How do you pronounce "तुरंत" in Hindi?

tu-RUNT — dental t at both ends, two short vowels, and one tap in the middle.

तुरंत /t̪ʊ.ɾənt̪/

turant

Neither vowel is long, so the word is light throughout and heavy only by position in that final cluster. It should sound genuinely brisk — appropriately, given that it means "immediately."

Sound it out

tu Dental त with a short lax उ, like the vowel of "put" but briefer. No aspiration on the t.

rant Touch and release for the r, then a bare schwa, then a nasal and a stop that share one tongue position on the teeth.

"Maiṁ turant aa rahaa hooṁ" follows the adverb with the bare stem aa and the progressive rahaa hooṁ. Because turant ends in a dental त and aa begins with a long open vowel, the junction is a clean stop-to-vowel transition with no glide.

Where English speakers slip

The two t sounds both come out alveolar and the first one comes out aspirated, so the word ends up sounding like an English "terrant." Move both to the teeth and keep them dry. The medial tap is the third fix — one contact, not a rhotic hum.
