Marathi has three genders like English. Masculine i.e. पुल्लिंग (pulliMg ) and Feminine i.e. स्त्रीलिंग (strIliMg ) and neuter i.e. नपुसकलिंग (napusakaliMg)
While speaking any language we tend to use short cuts of verb forms. Using such short forms is good to sound more like a native speaker.

Difference between आम्ही(AmhI) and आपण(ApaN)
आम्ही(AmhI) is used when listener is not included in referred group.
e.g if a boy went to a party with his family. Then he will tell his friend as
We went to party -> आम्ही "पार्टी"ला गेलो -> AmhI “party”lA gelo
Here listeners i.e. friends are not included in the “we”
Same boy will tell to his family member
We went to party -> आपण "पार्टी"ला गेलो -> ApaN "party"lA gelo
Here the listener i.e. family member is included in “we”
So In Mumbaiyya Hindi people tend to use "आपन" which nothing but version of Marathi "आपण"
While speaking any language we tend to use short cuts of verb forms. Using such short forms is good to sound more like a native speaker.
In below examples wherever required I have given grammatically correct bookish sentence as well as sentence with short forms generally used in spoken language.
Bookish sentence is marked as (BO) and Spoken language sentence is marked as (SP)

Note :- If you thought Marathi sentence will be
ते मुलगे बोलत आहेत(te mulage bolat Ahet) then your understanding is 100% correct.
In Marathi there are two words.
मुलगा = Boy. It is of masculine gender and its plural is मुलगे.
So sentence will be
Those boys are speaking -> ते मुलगे बोलत आहेत (te mulage bolat Ahet)
There is another word मूल = Child. It is of neuter gender and its plural is मुले
Those children are speaking -> ती मुले बोलत आहेत
But in Marathi, we tend to use "ती मुले" instead of "ते मुलगे". This is just a default choice of a native speaker. So I have used it to sound it more natural.
वे लडकिया बोल रही है( ve laDakiyA bol rahI hai )

I have a doubt if you may be kind enough to answer -
ReplyDeleteIt is said here that male(plural) is te. Then why is the sentence
ti mule bolat aahet. shouldn't it be
te mule bolat aahet??
Thanks for you time and patience in making these lessons, these are helping me immensely. Much appreciated.
Your observation is correct. In Marathi there are two words.
Deleteमुलगा = Boy. It is of masculine gender and its plural is मुलगे.
So sentence will be
Those boys are speaking -> ते मुलगे बोलत आहेत
There is another word
मूल = Child. It is of neuter gender and its plural is मुले
Those children are speaking -> ती मुले बोलत आहेत
But in Marathi, we tend to use "ती मुले" instead of "ते मुलगे". This is just a default choice of a native speaker. So I have used it to sound it more natural.
Does this help ?

Hi Kaushik,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Great blog.
I have a Question: For Hindi, You(single) = तुम and You(plural) = आप .. technically You(plural) would be THEY, so You (plural) would be You with Respect, for elders.
Isn't that right?
