Asking for Directions in Hindi
Asking where something is
The key question pattern is:
[place] कहाँ है? ([place] kahaan hai?) — Where is [place]?
- बस स्टेशन कहाँ है? (bas station kahaan hai?) — Where is the bus station?
- नज़दीकी दुकान कहाँ है? (nazdeeki dukaan kahaan hai?) — Where is the nearest shop?
Giving directions
- दाएँ मुड़िए (daayen mudiye) — Turn right
- बाएँ मुड़िए (baayen mudiye) — Turn left
- सीधे जाइए (seedhe jaiye) — Go straight ahead
- यहाँ से पास है (yahaan se paas hai) — It is close from here
- वहाँ से दूर है (vahaan se door hai) — It is far from there
Using postpositions with directions
Hindi uses postpositions after nouns (opposite of English prepositions):
- दुकान के पास (dukaan ke paas) — near the shop
- स्कूल के सामने (school ke saamne) — in front of the school
- बैंक के पीछे (bank ke peechhe) — behind the bank
- सिग्नल के बाद (signal ke baad) — after the traffic light
Polite request form
Use मुझे बताइए (mujhe bataiye) — Please tell me:
- मुझे बताइए, यहाँ से अस्पताल कहाँ है? — Please tell me, where is the hospital from here?
