Questions & Answers about कटर मेज़ पर है।

How is this sentence put together word by word?

A very literal breakdown is:

• कटर = cutter
• मेज़ = table
• पर = on
• है = is

So the structure is roughly cutter table on is.

Natural English puts this as The cutter is on the table or A cutter is on the table, depending on context.

Why does पर come after मेज़ instead of before it?

Because Hindi uses postpositions, not prepositions.

In English, we say on the table with on before the noun.
In Hindi, the equivalent is मेज़ पर, with पर after the noun.

So:

• English: on the table
• Hindi: मेज़ पर

This is a very common pattern in Hindi.

Why is है at the end?

Hindi usually places the verb at the end of the clause.

So instead of English word order:

• The cutter is on the table

Hindi prefers:

• कटर मेज़ पर है

This final है is the normal present-tense form of to be for is/am/are in many simple sentences.
