উচিত

Should: উচিত

Level 4Sounds Like ucita

তুমি শোৱা উচিত means “you should sleep”, and কোন জিকা উচিত? means “who should win?”.

How It Works

Verb-া form“Should”
শো sleepশোৱাশোৱা উচিত
খা eatখোৱাখোৱা উচিত
জিক winজিকাজিকা উচিত
খোজ ask forখোজাখোজা উচিত

The -া form works like a noun, so an object stands before it: এইটো খোৱা উচিত “you should eat this”.

The negative is নহয় after উচিত: ৰফিকুলে এনেকৈ কৰা উচিত নহয় “Rafiqul should not do it like this”.

The person has no special ending: মই ক্ষমা খোজা উচিত “I should apologize”. A name takes -এ, as in ৰফিকুলে. A question word can open the sentence: কোন জিকা উচিত? “who should win?”.

উচিত gives advice. It is gentler than কৰিব লাগিব, which says the thing has to happen.
