Hindi - Good Morning


We just learned a few ways to say hello and goodbye in Hindi, like नमस्ते (namaste) and अलविदा (alavida).

Sometimes you might want to say good morning, good afternoon, or good night.

Habari is a way to say hello that means "How is the news", Za means "for", and Asubuhi means "morning".
So sometimes to say good morning people will say Habari za asubuhi, which really means "How is the news for morning".

Good Morning - शुभ प्रभात (shubh prabhaat) - sounds like shoo-b p-drah-b-hah-t 文A

Good Day - नमस्कार (namaskaar) - sounds like nah-m-skah-r 文A

Good Evening - सुसंध्या (susandhya) - sounds like soo-sen-d-yah 文A

Good Night - शुभ रात्रि (shubh raatri) - sounds like shoo-b-rah-t-ree 文A
