How to say I miss you in Hindi

There is no Hindi verb for missing someone. The language says something better: your memory keeps coming to me. Once you see the shape of that sentence, a whole family of feeling words opens up with it.

The sentence

मुझे तुम्हारी याद आती है
mujhe tumhaaree yaad aatee hai
I miss you (to someone close, tum)
मुझे आपकी याद आती है
mujhe aapkee yaad aatee hai
I miss you (respectful, aap)

Word by word: मुझे is to me, तुम्हारी is your, याद is memory, आती है is comes. Your memory comes to me.

Why it is built that way

Hindi puts feelings at you, not from you. The person feeling it gets marked with को or its short forms like मुझे, and the thing felt does the work in the verb. याद is feminine, so the verb is आती है and stays that way no matter who is speaking. A man and a woman say this sentence identically.

मुझे भूख लगी है
mujhe bhookh lagee hai
I am hungry (hunger has attached itself to me)
मुझे हिंदी आती है
mujhe hindee aatee hai
I know Hindi (Hindi comes to me)

Missing someone else

मुझे घर की याद आती है
mujhe ghar kee yaad aatee hai
I miss home
उसे अपने परिवार की याद आती है
use apne parivaar kee yaad aatee hai
She misses her family

The warmer things people say instead

In practice, families say the feeling sideways. These land harder than a direct translation, and they are easier to say on a video call without sounding rehearsed.

कब आ रहे हो?
kab aa rahe ho?
When are you coming? (asked of a man, tum)
बहुत दिन हो गए
bahut din ho gae
It has been too many days
आपसे बात करके अच्छा लगा
aapse baat karke achchhaa lagaa
It was good to talk to you

One small thing to get right

तुम्हारी and आपकी both end in -ee here because याद is feminine. If you swap in a masculine noun the ending changes with it. That agreement is the single most useful habit to build early, and it is the one that makes a sentence sound like a person rather than an app.
