When to use it

You can use 'हाँ' to agree with someone or to confirm something. It is a very common response in both formal and informal settings. Use 'जी हाँ' when you want to show respect or politeness.

Say it out loud, get corrected

Reading it is not the same as saying it. Practice "Yes" and thousands more with an AI coach that listens.
