Follow these steps to perform morphological analysis of Hindi words using the interactive simulation and Add-Delete table methodology:

Step 1: Word Selection and Initial Analysis

1.1 Select a Root Word

• Action: Click on the "Select Word" dropdown menu
• Options: Choose from the available Hindi words (e.g., बच्चा, लड़का, मकान, etc.)
• Expected Result: The word will be displayed in the interface, and the paradigm table will show all its morphological variants
• Note: Each word belongs to a specific paradigm class and will have predictable morphological patterns

1.2 Observe the Paradigm Table

• Action: Examine the paradigm table that appears after word selection
• Information Displayed:
  • All morphological variants of the selected word
  • Grammatical features (Number: Singular/Plural, Case: Direct/Oblique)
  • Complete word forms for each combination
• Purpose: Understand the complete morphological structure of the word

Step 2: Understanding the Add-Delete Table

2.1 Analyze the Table Structure

The Add-Delete table consists of four main sections:

• Delete Column: What needs to be removed from the root word
• Add Column: What needs to be added to create the new form
• Number: Singular or Plural
• Case: Direct or Oblique

2.2 Identify the Pattern

• Task: Observe how the root word transforms across different grammatical categories
• Look For:
  • Consistent deletion patterns
  • Systematic addition patterns
  • Relationship between grammatical features and morphological changes

Step 3: Interactive Analysis Using Add-Delete Table

3.1 Fill the Delete Column

• Action: For each row in the Add-Delete table, identify what part of the root word needs to be deleted
• Method:
  • Compare the root word with the target form
  • Identify the common part that remains
  • Determine what part needs to be removed
• Example: For बच्चा → बच्चे, you need to delete आ (aa)

3.2 Fill the Add Column

• Action: For each row, identify what suffix needs to be added
• Method:
  • Look at the target word form
  • Identify the suffix that creates the desired grammatical feature
  • Select the appropriate suffix from the dropdown options
• Example: For बच्चा → बच्चे (plural), you need to add ए (e)

3.3 Verify Grammatical Features

• Action: Ensure the Number and Case columns match the target word form
• Check:
  • Number: Is the target form singular or plural?
  • Case: Is the target form in direct or oblique case?
• Reference: Use the paradigm table to verify the correct grammatical features

Step 4: Answer Verification and Learning

4.1 Submit Your Analysis

• Action: Click the "Check Answer" button after filling all dropdowns
• Expected Result:
  • ✅ Correct answers will be highlighted in green
  • ❌ Incorrect answers will be highlighted in red
  • Feedback message will indicate overall performance

4.2 Learn from Results

• Action: Review the feedback and identify areas for improvement
• Focus On:
  • Patterns you missed
  • Incorrect suffix selections
  • Misunderstanding of grammatical features
• Strategy: Try to understand why certain answers were incorrect

4.3 Use the "Get Answer" Feature

• Action: Click the "Get Answer" button to see the correct solutions
• Expected Result:
  • All dropdowns will be set to the correct answers
  • The complete Add-Delete table will be displayed with correct transformations
  • Detailed explanation of the morphological analysis will be shown

Step 5: Practice and Mastery

5.1 Try Different Words

• Action: Select different words from the dropdown to practice with various paradigm classes
• Learning Objective:
  • Recognize different morphological patterns
  • Understand paradigm class variations
  • Develop pattern recognition skills

5.2 Compare Paradigm Classes

• Action: Analyze words from different paradigm classes
• Compare:
  • Deletion patterns across different word types
  • Addition patterns for similar grammatical features
  • Consistency of morphological rules

5.3 Reset and Retry

• Action: Use the "Reset" button to clear all selections and start fresh
• Purpose:
  • Practice without seeing previous answers
  • Test your understanding independently
  • Build confidence in morphological analysis

Tips for Success

Analytical Approach

• Start with the Root: Always identify the base form of the word first
• Compare Forms: Look at how the word changes across different grammatical categories
• Look for Patterns: Identify consistent morphological rules within paradigm classes
• Use the Paradigm Table: Reference the complete paradigm to understand the word's behavior

Common Patterns to Remember

• Masculine Nouns ending in -आ: Usually delete आ and add different suffixes
• Plural Forms: Often involve adding -ए or -ओं depending on case
• Oblique Case: Typically requires different suffixes than direct case
• Invariant Words: Some words (like पानी, दूध) don't change across forms

Error Prevention

• Double-check Grammatical Features: Ensure you're targeting the correct number and case
• Verify Suffix Selection: Make sure the suffix creates the intended grammatical form
• Use Context Clues: Consider the meaning and usage of the target word form
• Reference the Paradigm: Always check against the complete paradigm table

Expected Learning Outcomes

By following this procedure, you will develop:

• Systematic Analysis Skills: Ability to break down words systematically
• Pattern Recognition: Understanding of consistent morphological rules
• Grammatical Awareness: Knowledge of how grammatical features affect word forms
• Computational Thinking: Systematic approach to linguistic analysis
• Hindi Morphology Expertise: Deep understanding of Hindi word structure

This hands-on approach will help you master the Add-Delete table methodology and become proficient in Hindi morphological analysis.
