الشرح बेसब्री in your Level:

At the A1 level, you can think of 'Besabri' as a way to say you are waiting 'very much' for something. Beginners usually learn the word 'intezaar' (waiting) first. 'Besabri' adds a layer of feeling to that wait. You might use it in simple sentences like 'I am waiting with besabri' to show you are excited about a party or a gift. It's important to know it's a feminine word, so we say 'Meri besabri.' You don't need to know all the poetic uses yet, just that it means 'I can't wait!'

For A2 learners, 'Besabri' becomes useful for describing your feelings or the feelings of others. You start using the phrase 'besabri se' (impatiently) as an adverb. For example, 'Bacche besabri se khel ka intezaar kar rahe hain' (Children are waiting for the game with impatience). You should also learn the negative side: that being too 'besabr' (impatient) can lead to mistakes. At this level, you can distinguish between 'sabr' (patience) and 'besabri' (impatience) as opposite concepts.

At the B1 level, you should be able to use 'Besabri' in various contexts—social, personal, and professional. You understand that it’s not just about 'waiting' but about a state of mind. You can use it to describe public sentiment (e.g., 'The public is waiting with besabri for the results'). You also begin to see the difference between 'besabri' (the feeling) and 'jaldbaazi' (the action of rushing). You can construct more complex sentences like 'Despite my besabri, I stayed quiet.'

B2 learners should appreciate the emotional and cultural nuances of 'Besabri.' You understand its role in literature and media. You can use it to express subtle impatience in formal settings or intense longing in informal ones. You are comfortable with related idioms and can use the word to describe abstract concepts, like the 'besabri of the soul' or 'political impatience.' Your grammar is precise, correctly using 'se,' 'mein,' or 'par' depending on the verb that follows.

At C1, you use 'Besabri' like a native speaker, recognizing its Persian roots and how it contrasts with Sanskrit terms like 'Aaturta.' You can analyze song lyrics or poetry that use 'besabri' to create a mood. You know when to use 'besabri' versus 'bechaini' or 'iztiraab' (a more literary word for restlessness). You can use the word in sophisticated arguments about human psychology or cultural values regarding time and patience in the modern world.

As a C2 learner, you have mastered the 'soul' of the word. You can use 'Besabri' in creative writing, mimicking classical styles or modern colloquialisms perfectly. You understand its historical weight and how the concept of 'Sabr' (and its lack) defines much of South Asian philosophy and art. You can pun with the word, use it ironically, or weave it into complex narratives where the 'besabri' of a character is a key plot driver. You are indistinguishable from a highly educated native speaker in your usage.

बेसब्री في 30 ثانية

Besabri is the Hindi word for impatience or eagerness.
It is a feminine noun derived from Persian roots.
Commonly used as 'besabri se' to mean 'impatiently'.
Can describe both positive anticipation and negative irritation.

The Hindi word बेसब्री (Besabri) is a deeply evocative noun that captures a specific state of human emotion: the inability to wait, or a restless, burning eagerness. Derived from the Persian root 'Sabr' (patience) with the privative prefix 'Be-' (without), it literally translates to 'without-patience.' However, in the linguistic landscape of Hindi and Urdu, it carries more weight than the simple English word 'impatience.' It often describes a heart-pounding anticipation for something positive, like seeing a loved one after years, or a frantic restlessness when waiting for news. While 'impatience' in English can sometimes sound like a minor character flaw, Besabri is frequently romanticized in poetry and music to describe the agony and ecstasy of waiting.

Emotional Resonance: Unlike 'jaldbaazi' (haste/hurry), which refers to physical speed or rushing through a task, Besabri is an internal state. It is the feeling in your chest when the clock seems to stop moving. In a cultural context, South Asians often value 'Sabr' (patience/fortitude) as a virtue, making 'Besabri' a significant state of being that highlights one's lack of control over their desires or circumstances.
Grammatical Gender: It is a feminine noun. Therefore, you would say 'Meri besabri' (My impatience) rather than 'Mera besabri.' Adjectives modifying it must also be feminine, such as 'Badi besabri' (Great impatience).

वह बेसब्री से अपनी चिट्ठी का इंतज़ार कर रहा था। (He was waiting for his letter with great impatience.)

- A classic example of the word used in a narrative context.

