Questions & Answers about क्या तुम्हारा स्कूल मेरे घर से ज़्यादा दूर है?
Why does the sentence start with क्या?
At the beginning of a sentence, क्या usually marks a yes/no question.
So:
- तुम्हारा स्कूल मेरे घर से ज़्यादा दूर है। = Your school is farther from my house.
- क्या तुम्हारा स्कूल मेरे घर से ज़्यादा दूर है? = Is your school farther from my house?
In everyday speech, Hindi speakers can sometimes ask a yes/no question just with intonation, but starting with क्या is a very common and clear way to do it.
Why is it तुम्हारा and not तुम्हारी or तुम्हारे?
Because तुम्हारा agrees with स्कूल.
In Hindi, possessive words like मेरा / मेरी / मेरे and तुम्हारा / तुम्हारी / तुम्हारे change according to the gender and number of the noun they describe.
Here:
- स्कूल is treated as masculine singular
- so the correct form is तुम्हारा स्कूल
Compare:
- तुम्हारा स्कूल = your school
- तुम्हारी किताब = your book
- तुम्हारे दोस्त = your friends
Why is it मेरे घर से and not मेरा घर से?
This is because Hindi uses an oblique form before postpositions like से, , , , etc.
