Erklärung अस्वीकारना in your Level:
At the A1 level, you are just starting to learn how to say 'no'. While 'अस्वीकारना' (asvīkārnā) might be a bit advanced for a total beginner, you can think of it as a very polite and serious way to say 'No, thank you' to something formal. At this stage, you mostly use 'मना करना' (manā karnā) to refuse things like food or invitations. However, learning 'अस्वीकारना' helps you recognize it in signs or formal announcements. Imagine you are at a shop and they don't accept credit cards; they might have a sign that says 'क्रेडिट कार्ड अस्वीकार्य हैं' (Credit cards are not acceptable/rejected). Even though you won't use the verb yourself yet, knowing the root 'अस्वीकार' helps you understand that something is not being accepted. Focus on the simple meaning: 'To not accept'. If someone gives you a gift and you want to be very formal in a story, you could say 'अस्वीकार' (rejection). But for now, just remember it as the opposite of 'accept' (स्वीकार). In A1, we keep sentences simple: 'He said no' (उसने मना किया). 'अस्वीकारना' is like the 'big brother' of 'मना करना'—it's used when things are serious or official. You might see it in a simple Hindi textbook when talking about a king rejecting a deal. It's a good word to have in your 'passive' vocabulary (words you understand but don't use yet).

At the A2 level, you are beginning to handle more social situations. You might need to decline an invitation or a formal offer. While 'मना करना' is still your main tool, you can start using 'अस्वीकार करना' (the common way to use the verb) in written notes or formal emails. For example, if you are writing a polite message to a teacher or a boss saying you cannot accept a certain task, 'अस्वीकार' sounds much more respectful. You are learning that Hindi has different 'registers' or levels of politeness. 'अस्वीकारना' belongs to the 'Shuddh' (pure/formal) register. At A2, you should practice the basic sentence structure: [Object] + [अस्वीकार करना]. For example: 'मैंने मिठाई अस्वीकार कर दी' (I rejected the sweets). This shows you are moving beyond basic survival Hindi and into more nuanced communication. You will also start to see this word in short news snippets or on official websites. If you are applying for a bus pass and it gets turned down, the status might say 'अस्वीकृत' (rejected). Recognizing the verb 'अस्वीकारना' within that word will help you navigate daily life in India more effectively. You should also notice how it changes in the past tense with 'ने'. 'उसने मेरा तोहफ़ा अस्वीकार किया' (He rejected my gift). This helps you practice your 'ne' rule with a slightly more complex verb.

At the B1 level, 'अस्वीकारना' should become part of your active vocabulary. You are now expected to handle professional and semi-formal interactions. You should use this word when discussing job applications, business proposals, or official requests. At this level, you understand that 'अस्वीकारना' is not just about saying 'no', but about a formal act of rejection. You can use it to describe why a certain plan didn't work: 'समिति ने योजना को अस्वीकार कर दिया क्योंकि वह बहुत महंगी थी' (The committee rejected the plan because it was too expensive). You are also learning to use compound verbs like 'अस्वीकार कर देना', which sounds more natural and complete. B1 learners should focus on the distinction between 'अस्वीकारना' (rejecting a thing/proposal) and 'मना करना' (refusing to do an action). You should also be comfortable with the passive voice: 'आपका आवेदन अस्वीकार कर दिया गया है' (Your application has been rejected). This is very common in formal Hindi. You might also start using it in debates or discussions to show you disagree with an idea in a principled way. Instead of saying 'I don't like this idea', you say 'मैं इस विचार को अस्वीकार करता हूँ', which sounds much more intellectual and firm. This word is a key building block for reaching professional fluency in Hindi.
At the B2 level, you are mastering the nuances of 'अस्वीकारना'. You understand that it can mean 'to deny' an allegation as well as 'to reject' an offer. You can use it in more complex sentence structures, such as using it as a gerund: 'सत्य को अस्वीकारना असंभव है' (It is impossible to deny the truth). You are also aware of the cultural implications—using 'अस्वीकारना' can sometimes be a way to avoid the bluntness of 'मना करना' by making the rejection sound like a formal decision rather than a personal whim. You can now use it in academic contexts, such as writing an essay where you reject a certain historical viewpoint. You should be able to differentiate it from synonyms like 'ठुकराना' (which you would use for emotional rejections in literature) and 'नामंज़ूर करना' (which you use for official disapproval). Your use of gender agreement in the past tense should be flawless: 'उसने मेरी प्रार्थना (f) अस्वीकार कर दी'. You are also starting to use the word in the context of human rights or social issues, such as 'समाज ने इन कुरीतियों को अस्वीकार कर दिया है' (Society has rejected these evil practices). At B2, 'अस्वीकारना' is a tool for expressing complex social and intellectual stances with precision and authority.

