Hindi Letter ङ (nga) Worksheet
ङ is the fifth vyanjan of the Hindi varnamala and makes a soft nasal "nga" sound, like the "ng" in "sing." It is a rare letter that mostly appears joined inside words, so this worksheet gives your child gentle practice tracing its special shape.
We link ङ to the word वाङ्मय (vaangmay), meaning literature, where the ङ sound can be heard. Made for ages 2 to 7, these activities build letter recognition, sound awareness and careful tracing. Even this uncommon letter becomes friendly when your little one traces it with care and a smile.
