كتاب أول مرة أتدبر القرآن .

سمع الله لمن حكى و من دعى و من حمد و من بكى ، ربنا ولك مافي القلب ..!

يحكى أن( بهلول) كان رجلا    مجنونا فى عهد الخليفة    العباسي هارون الرشيد ..    وفي يوم من الأيام    مر عليه هارون الرشيد    وهو جالس على إحدى    المقابر ..

   فقال له هارون معنفا :    يا بهلول يا مجنون…    متى تعقل ؟

   فركض بهلول وصعد إلى    أعلى شجرة ثم نادى على    هارون بأعلى صوته :    ياهارون يا مجنون….    متى تعقل ؟

   فأتى هارون تحت الشجرة    وهو على صهوة حصانه …    وقال له :    أنا المجنون أم أنت الذي    يجلس على المقابر ؟    فقال له بهلول :    بل أنا عاقل !!    قال هارون : وكيف ذلك ؟    قال بهلول :    “لأني عرفت أن هذا زائل ،،    (وأشار إلى قصر هارون)    وأن هذا باقِ ،،،    (وأشار إلى القبر)    فعمرت هذا قبل هذا ،،،    وأما أنت فإنك قد عمرت هذا    (يقصد قصره)    وخربت هذا (يعنى القبر) ..    فتكره أن تنتقل من العمران    إلى الخراب مع أنك تعلم أنه    مصيرك لامحال ” ….    وأردف قائلا : فقلّ لي //    أيّنا المجنون ؟؟

   فرجف قلب هارون الرشيد    وبكى حتى بلل لحيته …    وقال :    “والله إنك لصادق ..”

   ثم قال هارون :    زدني يا بهلول…    فقال بهلول :    “يكفيك كتاب الله فالزمه”

   قال هارون :    “ ألك حاجة فأقضيها ”    قال بهلول :    نعم ثلاث حاجات ،،،    إن قضيتها شكرتك ..    قال : فاطلب ،،،    قال :    أن تزيد في عمري !!    قال : “لا أقدر ”

   قال :    أن تحميني من    ملك الموت!!    قال : لا أقدر ..

   قال :    أن تدخلني الجنة    وتبعدني عن النار !!    قال : لا أقدر ..

   قال :    فاعلم انك مملوك    ولست ملك ،،     “ ولاحاجة لي عندك” …..

   (كتاب عُقلاء المجانين)

لَمْ يَكُنْ يَوْماً وَحِيداً، فَقَدْ كانَ لديهِ مَكْتَبَة.

عندما إنتهينا من حديثنا العميْق شعرت أني لأول مرة..عائِدة من النّجوم..

إنما أنا أخاف نفسي … أخاف خيالي وما ينسج لي من صور

قال الله تعالى

{وَلا تَسْتَوِي الْحَسَنَةُ وَلا السَّيِّئَةُ ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ فَإِذَا الَّذِي بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ عَدَاوَةٌ كَأَنَّهُ وَلِيٌّ حَمِيمٌ *وَمَا يُلَقَّاهَا إِلاَّ الَّذِينَ صَبَرُوا وَمَا يُلَقَّاهَا إلا ذُو حَظٍّ عَظِيمٍ}

 (سورة فصلت الآيتان (34 - 35).

I hate crying. I never entirely know if the tears are mine or someone else’s…

She struggled with her sadness, but tried to conceal it, to divide it into smaller and smaller parts and scatter these in places she thought no one would find them.

Russian equivalents to popular English colloquial expressions

How does one say…

I know, right?

Не то слово! — “that’s not the right word” (=“in fact things are even more *whatever* than you say”)

Не говори! — “don’t (even) say (that)”

Точно!/Именно! — Exactly!

Так и есть — that’s true

Вот-вот! — that’s it!

In the end, Ultimately

В конце концов = “after all”

В итоге — eventually

В конечном счёте

Yeah sure!

Ага, конечно!

