Souvent confondu avec
Sukha (short 'u') means happiness, while Sūkhā (long 'ū') means dry or drought.
Sūkhā is the state/noun, whereas Sukhānā is the transitive verb action of making something dry.
Notes d'usage
When used as a noun meaning 'drought', it is almost always paired with the verb 'पड़ना' (padna). As an adjective, it changes ending based on the gender of the noun it describes (e.g., sūkhā kapṛā - dry cloth).
Erreurs courantes
Learners often forget to use the long 'ū' sound, making it sound like 'Sukh' (happiness). Another mistake is using the verb 'होना' instead of 'पड़ना' when describing the occurrence of a drought.

Origine du mot
Derived from the Sanskrit word 'शुष्क' (śuṣka), meaning dry or parched.
Modèles grammaticaux
Contexte culturel
In India, 'sūkhā' is a significant socio-economic issue as a large part of the population depends on the monsoon for agriculture.
