अनुभाग
anubhāg/ə.nʊ.bʱɑːɡ/
The Hindi word for 'section' is अनुभाग (anubhāg).
अनुभाग is used to refer to a specific section within formal, administrative or technical contexts. You will find it used when describing a section of a document, a specific government department or a distinct part of a system.
Which one should you use?
While अनुभाग refers to a specific administrative or technical section, the simpler word भाग is used for a general 'part' or 'portion' of something.
How do you pronounce it?
The pronunciation is /ə.nʊ.bʱɑːɡ/. The word has 3 syllables.
Did you know?
- The Sanskrit root 'bhāga' found in अनुभाग is the same root used to describe 'fate' or 'destiny' in ancient texts, implying a 'portion' of life allotted to a person.
- In Indian government offices, the head of an अनुभाग is called a 'Section Officer', a title that remains in English even when the rest of the communication is in Hindi.
- In a modern digital context, you might see 'section' translated as अनुभाग, but if you are looking for a 'section' of a news article, a journalist would more likely use the word खंड.
Examples in context
- मेरी प्रेजेंटेशन का अनुभाग विवरण यहां मिलेगा।The section details of my presentation are available here.
- कलेक्शन के ये खंड आपको दूकान के पीछे मिलेंगे।These sections of the collection will be found behind the shop.
