आज / भोलि / हिजो
Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday
Three day words come straight into the sentence with no extra word.
How It Works
The three day words do not take a postposition.
| Word | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
| आज | today | आज म घरमा छु। |
| भोलि | tomorrow | भोलि म काठमाडौं जान्छु। |
| हिजो | yesterday | हिजो, आज र भोलि |
With आज and भोलि, the simple present you have already learned fits: it says what you do today and what you will do soon.
हिजो is about the past. A sentence about yesterday needs a past verb, and the past is taught at Level 2. For now, learn the word and the set हिजो, आज र भोलि.
Time words usually come first or right after the person.
Examples (5)
- आज म घरमा छु।
I am at home today.
आज stands at the start with no postposition.
- भोलि म काठमाडौं जान्छु।
Tomorrow I am going to Kathmandu.
भोलि with the present means a plan.
- भोलि तपाईं कहाँ जानुहुन्छ?
Where are you going tomorrow?
The same pattern in a polite question.
- हिजो, आज र भोलि।
Yesterday, today and tomorrow.
हिजो is the day before today.
- आज र भोलि म घरमा छु।
Today and tomorrow I am at home.
Two day words can share one sentence.
