How to say “I've finished ...” in Hindi

Say that a task or piece of work is complete.

I've finished …

Name the completed item and add a next step if useful.

Use it in three situations

  1. A work update

    मैंने पहला ड्राफ़्ट पूरा कर लिया है।maine pehla draft poora kar liya hai.

    I've finished the first draft.

  2. Reporting a completed section

  3. Confirming a delivery

A note on speaking Hindi

These examples generally use respectful आप (aap). Familiar तुम (tum) changes the verb ending, and तू (tu) can sound too intimate or disrespectful in the wrong relationship. Where gender changes a first-person form, choose the version that describes the speaker.

Read the Devanagari alongside the romanization. Romanization is a reading aid rather than an exact description of every sound. Everyday Hindi can use familiar loanwords, while a literal English word order may sound unnatural.
