Questions & Answers about शब्दकोश उपलब्ध है।

Why is है at the end of the sentence?

Hindi usually follows Subject–Object/Complement–Verb word order, so the verb often comes last.

So:

• शब्दकोश = the subject
• उपलब्ध = a descriptive word, meaning available
• है = is

A very literal English-style breakdown would be:

• Dictionary available is.

But natural English is:

• The dictionary is available.

This verb-final pattern is one of the most important word-order differences between Hindi and English.

What exactly is उपलब्ध here? Is it a verb?

In this sentence, उपलब्ध is best understood as an adjective meaning available.

The actual verb is है = is.

So the structure is similar to:

• कमरा साफ़ है। = The room is clean.
• शब्दकोश उपलब्ध है। = The dictionary is available.

In both cases, the descriptive word (साफ़, उपलब्ध) is not the main verb; the verb is है.
