Indo-Aryan language spoken in South Asia.

In this unit, we will focus on constructing sentences and forming questions about personal details in Urdu. This is a crucial skill for any conversation, as it allows you to get to know others and share information about yourself.

Constructing Sentences in Urdu

When providing personal information in Urdu, the sentence structure is generally subject-object-verb, which is different from Spanish. Here are some examples:

• "My name is Juan" translates to "Mera naam Juan hai" (میرا نام خوان ہے).
• "I am 40 years old" translates to "Mujhe 40 saal ho gaye hain" (مجھے چالیس سال ہو گئے ہیں).
• "I am a teacher" translates to "Main ek ustaad hoon" (میں ایک استاد ہوں).

Forming Questions in Urdu

When asking about personal details in Urdu, the question word usually comes at the end of the sentence. Here are some examples:

• "What is your name?" translates to "Aap ka naam kya hai?" (آپ کا نام کیا ہے؟).
• "How old are you?" translates to "Aap ki umar kya hai?" (آپ کی عمر کیا ہے؟).
• "What is your profession?" translates to "Aap ka pesha kya hai?" (آپ کا پیشہ کیا ہے؟).

Practicing Conversation Scenarios

• Introducing yourself to a new colleague at work.

Remember, practice is key when learning a new language. Don't be afraid to make mistakes and ask for corrections. This will help you improve your Urdu conversation skills.
