"Julia's house"

Translation: जूलिया का घर

[TongXinM]

Why is this possession particle “का”? What are the rules on the particles “का” and “की”

[aaditsingh8]

का goes for masculine objects, की for feminine objects, and के for plural masculine objects. :D

[nikhil04011998]

But we don't know what gender ghar belongs to... Is there any technique to remember those type of words with it's gender

[aswin529184]

julia is a feminist object , so ki should be right

[ph.Zg26iR]

But there is का in the meaning box

[AndySW1]

Its ka because School is masculine

[Peacefulautistic]

I just asked this question before scrolling down and seeing your answer here. You sir are a legend! धन्यवाद!

[iPatriot1]

But here Julia is feminine and hence it should be Ki right?

[Aakhil6]

घर is a masculine thing in Hindi.

[E.Tamilselvi]

Thanyavath...

[sajay64]

Nice try. It should be dhanyavath

[ganeshkp]

Thank you

[keyruntej]

How do we know which is masculine and which is feminine??

[Aakhil6]

That's the hardest part, because it doesn't work as usual. There are always exceptions.
The normal rule is if a word ends in अ as in लड़का , then it's masculine otherwise if it ends in इ, ई as in बिल्ली then it's feminine.

[IAmCrazyHope]

So it's pretty much the exact opposite of Latin based languages, where words that end with 'a' are feminine!

Thank you

I just typed जूलिया की घर for fun , and it came ... "Excellent!"

[bino_b_anil]

Haha

[aswin529184]

Can we write जूलिया की घर

[DevSahu14]

जूलिया का घर

[Andrew-LD]

I thought the person being spoken about is what made it masculine or feminine. In this case the house is Julia's so I put 'ki'.

[EshSahu]

Exactly, I did the same thing. It's be helpful if there were some rules given along the way instead of us figuring it out (or not) along the way!

[ASWATHYA2]

julia ki ghar -is this wrong?

[usman670591]

I love in India

[elainesald4]

as mentioned in earlier comments, my answer as accepted, even though GHAR is masculine. so are both ki and ka acceptable?

[ph.FIk4KT]

Can anyone please tell me 'vah' means 'that' or ' he'?

[ph.FHK42q]

Both according to the sentence

[ph.wHwC1z]

Julia is girl's name right. So should not i use का here
