Me/I: Meiney’;‘Mai’;‘Mere’ You: Tum’Tumhae’;tumharae’;‘Tumnae’;‘Tumsae’; He/She/It/That: Vo;‘Usnae’;‘Uskee’;
We: Hum;‘Humarae’;‘Humsae’;‘Humsab’; You (as in “you lot” - plural): Aap;‘Aapsabh’;‘AapSabhee’; Them/Those: Vo;‘Unhee’;‘Inhee’;‘Unko’; Plural pronouns are often used for singular subjects or objects to show respect like: You: “Aap” for ‘Tum’, “Aapko” for ‘Tumhae’, “Aapnae” for ‘Tumnae’, and “Aapsae” for ‘Tumsae’; He/She:‘Uhunnae" for ‘Usnae’ and “Unkee” for ‘Uskee’
To Be: Hona (infinitive) I am: Mein hoon You are: Tum ho S/he/it/that is: Vo hai Just to recap, “Mein hoon” means “I am” because “mein” means “I” and is the subject, “hoon” means “am” and is the verb, and the Urdu sentence order is Subject, Object (none in this case), Verb. We are: Hum hain You (pl) are: Aap hain They/those are: Vo hain Like English, the plurals all take the same conjugation.
I (Mein): ta You (Tum): te S/he/it (Vo): ta We (Hum): tain You (pl) (Aap): tain Them (Vo): tain Thus, as an example, the verb Dekhna (to see) would conjugate for me (I’m male) as “Dekhta” or for you (if you’re female) as “Dekhti”.
“I [female] see”: “Mein dekhti hoon” “It sees”: “Vo dekhta hai” You will recall that “mein” is “I”, “hoon” is “am” (conjugated for “I”) and “dekhti” is the verb “To See” (“Dekhna”) when conjugated for a female “I”.
I (Mein): Mujhe You (Tum): Tumhe S/he (Vo): Usse We (Hum): Humhe You (pl) (Aap): Aapko Them (Vo): Unhe
“I see John”: Mein John ko dekhta hoon “Jane sees John”: Jane John ko dekhti hai To deconstruct: “Jane [subject] John ko [object] dekhti [sees, feminine] hai [present tense “is”]” “I see you”: Mein tumhe dekhta hoon “You [feminine] see us”: Tum humhe dekhti ho “They see Jane”: Vo Jane ko dekhtain hain
