100 Sentences of Past Indefinite Tense in Hindi

1. Definition and Explanation

What is the Past Indefinite Tense?

The Past Indefinite Tense (साधारण भूतकाल) is used to describe actions that happened in the past and were completed at that time. In Hindi, it is often referred to as the Simple Past Tense. This tense is used when we want to state a fact or narrate an event that took place in the past.

How is it Formed in Hindi?

For transitive verbs (verbs that take a direct object) in Hindi with an explicit object, the construction is typically:

Subject + ने + Object + Verb (with the appropriate past-participle ending).

Note on Agreement:
In an ergative construction (when “ने” is used), the past-participle usually agrees with the object in gender and number. However, in everyday usage, many speakers use a more simplified form. In the examples below, we have tried to keep the sentences simple and natural.

For instance:

• “मैंने खाना खाया।”
  • Here, “खाया” is the masculine singular form.
• “मैंने किताब पढ़ी।”
  • Here, “किताब” is feminine, so the past-participle “पढ़ी” is in the feminine singular form.

For intransitive verbs (verbs that do not require a direct object), the verb is simply conjugated in its past form.

Key Points to Remember:

• The marker “ने” is used with the subject in sentences with transitive verbs.
• The ending of the past-participle changes according to the gender (masculine/feminine) and number (singular/plural) of the object (or the subject when there is no expressed object).
• The tense indicates that the action is completed and occurred in the past.
