Like This and Like That

Level 4Sounds Like a'isana a'ura va'isana

अइसन means like this and वइसन means like that, before a noun.

How It Works

अइसन and वइसन say "of this kind" and "of that kind". They sit right before the noun.

The examples here use the same form for every noun: अइसन बात, अइसन फ्लैट.

Do not confuse them with अइसे and वइसे, which tell how something is done: ऊ अइसे बोलत अहै (he talks like this). अइसन describes a noun; अइसे describes a verb.

Awadhi spells the words with अइ and वइ. Use these, not the Hindi ऐसा and वैसा.

Examples (4)

  1. अइसन फ्लैट कहाँ मिली?

  2. वइसन चाय हम कबहूँ नाहीं पिए अही।

    वइसन points to a kind of tea already mentioned.

  3. अइसन बात मत कहौ।

    Don't say a thing like that.

    अइसन goes before the noun बात.

  4. वइसन फिलिम हम फेरि देखब।

Common Mistakes

  • Using the Hindi spelling.

    ऐसा फ्लैट कहाँ मिली?
    अइसन फ्लैट कहाँ मिली?

    Awadhi spells it अइसन.

  • Using अइसन for how something is done.

    ऊ अइसन चलत अहै।
    ऊ अइसे चलत अहै।

    अइसे describes the verb. अइसन goes with a noun.
