Mistakes English speakers make with दिन
Incorrect: Main din jaata hoon bazaar.
Correct: Main din mein bazaar jaata hoon. / Main roz bazaar jaata hoon.
Din alone is the day; for "during the day" use din mein, and for "every day" prefer roz.
Incorrect: Mera din achhi thi.
Correct: Mera din achha tha.
Din is masculine, so adjectives and tha/thi follow: achha tha, not achhi thi.
Good to know
People often ask din kaisa raha? (how was your day?) in the evening, much like English. Festivals are marked as bada din in some families, and office chat mixes din with English deadline and shift.
