Listening to Nepali
- How it sounds
- Kathmandu, hill and Terai speech differ in accent.
- Mixed speech
- Speech mixes in English and Hindi words, especially in cities — the transcript keeps it as it was said before it is translated.
- Sentence order
- Nepali puts the verb at the end and English puts the verb after the subject, so sentences are rebuilt, not swapped word for word.
- Where it is spoken
- Nepali is spoken in Nepal, Sikkim and Darjeeling.
What changes in English
- Politeness
- Nepali has tapai (respectful), timi (familiar) and ta (very close); hajur for the most respect; in English it becomes "you", with the respect carried by the wording.
- Numbers
- Numbers said in Nepali come out as figures (0–9) in the English.
Example
What was said (Nepali):
सरले परीक्षा शुक्रबार हो भन्नुभएको छ। अध्याय ४ र ५ पुनरावृत्ति गर्नुहोला, र आफ्नो क्यालकुलेटर ल्याउनुहोला।
You read (English):
Sarala said the exam is on Friday. Please review chapters 4 and 5, and bring your calculator.

Questions
Is translating Nepali audio to English free?
Yes — clips up to 3 minutes and 25 MB, 3 times a day, no sign-up.
Will it follow a Nepali speaker with a strong accent?
Clear audio with one speaker at a time works best. Strong regional accents and background noise can cause mistakes, so check names and numbers against the recording.
