एक साल हिंदी पढ़ना -One Year Learning Hindi

नमस्ते

मीरा नाम जोश है। मैं आज एक साल हिंदी पढ़ना है। हिंदी, तेलगु नहीं, हिंदी-इंग्लिश नहीं हिंदी। मैं हरा दिन डुओलिंगो पढ़ना है. आज दिन ३६५ पढ़ना है। मैं क्यों हिंदी परत चाहिये?
एक: मेरे टीम में लोग भारत कई। मैं उन्हें पढ़ना चाहिये।
डो: मैं पढ़ना चाहिये।
तीन: हिंदी दुनिया में शीर्ष पांच भाषाओँ है।

मैं गूगल अनुवाद करना उपयोग। एच या पांच शब्द। अधिक नहीं।
मैं ब्लॉग के नेतृत्व अनुवाद करना हो जाएगा।
मुझे मदद। मुझे टिप्पणियां में जी हाँ।
दांयीवाद।

Hello

(What I intended to say in Hindi.)

Hello
My name is Josh and today I have been studying Hindi for 1 year. Hindi.  Not Telegu, not Hindi-English.  Hindi. I use Duolingo every day and my learning streak is at 365.

“Why do I want to learn hindi?”
1. I work with dozens of Indian people and I want to learn more about their culture.
2. I want to develop my intellect.  I love to learn.
3. It is one of the top 5 languages in the world, and is a good start to learning other languages.

I will use Google to translate phrases with at most 1-5 words. (mainly because sometimes multiple English words becomes a single Hindi word.)

I want to translate my leadership blogs to learn Hindi. Help me by providing feedback in the comments.

Thank-you!

Additional Notes

Duolingo is self-described as “the world’s best way to learn a language”. Please feel free to follow me on Duolingo. My profile ID is Josh (Josh282486). I know 400+ words in Hindi, and am just over half-way done with all of the Hindi lessons.
I used EasyHindiTyping.com to type the Hindi letters used in this post.
Check out Develop Your Intellect! to find out other ways you can gain new skills.

Disclaimer: this post is as much for me to record my 1 year progress as it is to connect with you. I hope to look back on this at 2 years and be able to see how far I’ve come. I know I made several mistakes, and I look forward to connecting with you in the comments below.
