مہمان
The English word "mehman" is translated into Urdu as مہمان.
The word مہمان is used to refer to any visitor or guest, whether they are staying overnight or just visiting for a short time.
Did you know?
- In many Urdu-speaking households, a mehman is often treated with more honor than a family member, sometimes even being served the best portions of food automatically.
- In Urdu culture, the concept of mehman is tied to the belief that a guest is a blessing from God, often phrased as mehman khuda ki rehmat hota hai.
- The word is gender-neutral in its spelling and pronunciation, unlike many other Urdu nouns that change based on whether the guest is male or female.
Examples in context
- آکر بیٹھیں، آپ میرے مہمان ہیں۔Please have a seat, you are my guest.
- آج ہمارے گھر مہمان آئیں گے۔Aaj hamare ghar mehman aayenge.Guests will come to our house today.
- مہمانوں کے لیے چائے تیار ہے۔Mehmanon ke liye chai taiyar hai.The tea is ready for the guests.
- وہ ایک اچھے مہمان ہیں۔Woh ek ache mehman hain.He is a good guest.
