunctive mood, such as:
जो हो सो हो – “Whatever will be will be”
मैंने उसे सुझाव दिया कि वह वकील से बात करे – I suggested that he talk to a lawyer In the previous example, the verb बात करे is in the subjunctive mood and is in the subordinate clause कि वह वकील से बात करे. It is “unreal” because it is a suggestion, not an actual event.
उसने मुझे बताया कि उसने वकील से बात की In the previous example, the indicative verb बात की was used because the speaker is describing an actual event.
Hope you enjoying this episode. I will try to cover maximum possibilities of subjunctive mood in coming episodes. Thank you.

“Me suena a chino” en España quiere decir que “no entiendo nada de lo que dices”, eso me recuerda una experiencia que tuve en mi primer viaje a China cuando visité una aldea rural donde nadie hablaba inglés y mucho menos español.

“什么？” 王后对魔镜大喊，
“谁比我更美？” 
“白雪公主。” 魔镜说。
"What?" the queen shouted at her mirror.
"Who is more beautiful than I am?"
"Snow White," the mirror said.

王后非常生气。
“大家都说白雪公主很美！
说她很善良，很完美！
我可不信！” 
The queen was very angry.
"Everyone says Snow White is so pretty!
She's so nice, so perfect!
I don't believe it!"

那天晚上，王后在村庄里和猎人见面。
猎人带着一把斧子。
王后在他耳边说了几句悄悄话。
然后给了他一些金币。
That night the queen met a hunter in the village.
He carried an ax.
The queen whispered in his ear.
Then she gave him some gold coins.
