-नुपर्ने means that must be done.

How It Works

-नुपर्छ means must. Swap the final -छ for -ने and you get a describing word: -नुपर्ने means that has to be done.

The doer can come first: आज मैले गर्नुपर्ने धेरै काम छ. We write it as one word, just like जानुपर्छ, though print sometimes shows two words.

Use it to talk about tasks, lists and duties, such as a shopping list or a school form. For the plain obligation in a sentence, use -नुपर्छ.

आज मैले गर्नुपर्ने धेरै काम छ।
I have a lot of work to do today.
