So remember suffixes follow the आ-ई-ए-ए-या-ई (A-I-e-e-yA-I) pattern, so they are ला-ली-ले-ले-ल्या-ली (lA-lI-le-le-lyA-lI)
When creating sentences for "You(Singular)" extra स(s) is appended to verb form.
When creating sentences for "You(Plural)" extra त(t) is appended to verb form.
Examples :-
I painted picture मी चित्र रंगवले ( mI chitra raMgavale )
You(singu.) painted picture तू चित्र रंगवलेस ( tU chitra raMgavales )
You(plu.) painted picture तुम्ही चित्र रंगवलेत ( tumhI chitra raMgavalet )
I ate maggi मी मॅगी खाल्ली (mI m~agI khAllI )
You(singu.) ate maggi तू मॅगी खाल्लीस (tU m~agI khAllIs )
You(plu.) ate maggi तुम्ही मॅगी खाल्लीत (tumhI m~agI khAllIt )
They told story त्यांनी गोष्ट सांगितली (tyAMnI goShTa sAMgitalI)
You(singu.) told story तू गोष्ट सांगितलीस (tU goShTa sAMgitalIs)

We learnt the simple past tense for verbs
without noun/object.
Now let us learn other type.
RULE FOR FORMING VERB :-
Verb is formed as per gender and singular/Plural of object.
Example 1)
Consider past tense example “I read letter”.
Here letter is noun/object.
So in Marathi the verb “read” i.e “वाच (vAch) will be formed according to “letter”
Letter is third person singular non-gender
( i.e similar to “it” )
If you refer previous chart, suffix for “it” in
Simple Past tense is ले ( le )
So verb + suffix -> “वाच” (vAch) + “ले” ( le ) --> वाचले ( vAchale )
Example 2) “I opened
box”
Object is “Box” which is masculine i.e. similar to “he”
So If
you refer previous chart, suffix for “he” in Simple Past tense is ला ( lA )
So verb + suffix -> “उघड” (ughaD) + “ला” ( lA )
--> उघडला (ughaDalA)
Example 3) "I opened boxes"
Object is “Boxes” which is masculine plural i.e. similar to “They(plural of he”
So If you refer previous chart, suffix for “
They(plural of he)” in Simple Past tense is ले ( le )
So verb + suffix -> “उघड” (ughaD) + "ले" ( le )
--> उघडले (ughaDale)
e.g. उघडला-उघडली-उघडले-उघडले-उघडल्या-उघडली (ughaDalA-ughaDalI-ughaDale-ughaDale-ughaDalyA-ughaDalI)
RULE FOR FORMS of SUBJECT(doer of action)
1) For I, We, you there is no change.
2) For “he” in sentence we will use त्याने ( tyAne )
3) For “she” in sentence we will use तीने ( tIne )
4) For “It” in sentence we will use त्याने ( tyAne )
5) For They in sentence we will use त्यांनी ( tyAMnI )
6) For other pronouns/proper nouns we will suffix ने (ne) to the samanyroop form
e.g. Peter opened box. Then in sentence we will use “Peter” + ने (ne) => पीटरने (pITarane)
Harry opened box. Then in sentence we will use “Harry” + ने (ne) => हॅरीने (h~arIne)
Monkey opened box. Then in sentence we will use “माकडा"(mAkaDA) + ने (ne) => माकडाने (mAkaDAne)
Because samanyroop form of noun माकड(mAkaD) is माकडा (mAkaDA)
Monkey opened box. Then in sentence we will use “माकडा"(mAkaDA) + ने (ne) => माकडाने (mAkaDAne)
Because samanyroop form of noun माकड(mAkaD) is माकडा (mAkaDA)
7) In plural नी ( nI ) is suffixed to the samanyroop form for plural of pronoun/noun
E.g. Cars made noise.
Cars is गाड्या ( gADyA ). Its samanyroop form is गाड्यां(gADyAM)
So in simple past tense sentence we will use गाड्यां(gADyAM)+नी( nI )
--> गाड्यांनी (gADyAMnI)
All watched cinema.
All = सगळे (sagaLe) Its samanyroop form is सगळ्यां (sagaLyAM). So in past tense sentence we will use सगळ्यां (sagaLyAM) +नी( nI ) --> सगळ्यांनी (sagaLyAMnI)
All watched cinema.
All = सगळे (sagaLe) Its

Hi ,
ReplyDeleteAs per the rules in part 1 of past tense example 3 in the above chapter i.e. i opened boxes what we should use? Lee or Le (As per my understanding it should be Le), Please verify.
Thanks
Pradeep G
Yes, you are right. It should be उघडले (ughaDale). I rectified it. Thanks for bringing it to my notice.
DeleteIt is nice to see that you are studying Marathi very keenly.
I would like to hear more feedback from you about my blog.

