  • Notice words with द in the middle: Words such as उदाहरण, विद्यार्थी, and धन्यवाद help you practice recognizing द within longer words.
  • Read complete sentences: Connecting vocabulary with sentences makes it easier to remember meanings and improve reading fluency

ण has a retroflex “Na” sound. When you pronounce it, your tongue curls slightly backward.

It is different from न, which is a dental sound. ण is pronounced further back in the mouth.

Unlike letters such as न, ण is less common at the beginning of everyday Nepali words. You will often see it inside words, especially in combinations such as ण, ण्ड, ण्त, ण्य, ण्म, and र्ण.

Today, we’ll learn 50 useful Nepali words containing ण. This will help you recognize ण when reading real Nepali words.

The letter ण appears in many different positions and combinations.

At the beginning

ण is rarely found at the beginning of common modern Nepali words.

Inside words

You can see ण clearly in words such as:

गणना · गणित · गुण · पूर्ण · वर्णन · कारण · निर्माण · प्रशिक्षण · प्राण · प्रणाम

In letter combinations

ण्ड → दण्ड, पण्डित
र्ण → पूर्ण, वर्ण, कर्ण
ण्त → गणतन्त्र, निमन्त्रण
ण्य → पुण्य, प्रणय

Learning these combinations will make it easier to recognize ण while reading longer Nepali words.


EnglishRomanized NepaliNepali
I am studying mathematics.Ma ganit padhdai chhu.म गणित पढ्दै छु।
We need to make a decision.Haamile nirnaya garnuparchha.हामीले निर्णय गर्नुपर्छ।

Environmental protection is important.Paryawaran sanrakshan mahatwapurna chha.पर्यावरण संरक्षण महत्त्वपूर्ण छ।
Please explain the situation.Kripaya paristhitiko byakhya garnuhos.कृपया परिस्थितिको व्याख्या गर्नुहोस्।

Read this sentence slowly:

गणितको पूर्ण परिणाम वर्णन गर्दै प्राणी संरक्षणको महत्त्व बुझ्नुहोस्।

Now try to identify all the words containing ण.

Remember: ण is a retroflex sound, and you will usually encounter it inside words rather than at the beginning of common Nepali words.

ढ has a strong retroflex sound. When you pronounce it, your tongue curls slightly backward. It is different from ध, which has a softer aspirated dental sound.

Today, instead of learning only words that begin with ढ, we’ll learn 30 useful Nepali words that contain the letter ढ.

This will help you recognize ढ when reading real Nepali words.

🔤 Notice the Letter ढ

The letter ढ can appear in many different words and word forms:

ढोका · ढुङ्गा · ढल · ढिलो · ढाँचा · ढाड · ढल्किनु · ढोग्नु · ढाल · ढक्कन

It also appears in words such as:

पढ्नु · पढाइ · बढ्नु · चढ्नु · चढाइ · सिँढी

This is useful because you will often encounter ढ inside a word rather than only at the beginning.

Here are some useful examples containing ड:

डब्बा · डोरी · डाँडा · डाक्टर · डढेलो · डमरु · डुब्नु · डुङ्गा · घडी · गडबडी

You can also find ड in words such as:

अण्डा · पण्डित · नाडी · जाडो · जोड्नु · काँडा
