"Your daughter lives in America."

Translation: तेरी बेटी अमेरिका में रहती है।

[A-Person42]

Would one ever address a person old enough to have a daughter with तेरी rather than तुम्हारी? I understood तेरी to be informal or to younger people.

[zeebo7]

Realistically no, unless they were being especially spiteful at the fact that he'd sent her to America...

[emrys29]

Why not. You could use it with your son or nephew whose daughter happens to live in America.

[KirthikD]

Yeah would they ever reply wether is it teri or thumari whhhhaaaahhh !!!

[MihiYoon]

Of course, if you are some old lady who is talking to a mother whose daughter lives in America. Old people get away with this informal way of speaking.

What's wrong with उसकी बेटी अमेरिका में रहती है।?

[GoWiP]

That means 'her daughter', not 'your daughter'.

[Mahadyutim]

why "rahti" instead of "rahta"?

[GoWiP]

Because बेटी is female (daughter).

[RadhaRani380014]

because it said beti (daughter) and daughter is of feminne gender

[Annami_M]

So now im telling them that their daughter lives in america!!

[Tharanipri]

Why it is not "aapki beti"

[CHANCHALME11]

Teri word is quite odd
Not only for older people but for us also ☹️

[ArunJohny]

Why not aapki instead of teri?

[GabrielBou109736]

Why is तुहारी instead of तेरी corrected as a typo?

[HenriAt1]

Because you're forgetting to type the "m" sound: तुम्हारी

[Rudranch]

Why i use तेरी

[ph.X6f5Cm]

तेरी/तुम्हारी एक अर्थ है निवेदन है कि सुधार लाएं।

[ph.X6f5Cm]

अमेरिका को अमरीका भी लिखा जाता है।

[RKlover]

Can't it be tera beti? Why is it teri beti. I know that beti is feminine but why should the pronoun change according to it? The verb usually changes. Like... Beti rehti or beta rehta.

[AYHwje]

you'd actually want to use "tumhari" instead of teri in a real life situation, cuz mostly you talk about this to people a bit elder to you or above you in position. teri is disrespectful in that scenario. it is very informal.
