In Hindi
"let us" का छोटा रूप। इसके बाद सादी क्रिया आती है, और नकार में "not" तुरंत बाद आता है।
CoCap explains every structure in both languages, because a rule you understand in Hindi is a rule you can use in English.
The sentence Indian-English speakers actually produce, and the reason it is wrong.
| Commonly said | Correct English |
|---|---|
Let's don't go there. | Let's not go there. The negative of "let's" is "let's not" — there is no "don't" in it. |
Easiest first. Every sentence is authored, with the Hindi it comes from.
Let's walk.
चलो पैदल चलते हैं।
Let's go to the park.
चलो पार्क चलते हैं।
Let's go together.
चलो साथ चलते हैं।
Let's sit inside.
चलो अंदर बैठते हैं।
Let's listen to some music.
चलो कुछ संगीत सुनते हैं।
Let's start again.
चलो फिर से शुरू करते हैं।
Let's meet at three.
चलो तीन बजे मिलते हैं।
Close enough to be mixed up with this one. Knowing the difference is most of knowing either.
Where this structure sits in the ladder, and what surrounds it.
Let's… is a CEFR A1 structure — the starting band — and it belongs to everyday english. CoCap’s syllabus files every structure this way so you can learn in order instead of jumping between whatever a search happened to return.
