Over the past few years, more and more people of foreign nationalities have moved to India for purposes other than tourism. In order to feel integrated with the local culture, they often find it necessary to learn the local language. Hindi is widely spoken as either the first or second language across North, Central, and some parts of Western India.
English-speaking foreign nationals face many difficulties in trying to learn Hindi. One of the major difficulties is that the grammatical structure of Hindi is very different from that of English, making it difficult for them to pick up the language without learning the Grammar. Grammar is essential when it comes to sentence-building. It defines the rules by which words come together in a sentence. The identified problem was that the users found it difficult to build sentences with the vocabulary that they had learned or might learn along the way. The objective of the tool was to come up with a sentence-building tool that would help learners internalise grammar rules. Along with building sentences, learning another important skill required by the users—speaking—was also part of the tool.
