मेरे पास कार नहीं है; मैं साइकिल से स्कूल जाती हूँ।

Hindi usually does not express possession with a direct verb like English have. Instead, it often uses a structure that literally means near me / with me:

• मेरे पास = with me / near me
• कार नहीं है = there is no car

So मेरे पास कार नहीं है literally means A car is not with me, which is how Hindi commonly says I do not have a car.

Because पास is used with the oblique form of the pronoun.

Hindi pronouns change form before postpositions:

• मैं → मेरा = my
• मैं → मेरे before a postposition
• मेरे पास = with me / near me

So:

• मेरा is for possession directly before a noun, as in मेरा घर = my house
• मेरे पास is a pronoun + postposition structure

That is why मेरा पास is incorrect.

नहीं is the normal Hindi word for not.

In sentences with है:

• कार है = there is a car / I have a car
• कार नहीं है = there is not a car / I do not have a car

Hindi usually places नहीं before the verb or auxiliary it negates. Here, it comes before है.

So:

• मेरे पास कार नहीं है = I do not have a car

Hindi does not normally use articles like English a, an, and the.

So:

• कार can mean a car or the car, depending on context
• स्कूल can mean school or the school, depending on context

If Hindi wants to be more specific, it can use other words such as:

• एक कार = a/one car
• वह कार = that car / the car in some contexts

But in a normal sentence like this, no article is needed.

Here से means by or using, showing the means of transport.

So:

• साइकिल से = by bicycle
• बस से = by bus
• ट्रेन से = by train

This is a very common use of से in Hindi.

It can also mean other things in other contexts, such as from, than, or with, so its exact meaning depends on the sentence.

Because the speaker is female.

In Hindi, the verb form often agrees with the gender of the subject in this kind of sentence:

• मैं ... जाता हूँ = I go ... said by a male speaker
• मैं ... जाती हूँ = I go ... said by a female speaker

So this sentence is being said by a woman or girl.

If a male were speaking, it would be:

• मेरे पास कार नहीं है; मैं साइकिल से स्कूल जाता हूँ।

This is a very common Hindi verb pattern.

• जाती = the main verb in a habitual/present form, agreeing with gender and number
• हूँ = am, the auxiliary used with मैं

Together:

• मैं जाती हूँ = I go / I am going regularly
• more literally: I am one who goes

This form is often used for habitual actions or general statements, not just something happening right this second.

Hindi normally places the verb at the end of the clause. That is one of the biggest word-order differences from English.

So in:

• मैं साइकिल से स्कूल जाती हूँ

the order is roughly:

• I
  • by bicycle
    • to school
      • go
        • am

That sounds strange in English, but it is normal in Hindi.

More generally, Hindi often follows Subject–Object/Other elements–Verb order.

Yes, Hindi word order is somewhat flexible, as long as the verb stays near the end and the sentence remains clear.

These are all possible, with slight differences in emphasis:

• मैं साइकिल से स्कूल जाती हूँ।
• मैं स्कूल साइकिल से जाती हूँ।
• साइकिल से मैं स्कूल जाती हूँ।

The original version is very natural. It presents by bicycle before to school, which is common and clear.

Changing the order usually changes emphasis, not the basic meaning.

Because स्कूल is a borrowed word from English school.

Modern Hindi uses many loanwords, especially for everyday institutions, technology, transport, and modern life.

So स्कूल is completely normal Hindi vocabulary, even though it came from English originally.

You may also sometimes see more Sanskrit-based words in formal contexts, but स्कूल is the ordinary everyday word.

The semicolon links two closely related clauses:

• मेरे पास कार नहीं है
• मैं साइकिल से स्कूल जाती हूँ

The idea is:

• first clause: no car
• second clause: so I go to school by bicycle

In Hindi writing, a full stop, comma, or और could also be used depending on style. The semicolon here simply shows that the two thoughts are connected.

Usually, yes.

The form जाती हूँ often expresses a regular or habitual action:

• I go to school by bicycle
• I travel to school by bicycle

It does not usually mean a one-time action like I am going right now. For an action happening at this moment, Hindi often uses a different structure, such as जा रही हूँ.

So in this sentence, the meaning is most naturally a general habit or routine.
