Transliteration • "aa, ii, uu" are long vowels • "a, i, u" are short vowels • "a" (the shwa-sound) (unlike "aa") is pronounced
like the last syllable in "mother" • "â, ê, î, û" are nasals • "e" is pronounced like "e" in French "chez" or
German "geht" • "c" is pronounced like "ch" in church. • "ch" is an aspirated "c" (sometimes transliterated
by others as "chh"; like "church" plus aspiration). • "T" and "R" are retroflex sounds. • "t" is dental, "r" is alveolar • "th" is aspirated "t", "Th" is aspirated "T"

How to use this workbook Study the matrix so that you see how the numerals are connected with each other horizontally and vertically. Then study the chart for rows and the chart for columns so that you recognise the regularity in each group of numerals. These regularities, such as they are, will be important memory aids.
Initial learning / Initial mastery Practise Exercise 1 to 37 using the "simplified technique" of DYNAMIC LANGUAGE LEARNING. This simplified version is not the most effective but it is the easiest to learn and easiest to explain. The professional version will be published on the website within a month or two. We will call the numbers "questions" and the numerals "answers". Fold an A5 sheet of paper so that it is no longer transparent. Cover Exercise 1 at the very top. The open end of the folded paper must point upwards. Slowly slide down the folded paper, until the first question (but not the answer) becomes visible. Guess (or remember) the answer and write your best bet on
Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook 11 the folded paper. Slide the paper down to reveal the model answer. If your answer was right, move down to the next item (the next question). If your answer was wrong, cross out the wrong letters or the whole wrong word on your folded paper and copy the correct answer, concentrating on your mistake and trying to learn from it. Do not cheat. Be strict with yourself. Even if one letter is wrong, that answer counts as wrong by the rules of this game (DYNAMIC LANGUAGE LEARNING). If the correct answer contained a "T" (retroflex sound) and you wrote a "t", that counts as a mistake. Before starting the exercise again, fold the paper back so that your previous answers are no longer visible. Move the paper to the very top again and cover the whole exercise. Make sure you cannot see any of the items while you are moving the paper from the bottom of the exercise to the top of the exercise. In DYLL you never look at the answer, except immediately after having made a written guess and having committed yourself. If you do not follow that rule, you defeat the system, and its promises are no longer valid for you. It is essential that you WRITE your answers and corrections. Just saying them or doing them mentally
12 Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook is not effective. If you want to be successful, follow the instructions to the letter. Tackle one item after another until you reach the end of this exercise. If you managed to get through it without a single mistake, then, for this exercise, you have reached the first landing of learning, "Initial Mastery". Initial mastery does not mean that you will remember the numbers tomorrow or next week, it just means that you have made a start. You are in first gear, and the engine might stall again any minute, unless you do something to prevent it. In other words, you are in a helicopter. If you do not keep the propeller running, you will crash. In language learning you keep the propeller running by make the prescribed revisions. Proof of mastery on any one day (be it in initial learning or revision) is "10 items correct in succession". Continue doing the whole exercise from beginning to end until you have "mastered" it, exactly as defined.
The DYLL Retention algorithm To ensure retention and to do it efficiently and without the frustration of ever continuing mistakes, you have
Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook 13 to apply DYNAMIC LANGUAGE LEARNING's Retention algorithm. Here is a simplified version of it. Revise this exercise (and each exercise) at exactly specified intervals, as follows: • R1 (revision 1): after 15 minutes • R2 after 1 hour • R3 in the evening of the same day, immediately
before going to bed • R4 first thing the following day (each revision will
take only a minute or so, since you will make hardly any mistakes IF YOU FOLLOW THIS REVISION SCHEDULE).
• R5 after 2 days (always counting from last revision)
• R6 after 4 days • R7 after 1 week • R8 after 2 weeks • R9 after 1 month • R10 after 2 months • R11 after 4 months
Here endeth the chain of revisions. You will need a special diary to keep track of your revisions. This diary will turn out to be the best investment you have ever made.
14 Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook On the appropriate date write the number of the exercise and the level of revision (R1, R2, ...). For example, if on 14 March 2011 revision R9 of Exercise 3 is due, write into your diary: "Ex3(R9+1m)". This means that this is Revision 9, and the next revision must be entered 1 month later. Writing down the revision level and the distance of the next revision helps you to keep track when writing the entries into your diary. So the entries in brackets after the exercise numbers will always be one of the following: (R4+1d) (R5+2d) (R6+4d) (R7+1w)
(R8+2w) (R9+1m) (R10+2m) (R11+4m)
Every revision follows exactly the same procedure: You do every item from top to bottom, in writing, until you have done 10 items in succession without the smallest mistake.
Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook 15
Priorities If you are short of time, the following rules apply: 1 Revision is more important than learning new
material. If you skip revisions in order to learn new material, you will remember neither the old nor the new material. You will always be on slippery ground. So you might as well learn less (the old material), but actually know it and be able to use it. Most people, when they say they "know" something, mean that they have heard it once, not that they can reproduce, explain or perform it.
2 The early revisions (R1, R2, R3 etc) are much more time-sensitive than the later revisions. Therefore if you delay R1 by 15 minutes (= 100%) you will make noticeably more mistakes (i.e. have forgotten more) than you will if you revise on time.
By contrast, a longer delay, e.g. two days, at R7 or R10 has less serious consequences. In the case of R7 a two-day delay is 29%, and in the case of R10 a two-day delay is 3%, whereas in case of R1 a delay of 15 minutes is a 100% delay. The seriousness (in terms of forgetting) is equivalent to these percentages. A higher percentage of delay means a higher percentage in forgetting. Therefore, if you have to postpone revisions because of shortage of time, delay the Revisions with high R-
16 Klaus Bung: Hindi-Urdu Numerals Workbook numbers (R11, R10, etc) rather than those with low R-numbers. If you follow these instructions to the letter, your retention rate will be extremely high and you will make hardly any mistakes. Revision times will therefore be very short. It all depends on the timing. A 100% delay does more harm than a 30% delay. Good luck, or rather successful and happy working! You can turn luck into your slave. Luck will do your bidding if you really want to. You just try!

Gottes ist der Orient! Gottes ist der Okzident! Nord- und südliches Gelände Ruht im Frieden seiner Hände.
To God belongs the Orient. To God belongs the Occident. The lands of the north and of the south Rest in the peace of his hands.
29 Al-Muqsit
ER, der einzige Gerechte, Will für jedermann das Rechte. Sei von SEINEN hundert Namen Dieser hochgelobet! Amen.
HE, the only one that is just, Wants what is right for everyone. May, of HIS one hundred names, This one especially be praised.
