SOV + postpositions transfer (advantage!)

Korean and Hindi share verb-final order and noun+marker structure: 에→mein/par, 에서→se, 를→ko run in the same slot as Korean particles. Your sentence skeleton already works.

Politeness levels map (advantage!)

Korean speech levels prepare you for Hindi’s tū/tum/āp — a graded politeness choice on "you" that also changes the verb. Map 반말→tū/tum and 존댓말→āp as a starting rule.

Gender agreement is completely new

Korean has no grammatical gender; Hindi puts masculine/feminine on nouns, adjectives AND verbs (achchhā laṛkā / achchhī laṛkī). This is your single biggest new system — learn every noun with its gender.

Ergative "ne" breaks the particle analogy

Hindi "ne" looks like a subject particle (like 이/가) but only appears on perfective transitive subjects — and it makes the verb agree with the OBJECT. Don’t use it as an all-purpose subject marker.

Noun gender + agreement

Hindi nouns are masculine or feminine, and adjectives AND verbs agree with them (achchhā laṛkā / achchhī laṛkī).

core challenge

Postpositions (ne/ko/se/mein/par)

Hindi marks roles with postpositions AFTER the noun, where English uses prepositions before it.
