The 'Mārṇe' Rule
Whenever an action feels energetic or sudden in Marathi, try using 'mārṇe' instead of 'karṇe.' It will make you sound much more native.
Past Tense Trap
Remember: 'त्याने उडी मारली' (She/He jumped). The 'li' ending is because 'uḍī' is feminine. Don't let the subject's gender confuse you!