In modern daily life, you might use this word when talking about technology—like waiting for a slow website to load—or when discussing life milestones. It is incredibly common in Bollywood lyrics, often paired with 'intezaar' (wait). When someone says 'Besabri badh rahi hai,' they mean their restlessness is growing, perhaps because a deadline is approaching or a secret is about to be revealed. It is a word that bridges the gap between everyday annoyance and profound existential longing.

बच्चों में खिलौनों को लेकर बहुत बेसब्री होती है। (Children have a lot of impatience regarding toys.)

Positive vs. Negative: Context determines the flavor. If you are waiting for a wedding, 'besabri' is sweet anticipation. If you are waiting for a late bus, it is frustrating irritation.

तुम्हारी इस बेसब्री की वजह से काम बिगड़ सकता है। (Because of this impatience of yours, the work might get spoiled.)

Using बेसब्री correctly requires understanding its role as an abstract noun. In English, we often use the adjective 'impatient' (e.g., 'I am impatient'). In Hindi, while the adjective 'besabr' exists, it is far more common to use the noun 'besabri' in combination with verbs like 'dikhaana' (to show) or as part of an adverbial phrase 'besabri se' (with impatience). This section will guide you through the syntactic structures that make your Hindi sound natural and fluent.

The 'Se' Construction: This is the most frequent usage. [Subject] + [Object] + बेसब्री से + [Verb]. Example: 'Main besabri se tumhara intezaar kar raha hoon' (I am waiting for you impatiently/with eagerness).
The 'Dikhaana' Construction: Used to describe someone exhibiting impatience. [Subject] + बेसब्री + 'mat dikhao' (Don't show impatience). This is often used as a command or advice.

इंटरव्यू के नतीजों के लिए इतनी बेसब्री ठीक नहीं है। (So much impatience for the interview results is not good.)

When constructing sentences, remember that 'besabri' can be modified by intensity markers like 'bahut' (much), 'itni' (so much), or 'be-intehaan' (limitless). If you want to say someone is 'extremely impatient,' you would say 'unmein bahut besabri hai' (there is much impatience in them). Note the use of the locative 'mein' (in) here, which is a common way to attribute qualities to people in Hindi.

फिल्म शुरू होने में अभी वक्त है, अपनी बेसब्री पर काबू रखो। (There is still time for the film to start, keep your impatience under control.)

Formal vs. Informal: In formal writing (like news or literature), 'besabri' is often replaced by the Sanskrit-derived 'aatutrta' (आतुरता). However, 'besabri' remains the king of spoken conversation and emotional expression.

जनता नए कानून का बेसब्री से इंतज़ार कर रही है। (The public is waiting for the new law with impatience/eagerness.)

To truly master बेसब्री, you must hear it in the wild. This word is a staple of Indian pop culture, particularly in the realm of romance and high-stakes drama. Whether it's a protagonist waiting for a phone call or a villain losing their cool, 'besabri' provides the emotional texture that 'impatience' often lacks in English dubbing.

Bollywood & Music: If you listen to a romantic Hindi playlist, you will hear 'besabri' every ten minutes. It’s used to describe the 'restless heart' (beqaraar dil) that cannot wait to meet the beloved. Songs like 'Besabriyaan' from the movie M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story highlight the eagerness of a young dreamer to achieve his goals. In music, it’s almost always a positive, poetic trait.
News & Media: News anchors frequently use this word when reporting on public anticipation for major events—like a cricket world cup final, a budget announcement, or a big movie release. You'll hear phrases like 'Desh ko besabri se intezaar hai' (The country is waiting with impatience).

“इस मैच का करोड़ों फैंस को बेसब्री से इंतज़ार था।” (Millions of fans were waiting for this match with impatience.)

In everyday life, you'll hear it in kitchens, offices, and bus stops. A mother might say to a child reaching for a hot snack, 'Itni besabri kyun?' (Why so much impatience?). A boss might criticize a rushed report by saying, 'Tumne besabri mein galati kar di' (You made a mistake in your impatience). It covers the full spectrum from the mundane to the magnificent.

“राधा की बेसब्री देखकर सब मुस्कुराने लगे।” (Seeing Radha's eagerness/impatience, everyone started smiling.)

Social Media: On Instagram or Twitter, fans often comment '#Besabri' or 'Can't wait!' translated as 'Besabri se intezaar hai' on trailers and posters. It is the go-to word for 'hype.'

