there are 4 seasons (Rtu-ऋतु) in the Indian cycle. these are : 1. Spring: वसन्त (Vasanta) 2. Summer: ग्रीष्म (Grīṣma) 3. Rainy: वर्षा (Varṣā) 4. Autumn: शरद् (Sharad) 5. Winter : शिशिर (Shishir) You add ऋतु at the end of each to talk about the seasons as वर्षा ऋतु ( rainy season) धन्यवाद

Hi Hari Thank you for your answers covering all 4 seasons. Spring: वसन्त (Vasanta) वसंत is another way to spell. Please make three corrections: 7.1 Activities बसंत- wrong spelling Basant- wrong transliteration Spring 7.11 Type of Shops वसन्त vasanth-wrong transliteration Spring 7.1 Activities बसंत ऋतु में तुम किस प्रकार का खेल खेलते हो? -wrong spelling Basant rrittu mein tum kis prakaar ka khel khelte ho?-wrong transliteration What kind of sports do you do in the spring?

Hi John As mentioned in another of the forum questions, the "Ba" that you see in "Vasant" is actually an example of the influence of the local language. there are some languages which do not have the "va" sound and hence that "va" is replaced by "ba" as here. As for the transliteration, it is quite common to add the "h" to words though i agree it is not correct and needs to be changed if one wants to learn the proper speaking. धन्यवाद