At the C1 level, you use 'अस्वीकारना' with the finesse of a native speaker. You understand its place in the broader landscape of Sanskrit-derived vocabulary. You can use it to discuss abstract philosophical concepts, legal precedents, and high-level political strategies. You might use it in a sentence like 'अस्तित्ववाद के सिद्धांतों को पूर्णतः अस्वीकारना कठिन है' (It is difficult to completely reject the principles of existentialism). You are also familiar with the nominal form 'अस्वीकृति' (rejection/refusal) and can use it fluently in formal writing. You can distinguish between 'अस्वीकारना' and 'खंडन करना' (refuting a claim) in a high-stakes debate. You understand that 'अस्वीकारना' implies a lack of 'स्वीकृति' (acceptance), which is a core concept in Indian philosophy and social hierarchy. You might even use the word in a literary sense to describe a character's internal state: 'उसने अपने अतीत को अस्वीकारने का प्रयास किया' (He tried to reject/deny his past). At this level, you are sensitive to the rhythm and 'vibe' of the word—it sounds heavy, serious, and final. You use it to command respect and to indicate that your decision or opinion is based on a thoughtful evaluation of the facts. You are also able to translate complex English legal or academic texts into Hindi using 'अस्वीकारना' in a way that preserves the original tone and precision.

At the C2 level, you have a near-native grasp of 'अस्वीकारना' and its myriad applications. You can use it in the most formal judicial settings or in the most profound philosophical treatises. You understand the subtle historical shifts in how this word has been used in Hindi literature from the Bhakti period to modern times. You can use it to deconstruct arguments, pointing out where a premise must be 'अस्वीकार' (rejected) for the logic to hold. You are comfortable using it in highly complex, multi-clause sentences: 'यद्यपि प्रस्ताव में कई आकर्षक पहलू थे, फिर भी दीर्घकालिक परिणामों को देखते हुए प्रबंधन ने इसे पूर्णतः अस्वीकारना ही उचित समझा' (Although the proposal had many attractive aspects, the management still thought it appropriate to completely reject it, considering the long-term consequences). You can also play with the word's associations, perhaps using it ironically in a poem or a sophisticated piece of satire. You are aware of how 'अस्वीकारना' interacts with other Sanskrit-based terms like 'अंगीकार करना' (to embrace/accept) to create a sophisticated rhetorical contrast. For you, 'अस्वीकारना' is not just a word; it is a conceptual tool that you use to navigate the highest levels of Hindi discourse, whether in a Supreme Court judgment, a philosophical debate, or a masterpiece of modern Hindi prose.

अस्वीकारना in 30 Sekunden

  • अस्वीकारना means to formally refuse or reject something, like a job offer or a proposal.
  • It is a high-register word used in professional, legal, and news contexts instead of 'manā karnā'.
  • Grammatically, it is a transitive verb often used in the past tense with the 'ne' particle.
  • Culturally, it provides a polite yet firm way to decline without sounding personally offensive.

The Hindi verb अस्वीकारना (Asvīkārnā) is a formal and precise term that translates to 'to refuse', 'to reject', or 'to decline'. Rooted in Sanskrit, it is the direct negation of the word 'स्वीकारना' (svīkārnā), which means to accept. While in everyday spoken Hindi, you might hear people say 'मना करना' (manā karnā) for a simple 'no', अस्वीकारना carries a weight of formality and finality that makes it essential for professional, legal, and literary contexts. Understanding this word allows a learner to navigate situations where a simple 'no' is too informal or where a specific action of rejection needs to be documented.

Formal Rejection
This word is the standard choice when a government office, a university, or a corporate entity turns down an application or a proposal. It implies a conscious decision-making process.

विश्वविद्यालय ने उनके शोध प्रस्ताव को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (The university rejected his research proposal.)

Beyond administrative use, अस्वीकारना is used to describe the rejection of ideologies, gifts, or even social norms. It suggests a higher level of agency on the part of the person doing the rejecting. For example, if a politician rejects a bribe, the word used would be अस्वीकारना because it emphasizes the moral stance taken. It is not just a refusal of an object; it is a refusal of the terms associated with that object.

