Giving Your Opinion

Giving your opinion is a great way to express your thoughts and ideas. It shows that you are interested in the topic and that you have something to say about it. In Urdu, there are different ways of giving your opinion. Let's take a look at some examples:

Urdu	Pronunciation	English
میرا خیال ہے کہ	"Mera khiyal hai ke"	"In my opinion"
مجھے لگتا ہے کہ	"Mujhe lagta hai ke"	"I think that"
بہتر ہوتا اگر	"Behtar hota agar"	"It would be better if"
مجھے یہ بہت پسند ہے	"Mujhe yeh bohat pasand hai"	"I like this very much"

Here are some examples of how to use these phrases:

Dialogue:

• Person 1: میرا خیال ہے کہ مطلب تم نے نہیں سمجھا۔ (Mera khayal hai ke matlab tum ne nahi samjha.)
• Person 2: جی بلکہ میری نظر میں تو تمہیں بہتر سمجھ آئے ہوں۔ (Ji bilkul, meri nazar mein to tumhein behtar samajh aye ho.)

Translation:

• Person 1: "In my opinion, you did not understand the meaning."
• Person 2: "Yes, on the contrary, I think I understood it better."

Dialogue:

• Person 1: بہتر ہوتا اگر آپ ثابت کر پاتے کہ آپ کی بات ٹھیک ہے۔ (Behtar hota agar aap sabit kar patay ke aap ki baat theek hai.)
• Person 2: جی حق، بےشک میں اس بارے میں آپ کے ساتھ رائے رکھتا ہوں. (Ji haq, beshak mein is baray mein aap ke sath raay rakhta hun.)

Translation:

• Person 1: "It would be better if you could prove that your point is correct."
• Person 2: "Yes, absolutely. I agree with you on this."