R.S.Sharma
Mr. Sharma, I am really overwhelmed by your words.
DeleteI would like to hear more about your Marathi learning and feedback from you about my blog.

Can you please elaborate on why गाड्या( gADyA )+नी( nI ) is गाड्यांनी (gADyAMnI) and not gADyAnI?
ReplyDelete"नी" is actually appended to "deflected form of plural" which is गाड्यां.

In Hindi, we have the rule to add 'ने' to the doer of action irrespective of the person (1st, 2nd or 3rd)and it has the rule to add 'ने' only when the following questions have answers in that statement, like 'what' and 'who' and it has also the exceptions not to add 'ने' to the doer of action, for 'ला', 'बोल', 'मूल', 'लग', 'सक' and 'चुक' even though the statement will have answers for this.
ReplyDeletemy questions is 'does Marathi have the same exceptions, please explain
Sorry I could not understand your question correctly. Can you please elaborate with full sentence example.
DeleteAlso may I know your name please?
Thanks,
Kaushik
Let us translate "I TALKED", "I BROUGHT". Pure Hindi translation should be "मैंने बोला", "मैंने लाया", because they have answers for either “who talked” or “what talked” and “who brought” or “what brought”. But we say only "मैं बोला", "मैं लाया", because "बोल", "ला" are exempted from the rule. But we definitely say "मैंने कहा","मैंने किया" etc., Is there any similar rules in Marathi for simple past tense
DeleteNo such exception in Marathi.
Delete"Anonymous" your name plz. It is good to know whom i am communicating so that context of previous discussion and level of understanding is known.
So alway specify ur name.
Mohan Lakshmanan from Sydney and i am learning Marathi from your website. I like your literal translation for Marathi. I learnt Hindi in that way only.
ReplyDeleteOhhh ok its you. We had email conversation too. Thanks. Plz always mention ur name in future posts.
DeleteSundar Viwanathan here. Sorry I should have posted my question here. Question. why do we say sometimes "popatane vicharle"? What is the object (noun) here? Thanks...I am confused. Sometimes we have to vicharla...so in "popatane vicharle" the object is the "words spoken"? Thanks...
ReplyDelete"popatane vicharle" there is no explicit object. So it it assumed to be neuter-singular. So verb form is "vicharle"
Delete"popatane prashn vichArlA" .... here object is "prashn" which is masculine-singular. So verb form is "vichArlA"
I hope it helps.
As i had said in my previous comment, I would like to know more about your Marathi learning and experience with my blog. Would you mind sending me mail on learnmarathifast@gmail.com
Thanks,
Kaushik
Thank you. I will email tonight. Sundar
DeleteGive me a couple days..I am a little busy. Thanks. Sundar
DeleteHow do we create past tense sentences when the object is a living being? for e.g. I did not recognize you.
ReplyDeletewill then subject be taken like gender neutral?
Plz refer this lesson
Deletehttp://kaushiklele-learnmarathi.blogspot.in/2013/05/sentences-with-person-or-living-things.html?m=1
Let me know if it helps.
Thanks,
Kaushik
dear sir in example no 2 Example 2) “I opened box”
ReplyDeleteObjective is “Box” which is masculine i.e. similar to “he”
So If you refer previous chart, suffix for “he” in Simple Past tense is ला ( lA )
So verb + suffix -> “उघड” (ughaD) + “ला” ( lA ) --> उघडला (ughaDalA)
box ko he ku lia hum ese it ku nai le sakte ????
Each noun has gender. But it is decided arbitrarilt. There is no rule to identify gender of noun. You sould just "know" it somehow.
