How to Say "Brinjal" in Hindi

बैंगन

baiṅgan/bɛːŋ.ɡən/

The English phrase "brinjal" is translated into Hindi as बैंगन (baiṅgan).

बैंगन refers to the purple, fleshy vegetable also known as an eggplant.

How do you pronounce it?

The pronunciation is /bɛːŋ.ɡən/. The word has two syllables: baiṅgan.

The Hindi word बैंगन shares a common linguistic ancestor with the French word 'aubergine'.
In Indian cooking, बैंगन is often roasted whole in an open flame to make 'baingan bharta', where the smoky skin is the key to the flavor.
In many parts of India, if you ask for बैंगन, you might receive a green variety instead of the iconic purple one.
