- Dasvām̃ means 'tenth' in Hindi.
- It is an ordinal adjective that changes based on gender.
- Use 'dasvīm̃' for feminine nouns like class or time.
- Use 'dasvēm̃' for plural or oblique masculine nouns.
The Hindi word दसवाँ (dasvām̃) is an ordinal adjective that translates directly to the English word 'tenth'. In linguistic terms, it is used to denote the position of an object or person in a sequential order following the ninth. Unlike cardinal numbers which represent quantity (like 'ten'), ordinal numbers like dasvām̃ represent rank, position, or a specific point in a series. This word is foundational for anyone learning Hindi as it appears in daily conversations ranging from giving directions to discussing dates, school grades, and sports rankings.
- Grammatical Gender
- The word दसवाँ is masculine. It changes to दसवीं (dasvīm̃) for feminine nouns and दसवें (dasvēm̃) for masculine plural or oblique cases. This inflection is crucial for fluency.
आज मेरी शादी की दसवीं सालगिरह है। (Today is my tenth wedding anniversary.)
In the Indian context, the 'tenth' holds significant weight, particularly in the education system. The '10th Board Exams' are a major milestone in a student's life. When someone says they are in the 'tenth class', they use the feminine form dasvīm̃ because 'kaksha' (class) is a feminine noun. Beyond school, it is used in religious contexts, such as the 'Dashami' (tenth day of a lunar fortnight), which is linguistically related to the root word for ten.
- Ordinal Suffixes
- In Hindi, most ordinal numbers from five onwards are formed by adding the suffix '-vām̃' to the cardinal number. Hence, das (ten) becomes dasvām̃.
यह किताब का दसवाँ अध्याय है। (This is the tenth chapter of the book.)
Culturally, the tenth position is often seen as a completion of a cycle. In ancient Indian philosophy, there is the concept of the 'Dasam Granth' or the 'Dasam Dwar' (the tenth door). While these are specific proper nouns, the underlying numerical concept remains the same. In modern usage, you will hear it in news reports (e.g., the tenth anniversary of an event), in sports (the tenth over of a cricket match), and in general lists. Understanding its usage helps in transitioning from basic counting to describing complex sequences.
- Nasalization
- Note the 'chandrabindu' (ँ) at the end. It indicates a nasalized vowel. Pronouncing it as 'dasva' instead of 'dasvām̃' is a common beginner mistake that can sound slightly off to native speakers.
लाइन में दसवाँ व्यक्ति मेरा भाई है। (The tenth person in the line is my brother.)
Using दसवाँ (dasvām̃) correctly requires an understanding of Hindi's adjective-noun agreement rules. Since it is an adjective, it must match the gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies. This section explores the various transformations the word undergoes in practical sentence construction.
- Masculine Singular
- Used with masculine nouns like 'din' (day), 'ghanta' (hour), or 'bacha' (boy). Example: Dasvām̃ din (Tenth day).
आज इस प्रोजेक्ट का दसवाँ दिन है। (Today is the tenth day of this project.)
When the noun is feminine, the ending changes from -vām̃ to -vīm̃. This is a very common transformation. Feminine nouns include 'kaksha' (class), 'baar' (time/occurrence), and 'manzil' (floor/destination).
- Feminine Singular/Plural
- Example: Dasvīm̃ baar (Tenth time). Even if the noun is plural feminine, the adjective remains dasvīm̃.
मैं दसवीं बार यह फिल्म देख रहा हूँ। (I am watching this movie for the tenth time.)
The third form is दसवें (dasvēm̃). This is used in two specific scenarios: when the noun is masculine plural, or when the masculine singular noun is in the oblique case (followed by a postposition like ko, se, mein, ka).
- The Oblique Case
- If you say 'On the tenth day', 'day' (din) is masculine. Because of 'on' (par), dasvām̃ becomes dasvēm̃.
दसवें डिब्बे में सामान रखा है। (The luggage is kept in the tenth box.)
To use it effectively, always identify the noun first. If you are ranking something, like 'the tenth student', and the student is male, use dasvām̃ chhatra. If female, dasvīm̃ chhatra. In a list of items (masculine), use dasvām̃ number. This pattern of agreement is consistent across all Hindi ordinal numbers except for the first four (pehla, dusra, tisra, chautha).
