Primary School - Swar Vyanjan – 1 Varna Viched ( वर्ण विच्छेद )

In the Hindi language, there are 13 Swar (Vowels) which are used as alphabets as well as signs (Matras) with 37 Vyanjans (consonants).

v  vk   b   bZ    Å    ,   ,s   vks  vkS  va  v%
    &     f      q    w     `     s    S    ks    kS    a  % 

v is the first swar (Vowel) in the series of Hindi varnamala. It does not have a sign (matra) All the Vyanjan (Consonants) end with the sound of  v.
eg.  dv·] [k
  
At Primary level, kids are taught the concept of Halanth ( ~).

Without the Matra of Swar (Vowel) v the consonants (Vyanjans) are written with Halanth ( ~ ). e.g.-  

d~
[k~
Xk~
?k~
³~
Pk~
N~
t~
>~
´~
V~
B~
M~

Hk~
e~

j~

‘k~
“k~
l~
g~

{k~
=~
K~
J~

  
When all the consonants (Vyanjans) are added the matra of ‘v’ the halanth  ( ~ ) is removed and varnamala is written as follows-


d
[k
Xk
?k
³
Pk
N
t

In Varna Viched ( o.kZ foPNsn  ) kids are taught to identify the matra of swar and Vyanjan (consonant) and divide the alphabets of the word.

e.g. -         Q~ $ v $ u~ $ v   & Qu
           ,  $ M+~ $ bZ        & ,M+h   
       Fk~ $ ,s $ y~ $ vk   & FkSyk

The second post on this topic contains the graded pictorial worksheets for Primary school kids. Again I would like to emphasize that group learning and parental/teacher guidance is very important at this stage of learning.
Please refer to  Swar Vyanjan – 2 Varna Viched ( वर्ण विच्छेद ) for the worksheets.
