What It Means
This phrase is a basic building block of Hindi. It literally means to sit on a chair. कुर्सी is the word for chair. बैठना is the verb for sitting. The word पर acts like the English word 'on'. It is a direct, literal expression. You will use it daily in almost any setting.
How To Use It
In Hindi, the word order is usually Subject-Object-Verb. So, you would typically say कुर्सी पर बैठना. To use it in a sentence, you conjugate the verb. For a polite request, say कुर्सी पर बैठिए. For a friend, use कुर्सी पर बैठो. If you are currently sitting, say मैं कुर्सी पर बैठा हूँ. It is very flexible and easy to learn.
When To Use It
Use this phrase whenever a chair is involved. Use it when welcoming a guest to your home. Use it at a doctor's office or a job interview. It is perfect for telling a child to sit down. You can also use it when describing where someone is located. It is a functional, 'workhorse' phrase for your vocabulary.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use this for sitting on the floor. For the floor, use ज़मीन पर बैठना. If you are sitting on a sofa, use सोफ़े पर बैठना. Avoid using पर (on) for vehicles like cars. For cars, use में (in), as in गाड़ी में बैठना. Also, don't use it metaphorically for 'holding a position' yet. That requires more advanced grammar.
Cultural Background
In India, offering a chair is a sign of deep respect. The phrase अतिथि देवो भव means 'The guest is God.' Even in modest homes, hosts will find a chair for guests. Older family members often have a 'special' designated chair. The white plastic 'monobloc' chair is iconic in Indian street culture. Sitting together on chairs often signals a shift toward formal conversation.
Common Variations
You might hear कुर्सी ले लो, meaning 'take a chair.' Another common one is कुर्सी पर बैठ जाइए for extra politeness. If someone is being lazy, you might hear कुर्सी से उठो. This means 'get up from the chair.' In offices, people might say अपनी कुर्सी पर जाओ. This means 'go to your seat.'
使い方のコツ
The phrase is neutral and safe for all contexts. Just remember to use 'Aap' (formal you) with 'Baithiye' to avoid sounding bossy.
