दुकान सड़क पर है।

A simple word-by-word breakdown is:

• दुकान = shop, store
• सड़क = road, street
• पर = on, upon
• है = is

So the structure is literally something like:

• shop road on is

Natural English rearranges that as The shop is on the street/road.

Because Hindi uses postpositions, not prepositions.

• English: on the street
• Hindi: सड़क पर

So in Hindi, the relational word usually comes after the noun:

• घर में = in the house
• मेज़ पर = on the table
• सड़क पर = on the street/road

This is one of the biggest structural differences between English and Hindi.

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

In this sentence:

• दुकान = subject
• सड़क पर = location
• है = verb (is)

So Hindi puts the sentence together as:

• The shop
  • on the street
    • is

This is completely normal in Hindi.

Hindi normally does not use articles the way English does.

So:

• दुकान can mean a shop, the shop, or just shop, depending on context.

Likewise:

• सड़क can mean a road, the road, street, etc.

Context tells you what is meant. In many basic sentences, Hindi simply leaves articles unstated.

Yes. दुकान is feminine in Hindi.

However, in this particular sentence, gender does not visibly change much because the verb is है, which is used for singular is regardless of whether the noun is masculine or feminine.

So both of these use है:

• कमरा बड़ा है। = The room is big.
• दुकान बड़ी है। = The shop is big.

Notice that gender becomes more visible with adjectives like:

• बड़ा for masculine
• बड़ी for feminine

But in दुकान सड़क पर है, the gender is not strongly noticeable just from है.

Often yes, but it can be a little broader depending on context.

सड़क पर can mean:

• on the road
• on the street
• sometimes more naturally by the roadside or on the main road

In English, The shop is on the road can sound a bit odd if taken literally, but in Hindi सड़क पर is a normal way to talk about location near or along a road/street.

So the exact English wording depends on context, even though the Hindi is straightforward.

Yes. In everyday spoken Hindi, पे is a very common colloquial form of पर.

So both are used:

• दुकान सड़क पर है।
• दुकान सड़क पे है।

The meaning is the same.

A useful rule:

• पर = slightly more formal / standard written form
• पे = very common in speech

In Hindi, many nouns do change into an oblique form before a postposition, but some feminine nouns like सड़क often look the same in direct and oblique singular.

So:

• direct: सड़क
• oblique before पर: still सड़क

That is why you see:

• सड़क पर

By contrast, some masculine nouns do show a clearer change before postpositions.

Yes, Hindi word order is somewhat flexible, although not completely free.

The neutral sentence is:

• दुकान सड़क पर है।

But you may also hear:

• सड़क पर दुकान है।

That version puts more attention on the location, something like:

• On the street, there is a shop
• or The shop is on the street

So the basic meaning can stay similar, but the emphasis changes.

A rough pronunciation guide is:

• स = s
• ड़ = a retroflex r/flapped sound, somewhat like a quick tongue curl
• क = k

So सड़क sounds roughly like suh-ruk or sə-ruk, but the middle sound is specifically the Hindi ड़, which does not match ordinary English r perfectly.

A few helpful notes:

• The first vowel is like a weak uh
• The ड़ is produced with the tongue curled back slightly
• The final क is a clean k

If you are a beginner, aiming for something close to suh-ruk is a reasonable start.

Yes, absolutely.

दुकान सड़क पर है। is a normal, complete sentence with:

• a subject: दुकान
• a location phrase: सड़क पर
• a verb: है

It is short, basic, and grammatically correct, which makes it a good beginner sentence for learning:

• noun + location + है
• postpositions like पर
• Hindi end-of-sentence verb placement
