Hindi is a fun language to learn; the problem is most learning materials are costly and make language learning too complicated. They start off well, but then advance too quickly. Just like those dreaded language classes in school. The result; nothing sinks in, you become overwhelmed, and eventually give up. We know learning a foreign language isn’t easy. It challenges both your brain and your time.
