Level 4Sounds Like karaōraā / paṛhōraā / dēkhu'ōraā

ভাস্কৰে পঢ়ায় means “Bhaskar teaches”, and ভাস্কৰে প্ৰিয়ংকাক নক্সাখন দেখুৱালে means “Bhaskar showed Priyanka the map”. The name of the action ends in -ওৱা.

How It Works

VerbCausative stemName of the action
কৰ doকৰা- (কৰালে)কৰোৱা
পঢ় readপঢ়া- (পঢ়ায় “teaches”)পঢ়োৱা
খা eatখুৱা- (খুৱালে “fed”)খুওৱা
দেখ seeদেখুৱা- (দেখুৱালে “showed”)দেখুওৱা

Use the stem in a sentence: ভাস্কৰে মোক ছিঙৰা খুৱালে “Bhaskar fed me samosas”. The person who gets the food or sees the thing takes -ক, as in মোক “me” and প্ৰিয়ংকাক “Priyanka”.

Use the name of the action with হৈছে: ভৰ্তি কৰোৱা হৈছে “has been admitted”.

For তুমি the present of পঢ়া- is written পঢ়োৱা, so তুমি পঢ়োৱা means “you teach”.

Learn This First

The longer verb stem is built on a stem like খা, and the examples are in the past, so learners need খাওঁ, the past endings and the -া form first.