In everyday Indian life, दसवाँ (dasvām̃) and its variations are ubiquitous. You will hear it in schools, on public transport, in the news, and during religious ceremonies. Understanding these contexts will help you recognize the word even when spoken at a fast native pace.
- Education and Schools
- The most common place to hear this is in the context of school grades. 'Dasvīm̃ kaksha' (10th grade) is a pivot point for Indian students. People often ask, 'Aapka beta kaunsi kaksha mein hai?' (Which class is your son in?), and the answer is often 'Dasvīm̃' (The 10th).
उसने दसवीं की परीक्षा में टॉप किया। (He topped the tenth-grade exams.)
In public transport, especially in cities like Delhi or Mumbai with extensive metro or train networks, you will hear announcements regarding the tenth station or the tenth coach. 'Dasvēm̃ coach mein mahilayen hain' (There are women in the tenth coach). Note the use of dasvēm̃ here because of the preposition 'mein'.
- Sports Commentary
- During a cricket match, the commentator will frequently say, 'Dasvām̃ over chal raha hai' (The tenth over is going on). Since 'over' is treated as masculine in Hindi, dasvām̃ is used.
भारत का दसवाँ विकेट गिर गया है। (India's tenth wicket has fallen.)
In the news and business, you'll hear it regarding anniversaries or rankings. 'Bharat duniya ki dasvīm̃ sabse badi arthvyavastha thi' (India was the tenth largest economy in the world). Here, 'arthvyavastha' (economy) is feminine, so dasvīm̃ is used.
यह हमारी कंपनी का दसवाँ स्थापना दिवस है। (This is our company's tenth foundation day.)
Finally, in shopping or markets, when referring to the tenth item in a row or a stack: 'Dasvām̃ suit dikhaiye' (Show me the tenth suit). Because 'suit' is masculine, the speaker uses the masculine form. Being alert to these contexts will make your comprehension much more robust.
Even though 'dasvām̃' seems straightforward, English speakers often stumble on specific Hindi grammatical nuances. The most frequent errors involve gender agreement, the oblique case, and pronunciation. Let's break these down to ensure you sound more like a native speaker.
- Mistake 1: Ignoring Gender Agreement
- Many learners use 'dasvām̃' for everything. They might say 'dasvām̃ kaksha' instead of the correct 'dasvīm̃ kaksha'. Remember: Hindi adjectives are like chameleons; they must change color to match the noun.
Wrong: दसवाँ बार (Dasvām̃ baar)
Right: दसवीं बार (Dasvīm̃ baar)
The second most common error is the failure to use the oblique form dasvēm̃. In English, 'tenth' stays 'tenth' whether you say 'the tenth house' or 'in the tenth house'. In Hindi, the presence of 'in' (mein) forces the adjective to change from dasvām̃ to dasvēm̃.
- Mistake 2: Missing the Oblique Case
- Learners often say 'dasvām̃ kamre mein' (in the tenth room). The correct form is 'dasvēm̃ kamre mein'. This is a subtle but vital distinction for A2-B1 level learners.
Wrong: दसवाँ साल में...
Right: दसवें साल में... (In the tenth year...)
Pronunciation is the third hurdle. The 'v' in Hindi is often a cross between English 'v' and 'w'. Also, the nasalization at the end (indicated by the dot or chandrabindu) is often ignored. If you say 'dasva' with a hard 'a', it sounds incomplete. It should be a soft, nasalized 'ām̃'.
Lastly, learners sometimes confuse 'Dasvīm̃' (10th) with 'Dashami' (10th day of the lunar month). While related, 'Dashami' is a specific noun used in the Hindu calendar, whereas 'Dasvīm̃' is a general adjective. Using 'Dashami' to mean 'tenth grade' would be incorrect and confusing.
- Mistake 3: Confusing Cardinal and Ordinal
- Saying 'Mere paas dasvām̃ rupaye hain' implies 'I have the tenth rupee' (a specific coin). To say 'I have ten rupees', use 'Mere paas das rupaye hain'.
While दसवाँ (dasvām̃) is the standard word for 'tenth', there are several related terms and synonyms that you might encounter depending on the context—whether it's formal, religious, or mathematical.
- दस (Das) vs दसवाँ (Dasvām̃)
- Das is the cardinal number '10'. Dasvām̃ is the ordinal '10th'. Use 'das' for quantity and 'dasvām̃' for order.
