Questions & Answers about उसका काम सफल हुआ।
What does उसका mean here?
उसका means his, her, or sometimes its, depending on context.
It comes from the pronoun वह (he / she / that). In this sentence, उसका काम means his work or her work.
Hindi often leaves gender to context, so उसका by itself does not tell you whether the person is male or female.
Why is it उसका and not उसकी or उसके?
Because possessive words in Hindi agree with the thing possessed, not with the possessor.
Here, the possessed noun is काम (work / task), which is:
- masculine
- singular
So the correct possessive form is का:
- उसका काम = his/her work
Compare:
- उसकी किताब = his/her book (किताब is feminine)
- उसके दोस्त = his/her friends (दोस्त is plural)
This is one of the most important patterns in Hindi possession.
