    When we talk about someone with respect, it can translate to: He does not feel hot.

    Is this invariably about personal perception, or could this sentence be used to talk about something that doesn't seem hot to the touch (albeit with a different pronoun. eg. 'these things')?

      Should this sentence have the nasal on the hai since unhen is plural?

      Wait for someone who knows what they're talking about to confirm, but I think when using this construction with the verb lagna, garmi, not unhen, is the subject.

      Could it also be translated "It does not seem hot to them"?

        No, that would be "यह उन्हें गरम नहीं लगता है।"

          "warm" should be right too?

            I also answered with: "They do not feel warm" -> should be correct
