Hi,
Beginners usually find it confusing whether to use kaisa/kaise/kaisi. Ive often seen people from South India, struggling while talking. Often, they are confused when these terms should be used. I've tried to keep the explanation simple. Hope this helps you. :) Looking forward to get your feedbacks. Happy Learning!

घोड़ा कैसे दौड़ता है in this sentence horse is masculine singular.so they must use kaisa..why they are using kaise..plz answer..
ReplyDeleteKindly attach the context and provide the full sentence for a clear picture. The use of kaisa, kaisi, kaise also depends upon the context, the horse( is that a famous horse?), who is asking this question to whom?
DeleteRegardless of the sex, certain words in Hindi are used to denote the whole group - eg.: chidiya,billi,pustak,...
In Hindi, it is not uncommon to find the singular form used where the
meaning is evidently plural.
Lekhika ko yah pasand aya. Inthis sentence why don't use pasand ayi
