2 years on and no one has answered you, Ray. lol. Even I have the same question
haha! I've opened Duolingo after ages thanks to your msg. How long have you been learning Hindi?
48 days - trying to get on top of it since learning it back in middle school haha
It's simply a phrase you have to learn, in this case. "Shaam" goes with "ko." The different times of day go with different postpositions.
In the morning: सूबह (no postposition) In the afternoon: दोपहर में In the evening: शाम को At night: रात को
In Hindi मे means "inbetween something" and not used for"time" When you translate from English to Hindi, you may think it is right but sometimes it is not.
How come sometimes the future tense has a u in the middle and sometimes it does not?
I think he will play at the evening should be accepted. It was marked incorrect. Reported
"शम" = "evening" rather than "night" ("रात").
Also, "he will play in the evening" doesn't mean that it will happen today — it could be aby time in the future (e.g. "What time will he play on Wednesday?")
Because tonight is an English term that does not clearly indicate evening or night while hindi has words that make this distinction
I missed out "the" here like: "He will play in 'the' evening".......................................... So my question is, is 'the' really important here? Or can we omit it?? Correct me if I am wrong.. Thank you in advance for the one(or for the ones) answered this:)
