Questions & Answers about मेहमान मिठाई और जूस लाएँगे, कमरा सजाकर मोमबत्ती जलाएँगे।
Why do the verbs end in -एँगे in लाएँगे and जलाएँगे?
Because the sentence is in the future tense, and the subject is understood as plural (or potentially honorific).
- लाएँगे = will bring
- जलाएँगे = will light
The ending -एँगे is a common masculine plural / honorific future ending.
Here, मेहमान is treated as plural, so the verbs are plural too.
Is मेहमान singular or plural here?
In Hindi, मेहमान can be singular or plural depending on context.
- एक मेहमान आएगा = One guest will come
- मेहमान आएँगे = The guests will come
In your sentence, the verb लाएँगे shows that मेहमान is being understood as plural: guests.
Why is मेहमान written only once, even though there are several actions?
Because Hindi often avoids repeating the subject when it stays the same.
So:
- मेहमान मिठाई और जूस लाएँगे
- (मेहमान) कमरा सजाकर मोमबत्ती जलाएँगे
The second मेहमान is omitted because it is already understood. English does this too sometimes:
