What music inspires you?<br />

How do you release 42 stress?<br />

The words that we learnt are:<br />

कौन से संगीत से आप को<br />

�ेरणा �मलती है?<br />

आप कै से तनाव से छु टकारा<br />

पाते ह� ?<br />

तनाव(tanaav); छु टकारा(chutkaara); संगीत(sangeet); �ेरणा(prerana);<br />

Kaun se sangeet se aapko<br />

prerana milti hai<br />

ख़ूबसूरत(khoobsoorat); मु�ा (mudd); चुनाव(chunaav); मह�वपूण�(mahatvapoorn);<br />

�व�थ(svasth); आगंतुक(aagatuk); �सफ़ा�रश(sifaarish);घटना(ghatna)<br />

Quiz:<br />

Aap kaise tanaav se chutkaara<br />

paate haim<br />

1) What does this statement mean: आप कहाँ से आ रहे ह�?( Aap kahan se aa rahe<br />

haim)?<br />

2) How will you ask this in <strong>Hindi</strong>: “Where are you going?”<br />

3) Can you recommend a good <strong>Hindi</strong> movie <strong>to</strong> see? Frame this question in <strong>Hindi</strong>.<br />

4) What is “stress” known as?<br />

म�जुल/मंजुल/म�जु/मंजु, मनो�, and, last but not least, मनोरम. Moreover,<br />

what makes for a or lovely site/sight depends in large part on the sensitivity<br />

and expectations of the beholder and thus open <strong>to</strong> examination:<br />

unexpected, uncommon/rare, pleasing/peaceful <strong>to</strong> the eye, exciting<br />

wonder/admiration/awe, stimulating the<br />

senses/emotions/imagination/intellect, etc., leaving you, if not breathless<br />

(सांस रोक कर) and speechless (गूंगा/वांगमय),<br />

at the very least agape (मुंह<br />

बाए), agasp (तेज़ी से सांस लेए) and inarticulate (गदगद)–all are fodder for<br />

reflection… except perhaps for the parliamentarian amongst us (सांसद) :-)<br />

42 “relieve” might be a better word here.
