Learn Hindi with Loquus

Learn Hindi.

Hindi gives you a chance to connect a new script with conversations, family, travel, or media that matter to you. Loquus combines lessons, audio, and reference tools so you can explore Devanagari, revisit a word, or look more closely at how a sentence is formed.

नमस्ते

Start with a greeting. Keep going from there.

01

Read the letters and vowel signs

Hindi uses Devanagari, where vowel signs work with consonant letters to shape a written syllable. Explore the alphabet reference with audio beside it. As you learn a word, compare its script, available transliteration, and spoken form rather than treating the reading as a separate task.

02

Notice what comes after the noun

Hindi commonly uses postpositions, which follow a noun or phrase, where English often uses a preposition before it. Grammar Center explains sentence patterns you can explore through examples. Notice how the words fit together and where the verb appears as you practice a complete sentence.

03

Choose a reply for the listener

Hindi has different ways to address someone, and the choice can reflect familiarity or respect. Look at the situation around a Phrasebook expression before practicing it. Listen to an available example, try saying it aloud, and use Grammar Center when a pronoun or verb form raises a question.

Say it out loud: the app plays नमस्ते and you repeat it right after the voice.

Then say it yourself.

Right after a new word, you repeat it after the voice. This is called shadowing, and it builds speaking habits from your very first lesson.
