As per the proposals given in the National Education Policy, students would be encouraged to learn various subjects in the regional languages instead of simply focusing on learning in English. This is where knowing Hindi names of very basic arithmetic operations could be handy from a very young age. If you try teaching these Hindi names to grown-ups, they would find it very difficult because their brain has been already trained in using the English language.
So, in this post, we provide the names of various terms and operations used in arithmetic in Hindi. If you have any questions, feedback, or suggestion, please feel free to write to us through the comment section. Also, if you know any other name which can be useful for children who are learning arithmetic, please do share with us.
