Marathi Letter आ (aa) Worksheet
- Ages 3–7
- Beginner friendly
- Free printable PDF
- A4 · print at home
आ is the second swar in Marathi, and it stretches the "a" sound into a longer "aa," like in "father." This worksheet invites your child to trace आ, noticing the extra little line that makes it different from अ.
We chose the warm word आई, meaning mother, because it is often one of the very first words a child speaks. Tracing आ while saying "aai" creates a sweet, loving memory around learning. Built for ages 2 to 7, the worksheet keeps strokes simple and large, so beginners can enjoy each attempt without feeling rushed or worried about mistakes.
Free for home and classroom use. The preview shows a sample of the printable worksheet.
