المعنى
To think carefully about a specific idea or aspect.
خلفية ثقافية
Saying 'I will consider it' is often a polite way to say 'No' or 'Not right now' without being confrontational. It maintains harmony (Lihaz). Using 'Vichaar' instead of 'Sochna' immediately marks you as an educated person (shishit). It is preferred in all written essays. Official press releases in India almost always use 'vichaaraadheen' (under consideration) to describe pending policies. When elders say they are 'considering' something, it implies a period of silence is expected from the younger generation while the decision is made.
The 'Par' Rule
Always remember the postposition 'par'. Without it, the phrase falls apart grammatically.
Polite Refusal
If you want to say 'no' to a salesperson in India politely, say 'मैं इस पर विचार करके बताऊंगा' (I'll think and let you know). They will usually stop pushing.

Don't Overuse
Using it with friends for small things like 'which movie to watch' makes you sound like a politician. Stick to 'sochna' there.

No, 'vichaar dena' would mean 'to give an opinion'. To consider is always 'vichaar karna'.
'Vichaar' is more formal/Sanskritized. 'Khayaal' is Urdu-origin and often used for 'care' or 'opinion' (e.g., 'Mera khayaal hai' - I think/In my opinion).
Use 'punarvichaar' (पुनर्विचार). Example: 'मैं अपने फैसले पर पुनर्विचार कर रहा हूँ।'
Yes, but it creates a serious or instructional tone. 'तुम इस बात पर विचार करो' sounds like a piece of heavy advice.
No, use 'sochna' or 'yaad karna'. 'Vichaar karna' is for ideas, points, or matters.
Close, but 'gaur karna' is more like 'to note' or 'to pay attention to a detail'. 'Vichaar karna' is the whole process of evaluation.
The opposite would be 'andekha karna' (to ignore) or 'vichaar na karna'.
In very high literature, yes (vichaarna), but in 99% of modern Hindi, you must use 'vichaar karna'.
It is neutral. It only promises the *process* of thinking, not the result.
