In English we use verb “should” to indicate the desired behavior.
e.g. “He should go to school”; “You should take medicine”; “They should not have done this” etc.
In Gujarati sentence formation is
| Form of subject with suffix એ(e) | object | Main verb + form of વો(vo) as per gender and multiplicity of object | form of “જોઇતું હોવું”(joituM hovuM) as per object and tense |
|---|---|---|---|
| મારે (mAre ) | કેરી(kerI) | ખાવી (khAvI ) | જોઇએ છે (joie Che) |
As you would have guessed, form of વો(vo) are
| Masculine singular | વો (vo) |
| Feminine Singular/ Plural | વી (vI) |
| Neuter Singular | વું (vuM) |
| Masculine plural | વા (vA) |
| Neuter plural | વાં (vAM) |
So these forms follow the pattern discussed in lesson
ઓ-ઈ-ઉં-આ-ઈ-આં (o-I-uM-A-I-AM ) યો-ઈ-યું-યા-ઈ-યાં ( yo-I-yuM-yA-I-yAM ) rule
Form of subject with suffix એ(e)
| Pronoun in English | Pronoun in Gujarati | Special form to be used with suffix એ(e) |
|---|---|---|
| I | હું | મારે (mAre ) |
| we | અમે | અમારે (amAre ) |
| we ( listenr including) | આપણે | આપણે (ApaNe) |
| You (singular) | તું | તારે (tAre ) |
| You (plural) | તમે | તમારે (tamAre) |
| He /She /It (when person or thing is near ) / This (m./f/n.) | આ | આણે(ANe) |
| He /She /It (when person or thing is far ) / That (m./f./n.) | એ તે | એણે(eNe) તેણે (teNe) |
| These (for person ) Those (for person ) They (for person ) | આ એ તેઓ | આમણે (AmaNe) એમણે (emaNe) તેમણે (temaNe)/ તેઓએ (teoe) |
| They / Those / These (for nonliving thing) | એ | એમણે (emaNe) |
If object is not present then we will consider it as neuter singular.
In present tense we omit છે(Che). So instead of જોઇએ છે(joie Che) we just say
જોઇએ (joie)
e.g.
I should eat mango -> મારે કેરી ખાવી જોઇએ (mAre kerI khAvI joie )
You should eat fruit -> તારે ફળ ખાવું જોઇએ (tAre phaL khAvuM joie )
He should have sung -> એણે ગાવું જોઇતું હતું (eNe gAvuM joituM hatuM )
She should have danced -> તેણે નાચવું જોઇતું હતું (teNe nAchavuM joituM hatuM )
Kaushik should say a story -> કૌશિકે કથા કહેવી જોઇએ (kaushike kathA kahevI joie)
