My idea for memorizing pronunciations One of my troubles when learning Urdu is memorizing the proper pronunciation. When I speak to my wife, if I pronounce a word slightly wrong, she doesn't know what I am talking about. It's one thing to make flash cards for vocabulary and memorize words that way, but how can you learn the correct pronunciation by reading something? It came to me the other day that if there is a word I know with great confidence, If I learn words that rhyme with it, I will understand the pronunciation better! Can any Urdu speakers provide me with words that rhyme? I would greatly appreciate it.Nazahat, thank you for your response. I would say I know a very significant amount of Urdu words, far too many to list, but far more 1 or 2-syllable words than 3+ syllable words. To give you a start, we can try interrogative words (kya, kab, kaun, etc.), basic verbs without -na, as all verbs already rhyme (hojana, banana, pakana, etc.), most adjectives (mushkil, khubsurat, bewaquf, etc.) I will take whatever you can offer, since as long as I am able to learn one word's pronunciation, it will help me to remember anything that rhymes with it. Again, thank you very much!
