Chowdhury

Non-PRO English to Hindi Art/Literary Linguistics
I need this Hindi name written in Hindi letters.

I've seen चोधरी and चौधरी, so I need to know, which one is correct or more correct? Which one is the original version?

I also need the pronunciation, because I'm not sure about the vowels. JO or JAU? And DHU or DHA?
But I know, the first letter is not CH, but J.
And which vowels are long and which are short?
Basically, I need the pronunciation, too.

Explanations in English, please, except for Hindi script examples!

Thank you.

PRO (1): acetran

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

CH and J Yes, I mixed up च CH and ज J. But they look soooo similar.

चौधरी is correct चौधरी is correct, not चोधरी

1. IMHO it is CH only, not J.

It is usually pronounced as CH+AU+DHA+RY चौ + ध + री
