المعنى
To experience profound emotional distress or trauma.
خلفية ثقافية
Hindi news channels frequently use 'गहरा सदमा' in headlines to sensationalize or emphasize the tragedy of an event, especially involving celebrities. When visiting someone who has lost a family member, saying 'हमें यह सुनकर गहरा सदमा लगा' is a standard way to show empathy. In Hindi literature, 'sadma' is often personified as an uninvited guest that breaks into the house of the heart. While 'trauma' is becoming common in urban areas, 'sadma' remains the preferred word for the general public to describe PTSD-like symptoms.
Avoid Triviality
Using this for small things makes you sound like you are mocking real tragedy.
Use with 'Ko'
Always remember the 'ko' postposition for the person. 'Mujhe', 'Usse', 'Ram ko'.
