Vocabulary

Before we dive into the grammar, let's first learn some useful vocabulary related to giving opinions.

Hindi	Pronunciation	English
मेरी राय है	meri rai hai	in my opinion/ I think
मुझे लगता है	mujhe lagta hai	I feel/think
बिना सोचे समझे	bina soche samjhe	without thinking
सहमत होना	sahmat hona	to agree
असहमत होना	asahmat hona	to disagree
हाँ/जी हाँ	haan/ji haan	yes, absolutely
नहीं/ जी नहीं	nahin/ji nahin	no, not really

Grammar

To give your opinion in Hindi, we use the following sentence structure:

Subject + (का/की) + राय है + [Expression of opinion]

For example:

• मेरी राय है कि यह फ़िल्म बहुत अच्छी थी।

(meri rai hai ki yeh film bahut acchi thi.) In my opinion, this movie was very good.

• मैं सहमत नहीं हूँ।

(main sahmat nahin hoon.) I don't agree.

• मुझे लगता है आप गलत हैं।

(mujhe lagta hai aap galat hain.) I think you are wrong.

• बिना सोचे समझे वह उस पर विवाद कर रही थी।

(bina soche samjhe vah us par vivad kar rahi thi.) She was arguing without thinking.

Note: The use of का/की depends on the gender of the subject. If the subject is feminine, we use की. If the subject is masculine, we use का.

Dialogue

Let's see some examples of a conversation where people share their opinions. Pay attention to the sentence structure and vocabulary used.

• Person 1: क्या आपको लगता है कि कल बारिश होगी? (Kya aapko lagta hai ki kal barish hogi?)

(Do you think it will rain tomorrow?)

• Person 2: हाँ, मेरी राय है कि बारिश होगी। (Haan, meri rai hai ki barish hogi.)

(Yes, I think it will rain.)

• Person 1: मुझे लगता है कि हम एकल होने के बाद भी अच्छी तरह से अपने काम कर सकते हैं।(Mujhe lagta hai ki hum eklavya hone ke baad bhi acchi tarah se apne kaam kar sakte hain.)

(I think even after being alone, we can work well.)

• Person 2: मैं आपसे सहमत नहीं हूँ। (Main aapse sahmat nahin hoon.)

(I don't agree with you.)

Culture and Tips

In Hindi culture, it is polite to share your opinion in a respectful and non-offensive manner. Avoid using aggressive language or pointing out other's mistakes directly. Instead, express your opinion constructively and provide reasoning to support it.