Social Context
When someone refuses a formal invitation to a wedding or a high-profile event, 'अस्वीकारना' is the verb of choice in the written reply. It maintains the dignity of both the host and the guest.

उन्होंने विनम्रतापूर्वक आमंत्रण को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (They politely declined the invitation.)

In literary Hindi, writers use this word to depict internal conflict—a character rejecting their destiny or a past life. This gives the word a philosophical dimension that 'manā karnā' lacks. It is about the negation of existence or validity. If a judge rejects an argument in court, it is 'अस्वीकारना' because the argument is deemed invalid or unacceptable within the framework of the law.

Nuance of Authority
There is often an inherent power dynamic. The one 'अस्वीकार' doing the rejecting usually has the authority to validate or invalidate the thing being offered.

समिति ने सभी पुराने नियमों को अस्वीकार कर दिया है। (The committee has rejected all the old rules.)

क्या आप इस उपहार को अस्वीकार करेंगे? (Will you reject this gift?)

सत्य को अस्वीकारना कठिन है। (It is difficult to deny the truth.)

Using अस्वीकारना correctly involves understanding its transitive nature and its preference for formal objects. In Hindi grammar, this verb is often paired with the auxiliary verb 'कर देना' or 'करना'. When you use it as 'अस्वीकार करना', the thing being rejected is marked by the postposition 'को' if it is a specific noun, or it acts as a direct object. This section will guide you through various grammatical structures to master its usage.

Direct Object Construction
The most common way to use this verb is [Subject] + [Object] + [अस्वीकार करना]. This is used for rejecting concrete offers or abstract ideas.

सरकार ने नई मांगों को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (The government rejected the new demands.)

When using the past tense (Perfective aspect), remember that 'करना' is a transitive verb, so the subject takes the 'ने' (ne) particle. The verb then agrees with the object in gender and number. This is a crucial point for B1 learners to remember, as it differentiates formal writing from casual speech. If you are rejecting a feminine noun like 'माँग' (demand), and you use 'कर दी' instead of 'कर दिया', it shows high linguistic proficiency.

Using the Infinitive as a Noun
You can also use 'अस्वीकारना' as a gerund (verbal noun) meaning 'the act of rejecting'. This is common in philosophical or legal discussions.

किसी की मदद अस्वीकारना कभी-कभी अहंकार का संकेत होता है। (Rejecting someone's help is sometimes a sign of arrogance.)

Another sophisticated way to use this word is in the passive voice, which is very common in news reporting. Instead of saying 'They rejected the bill', news anchors will say 'The bill was rejected'. In Hindi, this is achieved using 'अस्वीकार किया जाना' (to be rejected). This removes the focus from the person and places it on the action itself, which is a hallmark of formal Hindi.

आवेदन पत्र तकनीकी कारणों से अस्वीकार कर दिया गया। (The application form was rejected due to technical reasons.)

Negation and Denial
When 'अस्वीकारना' is used for facts or allegations, it takes on the meaning of 'to deny'. This is slightly different from 'refusing' an offer.

उसने चोरी के आरोपों को अस्वीकार किया। (He denied the allegations of theft.)

Finally, consider the adverbial usage. You can use 'अस्वीकार करते हुए' (while rejecting) to show simultaneous action. 'He left the room while rejecting the offer' becomes 'प्रस्ताव अस्वीकार करते हुए वह कमरे से बाहर चला गया'. This level of sentence construction is what moves a student from B1 to B2 level in Hindi.

बिना कोई कारण बताए, उन्होंने मेरा अनुरोध अस्वीकार कर दिया। (Without giving any reason, they rejected my request.)

If you are walking through a busy market in Delhi or Mumbai, you might not hear 'अस्वीकारना' very often. People will say 'नहीं चाहिए' (don't want) or 'मना कर दिया' (refused). However, as soon as you step into a bank, a court, a corporate office, or turn on the evening news, अस्वीकारना becomes the dominant term for rejection. It is a word of institutions and formal interactions.

In the News (Samachar)
News anchors use this word constantly when reporting on international relations or legislative developments. If India rejects a statement from another country, the headline will always use 'अस्वीकार'.

भारत ने विदेशी हस्तक्षेप की संभावना को अस्वीकार किया। (India rejected the possibility of foreign interference.)

