Questions & Answers about मैं बैंक में पैसा जमा करती हूँ।
Why is में used after बैंक?
में is the postposition that usually means in, inside, or sometimes at a place.
So:
- बैंक = bank
- बैंक में = in the bank / at the bank
In this sentence, it marks the location where the depositing happens.
A native English speaker may expect a preposition before the noun, but Hindi uses postpositions, which come after the noun instead.
Why does the sentence use पैसा and not पैसे?
पैसा here means money in a general, uncountable sense. It does not have to mean a single coin.
So in this sentence:
- पैसा जमा करना = to deposit money
You can also hear पैसे in real life, and that is very common too:
- मैं बैंक में पैसे जमा करती हूँ।
That would also mean I deposit money in the bank.
Very roughly:
- पैसा = money as a general concept
- पैसे = money/funds/cash in a more everyday plural form
Both can work, depending on style and context.