Ну да! (intonation significantly goes DOWN, otherwise you’ll just show agreement without any sarcasm)

Ага, щас (distorted сейчас)! — “yeah, right now!”

I’ve had enough!

С меня хватит!/С меня достаточно!

Мне (это) надоело!

Меня это достало! (slang) — I’m sick of it!

Я сыт/а по горло! — I’m fed up; this one is really dramatic

Хватит! — Enough!

So what?

(Ну) и что?

И что с того? — less common now. Probably used to be the first version of the phrase, that got shorter over time.

Nope

Не — Nah

Не-а — Nope

Like

Типа — sort of, kinda

Такой/ая — for ‘someone was like’, ‘and then someone goes’,

ex.: Ну он мне говорит: «Иди домой!»,

а я такой: «Не-а!» —

So he says, “Go home!”, and I go, “Nope!”.

Note: you can use this one for citing, as well as for paraphrasing.

Hindi Lesson 10: Verbs

This lesson is going to focus on vocabulary, because after all, you can know all the grammar but if you don’t know any words, you still can’t say anything. People use verbs all the time, so let’s start here.

Some of the most common verbs are:

होना - hona - to be

करना - karna - to do

बनाना - banana - to make

लेना - lena - to take

देना - dena - to give

आना - aana - to come

जाना - jaana - to go

देखना - dekhna - to see, to look

सुनना - sunna - to hear, to listen

बैठना - baithna - to sit

हँसना - hansna - to laugh (sometimes also to smile)

सोना - sona - to sleep (in some dialects this also means to lie down)

जागना - jaagna - to wake (one’s self)

Now, Hindi has a very common thing called “compound verbs” where you take a noun or adjective and add a verb right after it (most commonly karna) to express doing that thing. The noun or adjective stays the same (you don’t have to worry about any cases or postpositions), while the verb takes the tense markings.

Some common ones are:

काम करना - kaam karna - to work

पढ़ाई करना - padhai karna - to study, to do studies

शुरु करना - shuru karna - to start

बंद करना - band karna - to close, to turn off

तय करना - tay karna - to decide

In the simple present tense it works like this:

मैं काम करती हूँ। main kaam kartee hoon. - I (f) work.

आप पढ़ाई करते हैं। aap padhai karte hain. - you (m, polite) study.

This is an extremely useful structure to know, for one reason: 90% of loan words from English are used as compound verbs with karna. Hindi speakers use a lot of English in their vocabulary, so if you don’t know the word for something, you can stick ANY English word into this structure and chances are very good you’ll be understood. In fact, you might be right and sound natural!

This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t learn the actual Hindi words for things - you absolutely should, if only for the sake of linguistic preservation but also because many of them are used - but when you’re practicing speaking and want to express yourself? This will take you a long way.

Some commonly used words (and their slightly less common shuddh hindi counterparts) are:

dance karna डैंस करना (नाचना naacna) to dance

count karna कउंट करना (गिनना ginna) to count

cancel karna कैंसेल करना (रद्द करना radd karna) to cancel

choose karna चूज़ करना (चुनना cunna) to choose

Example: हम सब लोग रात भर डैंस करते हैं। hum sab log raat bhar dance karte hain. We all dance all night long.

Bonus words:

सब - sab - all, every

लोग - log - people (only exists in the plural)

रात - raat (f) - night

दिन - din (m) - day

भर - bhar - entire, the whole time

Kyungsoo turning into Dyo

Thomas Cole (1801-1848) The Course of Empire: “The Savage State” (1834) “The Arcadian” (1834) “The Consummation of Empire” (1836) “Destruction” (1836) “Desolation” (1836) Oil on canvas Owned by the New-York Historical Society

The Course of Empire is a five-part series of paintings created by Thomas Cole in the years 1833–36.

The series of paintings depicts the growth and fall of an imaginary city, situated on the lower end of a river valley, near its meeting with a bay of the sea. The valley is distinctly identifiable in each of the paintings, in part because of an unusual landmark: a large boulder is precariously situated atop a crag overlooking the valley.