In the corporate world, when you receive an automated email regarding a job application or a loan request, the Hindi version of the portal will likely use the word 'अस्वीकृत' (rejected - the past participle form) or 'अस्वीकार कर दिया गया है'. It provides a level of professional distance that is necessary for delivering bad news. Hearing this word in a professional setting signals that a final decision has been reached based on certain criteria.

Legal and Judicial Context
In a courtroom, a judge might 'अस्वीकार' a bail plea or a piece of evidence. Here, the word carries the force of law. It means the evidence is not just ignored, but legally barred from consideration.

न्यायालय ने याचिका को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (The court rejected the petition.)

Literature and high-brow cinema (Parallel Cinema) also utilize 'अस्वीकारना' to convey complex emotions. A character might reject a traditional lifestyle or a marriage proposal in a way that is meant to be seen as a significant life choice. In these contexts, the word sounds more poetic and deliberate than the common 'inkaar' or 'mana'. It suggests a rejection of the 'v स्वीकार' (acceptance) of social contracts.

Academic Writing
In textbooks and essays, scholars use this word to reject theories or historical interpretations. It is the language of critical analysis.

इतिहासकारों ने इस नए सिद्धांत को अस्वीकार कर दिया है। (Historians have rejected this new theory.)

बैंक ने मेरा ऋण आवेदन अस्वीकार कर दिया। (The bank rejected my loan application.)

क्या तुम मेरी बात को अस्वीकार कर रहे हो? (Are you rejecting what I am saying?)

Learning to use अस्वीकारना correctly involves avoiding a few common pitfalls that English speakers often encounter. Because English uses 'reject' and 'refuse' in many different ways, learners tend to over-apply 'अस्वीकारना' in situations where it sounds unnaturally stiff or grammatically incorrect. Here are the most common mistakes and how to fix them.

Mistake 1: Using it in Casual Conversation
If a friend offers you a cup of tea and you say 'मैं चाय को अस्वीकार करता हूँ' (I reject the tea), it sounds like you are making a formal decree against tea. It is far too heavy for the situation.

Incorrect: मैंने दोस्त की पार्टी का न्योता अस्वीकार कर दिया। (Sounds like a diplomatic rift.)
Correct: मैंने दोस्त की पार्टी में जाने से मना कर दिया। (Sounds natural.)

Mistake 2: Confusing 'अस्वीकारना' with 'इन्कार करना' (Inkār karnā). While they both mean to refuse, 'इन्कार करना' is often used when refusing to do something (followed by a verb), whereas 'अस्वीकारना' is used for refusing a thing (a noun). If you refuse to go to work, use 'इन्कार'. If you reject a job offer, use 'अस्वीकार'. Using them interchangeably can make your Hindi sound slightly 'off' to native speakers.

Mistake 3: Incorrect Gender Agreement
As mentioned before, when used with 'ने' in the past tense, the verb must agree with the object. Many learners default to the masculine 'किया' or 'कर दिया' for everything.

Mistake: उसने मेरी योजना (f) को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (Acceptable but less precise.)
Better: उसने मेरी योजना अस्वीकार कर दी। (Perfect agreement.)

Mistake 4: Redundancy. Sometimes learners say 'नहीं अस्वीकार करना' (to not reject), which is grammatically fine but stylistically clunky. Instead of double negatives, native speakers prefer using 'स्वीकार करना' (to accept) or 'मान लेना' (to agree). Rejection is already a negative concept, so adding 'नहीं' requires careful context to avoid confusion.

Mistake 5: Misusing the Passive Voice
Learners often forget the 'जाना' (to go) auxiliary in passive constructions. They might say 'प्रस्ताव अस्वीकार किया' instead of 'प्रस्ताव अस्वीकार किया गया' for 'The proposal was rejected'.

सही (Correct): आवेदन को अस्वीकार कर दिया गया है। (The application has been rejected.)

गलत (Incorrect): मैं आपकी सहायता अस्वीकारता हूँ। (Verb conjugation 'अस्वीकारता' is rare; use 'अस्वीकार करता हूँ'.)

Hindi is a language rich with synonyms, each carrying a different flavor of 'no'. While अस्वीकारना is your go-to for formal rejection, knowing the alternatives will help you sound more like a native and understand the nuances of different social situations. Here is a comparison of common alternatives.

अस्वीकारना vs. मना करना (Manā karnā)
'मना करना' is the most common and versatile way to say 'to refuse' or 'to say no'. It is used in 90% of daily conversations. 'अस्वीकारना' is reserved for formal documents or serious rejections.