- दशम (Dasham)
- This is the Sanskrit-derived (Tatsam) version of 'tenth'. You will find this in very formal Hindi, literature, or religious texts (e.g., 'Dasham Granth'). It is rarely used in daily conversation.
- दशमी (Dashami)
- A feminine noun referring specifically to the tenth day of the lunar fortnight in the Hindu calendar. For example, 'Vijayadashami' (Dussehra).
तुलना:
1. यह दसवाँ हिस्सा है। (This is the tenth part/portion.)
2. यह दशम अध्याय है। (This is the tenth chapter - Formal/Sanskritized.)
In a mathematical or fractional context, if you want to say 'one-tenth', you can say 'dasvām̃ hissa'. However, in decimal systems, you might hear 'dashamlav' (decimal), which comes from the same root. Understanding these connections helps build a mental map of the language.
- दहाई (Dahai)
- This means a 'decade' or 'tens place' in mathematics. While not a direct synonym for 'tenth', it belongs to the same word family and is used when talking about groups of ten.
When comparing dasvām̃ with antim (last), it's important to note that 'dasvām̃' is specific, whereas 'antim' is relative. If there are only ten items, the dasvām̃ is also the antim. In lists, you will often see dasvām̃ paired with nauvām̃ (ninth) and gyarahvām̃ (eleventh).
How Formal Is It?
재미있는 사실
Almost all Hindi ordinal numbers from five onwards end in '-vām̃', making it one of the most consistent patterns in Hindi grammar compared to the irregular first four numbers.
발음 가이드
- Pronouncing it as 'Das-va' without the nasalization.
- Using a hard English 'd' (alveolar) instead of the Hindi dental 'd'.
- Making the 'v' sound too much like an English 'w' or a hard 'v'.
- Shortening the final vowel.
- Confusing it with 'Das-vaan' (with a hard 'n' sound).
난이도
Easy to read if you know the number 'das' and the '-vām̃' suffix.
Requires correct placement of the chandrabindu (nasalization).
Nasalization and gender agreement can be tricky for beginners.
Distinguishable, but can be confused with cardinal 'das' in fast speech.

팁
Check the Noun
Always look at the noun following 'dasvām̃'. If it's feminine like 'mulaqat' or 'kitab', switch to 'dasvīm̃' immediately.
Nasalize It
The 'chandrabindu' is not just for decoration. Ensure you nasalize the final vowel to sound authentic.
School Talk
If you are in India and someone mentions 'Dasvīm̃', they are almost certainly talking about the 10th-grade board exams.
Suffix Pattern
Learn the '-vām̃' suffix. It works for 5th (pānchvām̃), 6th (chhaṭhvām̃), 7th (sātvām̃), etc.
Watch for Postpositions
If you see 'ko', 'se', or 'mein', change 'dasvām̃' to 'dasvēm̃' for masculine nouns.
Religious Dates
Recognize 'Dashami' as the 10th day of the lunar cycle. It's linguistically related to 'dasvām̃'.
Spelling
The spelling is द (da) + स (sa) + वाँ (vām̃). Don't forget the dot!
Confidence
Ordinal numbers are key for giving directions. 'Dasvēm̃ mod se mudna' (Turn at the tenth turn).
Sports
Listen to cricket commentary to hear 'dasvām̃ over' or 'dasvām̃ wicket' frequently.
Association
Associate 'Dasvām̃' with a 'Van' (the vehicle) to remember the suffix.
암기하기
기억법
Think of 'Das' (10) and add 'Vaan' (like a van carrying the 10th person). Das-Vaan = Tenth.

어원
Derived from the Sanskrit word 'Dashama' (दशम), meaning tenth. The Hindi suffix '-vām̃' evolved from the Middle Indo-Aryan '-ama' and '-vama' suffixes used to form ordinals.
원래 의미: Coming after the ninth position in a decimal system.
Indo-Aryan -> Sanskrit -> Prakrit -> Apabhramsha -> Old Hindi -> Modern Hindi.문화적 맥락
Be careful when using 'Dasvi' in the context of mourning; ensure the context is appropriate as it refers to funeral rites.
In English, 'tenth' is simple. In Hindi, the cultural weight of '10th grade' (Dasvīm̃) is much higher than '10th grade' in the US or UK.
