Baat karna chahta hoon

The context is not very clear. There maybe many variation. I am trying to give some of them.

1) I want to talk to you. [Main aapse (tumse) baat karna chahta (chahti) hoon.] Comment: Aapse (respectfully 'to you', Tumse (friendly 'to you'); chahta/chahti (want, speaker is male or female respectively)

2) want to talk? [Baat karna chahte hain? OR Baat karna chahte ho?]. Former with respect, second friendly.

baat karna chaahta hooN

want to talk = baat karna chaahta hooN

'chaahta' will be replaced by word 'chaahti' for female speaker and 'N' in 'hooN' is nasal N. there is no mention of "you" in the original sentence so the translated sentence also does not reflect that, and it is understood that the speaker wants to talk to the person adressed.

what is your name? = tumhara naam kya hai?

for formal word 'tumhara' will be replaced by 'aapka'

hope that helps.