बच्चे ने खाना खाने से मना कर दिया। (The child refused to eat. - Natural)
बच्चे ने खाना अस्वीकार कर दिया। (Sounds like a food critic's review.)

Another powerful alternative is ठुकराना (Ṭhukrānā). This word literally means 'to kick away' and is used when a rejection is seen as an insult or a very emotional act. If someone rejects a marriage proposal or a heartfelt gift in a movie, the word used is almost always 'ठुकराना'. It implies a level of disdain or harshness that 'अस्वीकारना' doesn't have.

अस्वीकारना vs. नामंज़ूर करना (Nāmanzūr karnā)
'नामंज़ूर' comes from Urdu roots and is very common in legal and official contexts. It specifically means 'not approved'. You will see this on official stamps and government orders.

आपकी छुट्टी की अर्ज़ी नामंज़ूर कर दी गई है। (Your leave application has been disapproved/rejected.)

For denying an allegation or a truth, खंडन करना (Khaṇḍan karnā) is often used in journalism. It means 'to refute' or 'to debunk'. While 'अस्वीकारना' says 'I don't accept this', 'खंडन करना' says 'This is false and I am proving it'. This is a higher-level word (C1) that adds great depth to your vocabulary.

Summary Table
  • मना करना: General refusal (Daily life).
  • अस्वीकारना: Formal rejection (Professional).
  • ठुकराना: Harsh/Emotional rejection (Drama/Stories).
  • नामंज़ूर करना: Official disapproval (Legal/Admin).
  • खंडन करना: Refutation of a claim (News/Debate).

उसने प्रेम को ठुकरा दिया। (He rejected love - very poetic/dramatic.)

अदालत ने गवाह के बयान को अस्वीकार कर दिया। (The court rejected the witness's statement.)

How Formal Is It?

Wusstest du?

The root 'Sva' (self) in 'Svīkāra' is cognate with the Latin 'suus' and English 'self'. So, 'अस्वीकारना' literally means 'to not take as one's own'.

    In past tense, the verb agrees with the feminine object 'chai'.

Tipps

Check Object Gender

Always check the gender of the object you are rejecting to ensure the verb ending is correct in the past tense.

Learn the Noun

Learn 'अस्वीकृति' (rejection) alongside the verb to expand your formal writing skills.

Professional Use

Use this word in job interviews if you need to talk about turning down a previous offer.

Polite Rejection

Pair 'अस्वीकार' with 'विनम्रतापूर्वक' (politely) to soften the blow of a formal 'no'.

News Watch

Watch Hindi news headlines; you will hear this word almost every day regarding politics.

Official Letters

Use this verb in the subject line of a formal rejection email for clarity.

Denial vs Rejection

Remember it works for both 'rejecting an offer' and 'denying a fact'.

Prefix Power

The prefix 'A-' in Hindi almost always means 'Not'. A + Svikar = Not Accept.

Avoid Slang

Never use 'अस्वीकारना' in a street fight or casual argument; it sounds out of place.

Clear Enunciation

Make sure to pronounce the 'v' clearly; don't let it sound like 'u'.

Einprägen

Eselsbrücke

Think of 'A' as 'Anti' and 'Svikar' as 'Seeker'. An 'Anti-Seeker' rejects what is offered.

Visuelle Assoziation

Imagine a big red 'REJECTED' stamp hitting a paper. The sound of that stamp is 'अस्वीकार'.

Word Web

Rejection Formal No Refuse Deny Proposal Application Official

Herausforderung

Write three formal sentences: one rejecting a job, one rejecting a gift, and one denying a rumor.

Wortherkunft

Derived from the Sanskrit word 'Asvīkāra'. It is a combination of the prefix 'a-' (negation) and 'svīkāra' (acceptance).

Ursprüngliche Bedeutung: The act of not making something one's own (Sva = self, Kara = doing).

Indo-Aryan (Sanskrit-derived).

Kultureller Kontext

Be careful when using this with friends; it can sound cold or robotic. Stick to 'manā karnā' for social plans.

English speakers often use 'reject' for both trash and proposals. In Hindi, use 'अस्वीकारना' for proposals but never for trash (use 'फेंकना').

The phrase 'अस्वीकार' is often heard in the Indian Parliament (Lok Sabha) when a motion is rejected. In the movie 'Pink', the concept of 'No means No' is translated in formal discussions as 'अस्वीकार'. Mahatma Gandhi's 'Non-cooperation movement' involved the 'अस्वीकार' of British goods.
