Nouns
A noun in Awadhi is either masculine or feminine irrespective of the fact whether it denotes an animate or inanimate object. The nouns generally have two forms: short and long. The long nouns are formed by adding either wā or iyā suffix to the short nouns. For example: “nadῑ नदी " (short); nadiyā नदिया ” (long). The long forms are occasionally employed to:


 * 1) indicate smallness.
 * 2) Example: unripe mangoes are referred as amiyā अमिया (formed by elongating the word ām आम ); small bridges may be referred as puliyā पुलिया (formed by elongating the word pul पुल )
 * 3) refer to younger or inferiors.
 * 4) Example: daughter-in-law bahū बहु is referred as bahuriyā बहुरिया ; a barber nāū नाऊ is referred as na.uā नउआ . Example: horse = ghoṛā घोड़ा, the horse = ghoṛvā घोड़वा.

A more respectful long form ­ū also exists in Awadhi—like sēr→ sēraū; būṛh→ buṛhaū. Hello

The plurals are formed by suffixing 'an' as opposed to Hindustani 'ō̃'. Example: kān कान → kānan कानन as opposed to kānō̃ कानों of Standard-Hindi.

Modern India
The most significant contributions to the Awadhi literature in the modern period have come from writers like Ramai Kaka, Balbhadra Prasad Dikshit also known as ‘Padhees’, Bharatendu Mishra and Vanshidhar Shukla.

‘Krishnayan’ (1942 C.E.) is a major Awadhi epic-poem that Dwarka Prasad Mishra wrote in imprisonment during the Freedom Movement of India.

Taj Mahal
Files:  (flowers in marble),   Base, dome and minaret,  Interior view of the vaulted dome over the tombs of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz.

The most spectacular feature is the marble dome that surmounts the tomb. The dome is nearly 35 metres (115 ft) high which is close in measurement to the length of the base, and accentuated by the cylindrical "drum" it sits on which is approximately 7 metres (23 ft) high. Because of its shape, the dome is often called an onion dome or amrud (guava dome). The top is decorated with a lotus design which also serves to accentuate its height. The shape of the dome is emphasised by four smaller domed chattris (kiosks) placed at its corners, which replicate the onion shape of the main dome. The dome is slightly asymmetrical. Their columned bases open through the roof of the tomb and provide light to the interior. Tall decorative spires (guldastas) extend from edges of base walls, and provide visual emphasis to the height of the dome. The lotus motif is repeated on both the chattris and guldastas. The dome and chattris are topped by a gilded finial which mixes traditional Persian and Hindustani decorative elements.

The main finial was originally made of gold but was replaced by a copy made of gilded bronze in the early 19th century. This feature provides a clear example of integration of traditional Persian and Hindu decorative elements. The finial is topped by a moon, a typical Islamic motif whose horns point heavenward.
