ऋ is the seventh swar of the Hindi varnamala and makes a special "ri" sound, a soft blend of "r" and "i." It is a rarer vowel, so this worksheet gives your child plenty of gentle practice tracing its unique shape on clear dotted lines.
We connect ऋ to the word ऋषि (rishi), meaning sage or wise teacher, a meaningful word in Indian culture. Made for ages 2 to 7, these activities build letter recognition, careful tracing and sound awareness. With each thoughtful stroke, your child discovers another lovely part of the Hindi alphabet.
