The Four Main Seasons in Hindi
1. वसंत ऋतु (Vasant Ritu) – Spring
Spring, or वसंत ऋतु (Vasant Ritu), is a season of renewal and growth. It typically begins in February and ends in April. This period is characterized by pleasant weather, blooming flowers, and many cultural festivals such as Holi, the festival of colors. In Hindi, you might say, “वसंत ऋतु में मौसम सुहावना होता है” (Vasant ritu mein mausam suhaavna hota hai) meaning “The weather is pleasant in spring.”
2. ग्रीष्म ऋतु (Grishm Ritu) – Summer
Summer is called ग्रीष्म ऋतु (Grishm Ritu) in Hindi and lasts from April to June. This season is known for its high temperatures and dry climate in most parts of India. Popular activities include enjoying cool drinks and wearing light clothing. To describe the heat, you can use, “ग्रीष्म ऋतु में बहुत गर्मी होती है” (Grishm ritu mein bahut garmi hoti hai), which means “It is very hot in summer.”
3. वर्षा ऋतु (Varsha Ritu) – Monsoon/Rainy Season
The monsoon season, or वर्षा ऋतु (Varsha Ritu), generally occurs from July to September. This season brings heavy rainfall and is vital for agriculture in India. The arrival of monsoon is eagerly anticipated after the hot summer. You might hear, “वर्षा ऋतु में बहुत बारिश होती है” (Varsha ritu mein bahut barish hoti hai), meaning “There is a lot of rain in the monsoon season.”
4. शरद ऋतु (Sharad Ritu) – Autumn
Autumn, known as शरद ऋतु (Sharad Ritu), spans from October to November. The temperatures start to drop, and the weather becomes more comfortable. This season is also associated with major festivals like Diwali. In Hindi, you can say, “शरद ऋतु में मौसम ठंडा होने लगता है” (Sharad ritu mein mausam thanda hone lagta hai), which means “The weather starts to get cooler in autumn.”
Other Seasonal Terms in Hindi
India also recognizes two additional seasons:
- हेमंत ऋतु (Hemant Ritu) – Pre-winter (November to December)
- शिशिर ऋतु (Shishir Ritu) – Winter (January to February)
During शिशिर ऋतु (Shishir Ritu), you might say, “सर्दी बहुत तेज़ है” (Sardi bahut tez hai), meaning “It is very cold.”
