Hi Famina!
Guess what? You can absolutely follow your passion for both Hindi and science at the same time! Studying Hindi can pave the way for exciting collaborations and research in India, where the science scene is booming. Plus, speaking more than one language is a huge bonus in the world of science. It can help you connect and work with researchers from all corners of the globe.
To kickstart your journey to becoming a scientist, you'll want to shine in your science and math classes at school. This will give you a solid base for further studies in science. Don't forget to join in on science-related activities outside of class too, like science fairs, research projects, or internships at science centers.
Once you're done with school, you can go for a bachelor's degree in a science field that catches your interest, like biology, chemistry, physics, or environmental science. While you're at it, you can also learn Hindi through language classes or cultural exchange programs.
To become a full-fledged scientist, you'll usually need to do graduate studies. Going for a master's or doctoral degree in your chosen science field will give you deeper knowledge and research opportunities. During this time, you can keep nurturing your Hindi skills through language immersion programs, studying in India, or connecting with Indian science communities.
As you move forward in your science career, being fluent in Hindi can open up chances for you to work on research projects with others, attend international conferences, and even work in India's science centers.
Remember, being a scientist takes commitment, the ability to think critically, and a love for discovery. By mixing your interest in Hindi with your science career, you can develop a unique and useful set of skills that will make you stand out in the global science world.
For more information, check out these top 3 authoritative science publications:

Science Magazine - sciencemag.org
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) - pnas.org
May you be showered with blessings!
James.

Like Natasha said above, learning Hindi doesn't mean you can't become a scientist. If you are a high school student and is deciding between a AP/IB/honors science class and a Hindi class, I think you should go ahead and focus your efforts on Hindi first -language takes a long time to master and its good to start before. If you are in college, you can go to the language department and learn Hindi on top of your major in whatever science-related. In fact, learning another language will help you as a scientist, because that means you can collaborate with that many more people.

I agree -- I don't think it has to be one or the other. You can learn Hindi and become a scientist. Depending on the school you attend, you may be able to take elective classes in a foreign language (Hindi) while you're studying for your degree. Alternatively, you can learn Hindi on your own online or through apps.

I am glad that you are interested in Hindi and you can also become a scientist. not sure what your question is. I wish you the best in both your learning choices
I don't think there is any barrier for learning Hindi or becoming a scientist. There is an article for Indian scientist teaching Alexa to speak Hindi. I wish you all the best for your future.

Hi Famina, your question is rather vague and hard to answer based on how you interpret it.
If you are asking how you could make a career bridging between Hindi and Scientist and that actually depends on what you make out of it. Your love for Hindi may not seem to have a direct tie to your success as a scientist, but I can assure you the benefits of learning another language (and its culture because you can't learn well without the other) is far more than you could measure. Therefore, go and learn it if it matters to you. Note that if you say yes to one, you are saying no to others. And spend your time/money/energy wisely for they do not come again. There's only one May 15,2020, only one you, and only 7 years of teenage years. Most of the decisions you make now will affect your future because 1) our brain stops developing by age of 25 2) you make most decisions before 30 (going to college/military/workforce, getting married, buying a car or house, having a child, exploring India) and 3) deciding what life you want to live. And yes, you can't know what you don't know and the best way to bridge that gap is through learning (ask around which you are doing, reading books, research online), or experience it yourself. I know I just made it seem so serious and I am not directly answering your question or more than you ask for and probably giving you anxiety (and I am sorry if I did). So what I say next should help a little. A bit cliche as this is like life, it is what you make out of it and is what you choose to do with it. At least you're thinking now after reading this or later when it's time.
I sense that you are rather confused because you didn't specify what kind of scientists. To help you better understand, you probably interested in the field of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). Scientists develop theories to which can't be proven false (reject or fail to reject hypothesis) therefore we hold it as valid and true, Technicians are those who use the technologies to provide a service. Engineering is those who utilize the theories, technology, and mathematics (fundamentals or foundation to which Scientists use to prove their theories) to create, design, build, analyze, improve the quality of life. I here ask you to not focus on what you want to do because you can do many things, but whether who do you want to become. To serve with a noble cause of leaving the world in a better place than it is before, to help those who struggle the same thing you did, to be a better self than you were yesterday, to live up to your expectations, or to listen to your heart and pursue whatever it is that you desire. It's up to you.
Okay, enough with being theoretical. Here is what you can do: 1) Contact Hindi Scientist you have in mind or researched and ask them questions 2) Continue your study and answer who do you want to become and why 3) and go for it.
Let me know if this is helpful, or any more questions you have.
Sincerely,
-Wei
