Noticed my mum refer to salad dressing as 'तुझं काय ते सलाड ड्रेसिंग' [tuzha kāy te salāḍ ḍresiṅg], and it struck me that the Marathi काय ते [kāy te] has a nuance that's untranslatable for me.

It means something like "or whatever", but also has a tinge of "so-called".

त्यांचा काय तो स्पंज केक [tyāṅčā kāy to spaṅj kek] would be something like "Their so-called sponge cake or whatever".

How to learn Marathi online from home ?

Ever been captivated by the rhythm of a Bollywood song or the vibrant culture of Maharashtra? If you're yearning to delve deeper, consider this: Marathi, the official language of Maharashtra, is your key! And the best part? You can unlock this linguistic treasure trove right from your home. So, ditch the plane tickets and grab a cup of chai, because we're about to embark on a Marathi learning adventure!

1. Start with the Basics: Building Your Foundation

Marathi, like any language, has its own building blocks. Luckily, numerous online resources cater to beginners. Websites like 50Languages offer free, bite-sized lessons that introduce essential vocabulary and grammar. Supplement this with YouTube channels like "Learn Marathi from Scratch" – their 100-lesson series provides a comprehensive grounding.

2. Tune in and Learn: The Power of Audio Immersion

Learning a language is about familiarization. Here's where the magic of audio comes in! Subscribe to Marathi podcasts or language learning apps like Duolingo (if they offer Marathi). Listen while commuting, doing chores, or even while relaxing. The constant exposure will subconsciously train your ear to pick up sounds and rhythms.

3. From Textbooks to Television: Dive into Marathi Media

As you progress, it's time to graduate to more engaging content. Marathi newspapers and online articles will enhance your reading comprehension. Don't be intimidated by unfamiliar script – many online resources offer transliterations in Roman characters. Feeling adventurous? Tune into Marathi movies and TV shows with subtitles. Start with children's programs for simpler vocabulary, then gradually move on to more complex content.

4. Speak Up! Find Your Language Exchange Partner

The key to mastering any language is using it! Here's where the internet shines. Platforms like Hindustani Tongue and more connect you with native Marathi speakers for language exchange. Don't worry if you're a beginner – most partners are eager to help you learn while they practice your native tongue.

5. Embrace the Culture: Marathi Beyond the Textbook

Language is woven into the tapestry of a culture. Explore Marathi music – the soulful Lavani or the energetic Koli songs will not only introduce new vocabulary but also give you a taste of Marathi artistic expression. Follow Marathi influencers or bloggers on social media – their everyday posts offer a glimpse into the culture and language in use.

6. Celebrate Small Victories and Stay Motivated

Learning a language is a marathon, not a sprint. There will be days when frustration sets in. But remember, every new word learned, every conversation held, is a victory! Reward yourself for reaching milestones, and find a language learning buddy to keep each other motivated.

Marathi awaits you, filled with rich history and vibrant culture. With dedication and the right online resources, you can unlock this linguistic treasure from the comfort of your home. So, what are you waiting for? Start your Marathi journey today!

#bommarullu was SO bad #and they were like omg it’s amazing #and then they won’t watch a marathi movie with me #like girl if I have to sit through this shit I deserve some kind of compensation #I don’t care if you don’t like the marathi movie I know you have no taste let’s just watch it so I can ignore you for 2 hours #sidenote I am so glad that I have stopped caring about stuff #I used to never go to events alone and never went anywhere because my friends didn’t want to go #now I just go without them and don’t even tell them #it’s honestly more fun that way #independence is something that has taken me a while to learn but it is so freeing #naina.txt