Even for intermediate learners, बेसब्री can be tricky due to its grammatical constraints and its proximity to other words meaning 'hurry' or 'restlessness.' Avoiding these common pitfalls will make your Hindi sound more authentic and less 'translated.'

Confusing Noun and Adjective: The most common error is saying 'Main bahut besabri hoon' (I am very impatience). This is grammatically incorrect. You must use the adjective बेसब्र (besabr) to describe a person directly: 'Main bahut besabr hoon.' Or use the noun with 'in': 'Mujhme bahut besabri hai.'
Misusing 'Se' vs 'Mein': Use 'se' when 'besabri' is an adverbial phrase (How are you waiting? Besabri se). Use 'mein' when it is the cause of an action (Why did you fail? Besabri mein - in/due to impatience). Mixing these up can change the nuance of your sentence.

❌ गलत: मैं बेसब्री हूँ। (I am impatience.)
✅ सही: मैं बेसब्र हूँ। (I am impatient.)

Another mistake is confusing 'besabri' with 'jaldbaazi.' While they are related, 'jaldbaazi' specifically implies rushing through a physical action, often leading to mistakes. 'Besabri' is the mental state of wanting something to happen sooner. If you are driving too fast, that's 'jaldbaazi.' If you are tapping your foot waiting for the light to turn green, that's 'besabri.'

उसने बेसब्री में गलत बटन दबा दिया। (In impatience, he pressed the wrong button.)

Overusing with Negatives: Sometimes learners say 'Bina besabri ke' (Without impatience). While technically okay, it sounds clunky. A native speaker would simply use 'Sabr se' (With patience).

Hindi is rich with synonyms for 'impatience,' each carrying a slightly different emotional weight or register. Choosing the right one depends on whether you are writing a formal report, a love letter, or shouting at someone in traffic.

आतुरता (Aaturta): This is the formal, Sanskrit-derived equivalent. It leans more towards 'eagerness' or 'curiosity.' You will find this in literature or news headlines. Example: 'Naye project ko lekar unme aaturta thi' (There was eagerness in them regarding the new project).
बेचैनी (Bechaini): This means 'restlessness' or 'anxiety.' While 'besabri' is about waiting for something specific, 'bechaini' is a more general feeling of unease. You can be 'bechain' (restless) without necessarily waiting for something.
जल्दबाजी (Jaldbaazi): As mentioned before, this is 'haste.' It’s about doing things quickly. If 'besabri' is the feeling, 'jaldbaazi' is the action that often results from it.

“उनकी आतुरता से साफ था कि वे सच जानना चाहते हैं।” (From their eagerness, it was clear they wanted to know the truth.)

Understanding the nuance between 'Besabri' and 'Utaalapan' (impulsiveness) is also useful. 'Utaalapan' is often used as a negative trait, implying a lack of maturity. 'Besabri' is more neutral and human. In poetic contexts, you might also encounter 'beqaraari' (restlessness of the heart), which is almost exclusively used for romantic longing.

“इतनी जल्दबाजी में फैसला मत लो।” (Don't take a decision in such haste.)

In summary, while Besabri is the most versatile and common term, knowing these alternatives allows you to fine-tune your expression of that universal human feeling: the itch of time.

How Formal Is It?

حقيقة ممتعة

The root word 'Sabr' is considered one of the most important virtues in Islamic and South Asian ethical traditions. Therefore, 'Besabri' is not just a lack of time management, but historically seen as a lack of spiritual discipline.

أصل الكلمة

Besabri is derived from the Persian word 'Be-sabri'. The prefix 'Be-' means 'without' or 'lacking', and 'Sabr' is an Arabic-origin word used in Persian and Urdu/Hindi meaning 'patience' or 'perseverance'.

المعنى الأصلي: Lacking the quality of patience; a state of agitation due to waiting.

Indo-Aryan (via Persian and Arabic roots).

السياق الثقافي

Be careful not to label someone's genuine anxiety as just 'besabri', as 'besabri' can sound slightly dismissive of their feelings.

English speakers often use 'impatience' as a negative, but 'Besabri' can be quite romantic or positive (like 'eagerness').

Song: 'Besabriyaan' from the movie M.S. Dhoni. Poetry: Numerous Urdu ghazals by Ghalib and Faiz mention 'sabr' and 'besabri'. Proverb: 'Sabr ka phal meetha hota hai' (The opposite of besabri).
