     Consider the sentences used here:
 
(a)
yah bacat bEnk nikaasii aadesh farm cek nahi hE.
This Savings Bank Withdrawal order form is not a cheque.
   
  These two have more or less the same structure.
   
(b)
is farm ke saath paas buk rahanaa aniwaarya he anyathaa bhugtaan praapt nahi hogaa.
Unless this form is accompanied with pass-book, payment will be refused.
   
 
The Hindi version has two clauses joined by a conditional, whereas the English sentence is only one complex sentence which means "You will not get". But the English sentence talks about refusal of payment.
   
  Abbreviations are used in Hindi alphabet as "E" for "A" or written in Devanagari script as Si.o.es. for C.O.S.
