Describing Appearances in Chinese (In a Nice Way)!

Hello Listeners !
Today i gonna introduce you The subjunctive mood verb in Hindi.
Introduction
The subjunctive mood is very common in Hindi.
The titles of many popular movies contain the subjunctive mood, such as:
“जाने तू या जाने न” – “Whether you know it or not”
“कल हो न हो” – “Tomorrow may or may not be”, i.e. there might not be any tomorrow
“रंग दे बसंती” – “Color (me) basanti” (a color signifying a patriotic sacrifice)
If you visit India, you will probably encounter signs that use the subjunctive mood, such as:
“कृपया मंदिर के बहार अपने जूते उतार दें” – “Please remove your shoes outside the temple”
“कृपया रेलिंग से दुरी बनाये रखें” – “Please keep a distance from the railing”
If you fly on an airplane in India, you will hear announcements that use the subjunctive mood, such as:
सभी यात्रियों से निवेदन है कि वे अपनी कुर्सी की पेटी बांध लें – “We request that all passengers fasten their seat belt”
सभी यात्रियों से अनुरोध है कि वे अपना सामान अकेला न छोड़ें – “We request that all passengers not leave their baggage unattended”
You will probably hear some common expressions that involve the subjunctive mood, such as:
जो हो सो हो – “Whatever will be will be”
मैंने उसे सुझाव दिया कि वह वकील से बात करे – I suggested that he talk to a lawyer In the previous example, the verb बात करे is in the subjunctive mood and is in the subordinate clause कि वह वकील से बात करे. It is “unreal” because it is a suggestion, not an actual event.
उसने मुझे बताया कि उसने वकील से बात की In the previous example, the indicative verb बात की was used because the speaker is describing an actual event.
Hope you enjoying this episode. I will try to cover maximum possibilities of subjunctive mood in coming episodes. Thank you.

小王子第三十章：拥有星星

“Well, as I’m still a uni  student, doing things on the cheap is something I've had to learn over the last few years, and just the weekend before last, myself and my 2 best mates had a really wonderful day out that cost next to nothing.




It was a bank holiday weekend, and we really wanted to have a special day out, as the weather forecast was perfect, and we really needed to get away from our studies. 




To do anything in the city, especially during a holiday weekend, always costs a lot of money, and as we were flat broke,  we decided to look for somewhere to go outside of the city. One of the guys came up with the idea of riding our bikes to a very beautiful park and lake, about 15 km outside of the city. 




We all agreed it would be a great idea, and each chipped in some cash, so we could buy some nice food in the local supermarket, as there is a barbeque area in the park which is free to use.
It turned out to be a really wonderful and special day, and was as cheap as chips, as riding our bikes meant there was no transport cost, and entry to the park was actually free. I think in total we spent about 24 dollars on the food between the three of us, and it really goes to show that it’s still possible to have a really special day out that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
