डॉलर में बदलो

Using this phrase is like a walk in the park. You just state the amount or the currency you have first. For example, "Rupees ko dollar mein badlo." The word mein acts like "into" or "in." It bridges the starting point and the result. You can use it as a command or a polite request. Just add kripya (please) at the beginning for extra politeness.

You will mostly use this at a forex counter at the airport. It is also perfect for a bank visit. If you are a freelancer, you might say this to your client. Use it whenever money is crossing borders. It is also common when discussing investment strategies with a consultant. Even when playing a board game like Monopoly, it works!

Don't use this if you are talking about the exchange rate itself. For rates, use the word bhaav or rate. Also, avoid using badlo in very high-level legal contracts. In those cases, the word parivartit is preferred. Don't use it for non-monetary changes. You wouldn't use it to ask someone to change their clothes! That would be quite confusing and funny.
