Erklärung अविवाहित in your Level:
At the A1 level, you just need to know that 'अविवाहित' (ad-viv-aa-hit) means 'not married'. It is a long word, but it is very useful. You can use it in very simple sentences like 'I am unmarried' (मैं अविवाहित हूँ). You might see this word on a form or when someone asks about your family. Think of it as the 'official' way to say you are single. Even if you find it hard to say, recognizing it is important because it appears on almost every official paper in India. Just remember: 'a' at the start often means 'not' in Hindi.

At the A2 level, you should be able to use 'अविवाहित' to describe other people and ask basic questions. You can say 'My friend is unmarried' (मेरा दोस्त अविवाहित है) or 'Are you unmarried?' (क्या आप अविवाहित हैं?). It is an adjective that doesn't change its ending, which makes it easier for you! You don't have to worry about if the person is a man or a woman; the word stays 'अविवाहित'. This is the level where you start distinguishing between formal words like this and casual words like 'shaadi nahi hui' (marriage hasn't happened).
At the B1 level, you can use 'अविवाहित' in more complex sentences involving reasons and time. For example, 'He wants to stay unmarried for two more years' (वह दो और साल तक अविवाहित रहना चाहता है). You should also understand that 'अविवाहित' is the standard term used in news, documents, and formal introductions. You can start using it in written Hindi, like in a letter or an application.

You can discuss social trends, such as 'The number of unmarried women in cities is increasing' (शहरों में अविवाहित महिलाओं की संख्या बढ़ रही है). You understand that while 'single' is a common English loanword in Hinglish, 'अविवाहित' provides a more formal and sophisticated tone. You can also use it to modify nouns in different cases, such as 'अविवाहित लोगों के लिए' (for unmarried people), noticing that the adjective itself remains unchanged.

अविवाहित in 30 Sekunden

  • Formal Hindi word for 'unmarried' or 'single'.
  • Derived from Sanskrit; remains unchanged regardless of gender.
  • Commonly used in official forms, news, and formal speech.
  • Direct antonym of 'विवाहित' (married).

The Hindi word अविवाहित (Advivāhit) is a formal and precise adjective used to describe a person who is not currently married. Derived from Sanskrit roots, it combines the negative prefix 'अ-' (a-), meaning 'not' or 'without', with 'विवाहित' (vivāhit), meaning 'married'. In the linguistic landscape of Hindi, this term holds a position of high register, often appearing in official documentation, legal contexts, and formal introductions. While everyday conversation might favor the word 'कुँवारा' (kunvārā) for a bachelor or 'एकल' (ekal) for single, अविवाहित provides a neutral, respectful, and unambiguous status report. It does not carry the same colloquial weight as 'single' in English, which can sometimes imply 'available' or 'dating'; instead, it strictly denotes the legal and social state of being unmarried.

Etymological Breakdown
The root 'Vivāh' refers to the ceremony of marriage. By adding the 'it' suffix, it becomes an adjective (married). The 'a-' prefix negates the entire state, creating a word that literally translates to 'un-married-ed'.
Social Register
In Indian society, where marital status is often a primary identifier, using अविवाहित in a professional bio or a government form is standard. It avoids the gendered nuances found in other terms.

"वह अभी भी अविवाहित है और अपने करियर पर ध्यान दे रही है।"

— Translation: She is still unmarried and is focusing on her career.

Understanding the nuance of अविवाहित requires looking at how it differs from its synonyms. While 'कुँवारा' is specifically for a young man who hasn't married, and 'कुँवारी' for a young woman, अविवाहित is gender-neutral. It is the term you will see on a passport application, a census form, or a formal matrimonial profile. It suggests a certain level of maturity and formality. If you are filling out a bank form and need to check a box for 'Single', the label will almost certainly be अविवाहित. It is also used in academic discussions about demographics, such as 'unmarried population' (अविवाहित जनसंख्या).

"कृपया अपनी वैवाहिक स्थिति बताएं: विवाहित या अविवाहित?"

— Translation: Please state your marital status: married or unmarried?
Modern Usage
In the age of dating apps, the word 'Single' is often transliterated as 'सिंगल' in Hinglish. However, for any official purpose, अविवाहित remains the gold standard.

Using अविवाहित (Advivāhit) correctly involves understanding its role as an adjective that modifies a noun (usually a person) or functions as a subject complement. Because it is an adjective ending in 'it' (derived from Sanskrit), it does not change its form based on gender or number in modern standard Hindi, making it relatively easy for learners to master. Whether you are talking about a man, a woman, or a group of people, the word remains अविवाहित.

"मेरे चाचा अविवाहित हैं।"

— My uncle is unmarried.

In this sentence, अविवाहित follows the subject 'मेरे चाचा' (my uncle) and the auxiliary verb 'हैं' (are/is respectful). Notice that even though 'चाचा' is masculine, the word doesn't change. Similarly, for a feminine subject:

"उसकी बड़ी बहन अभी अविवाहित है।"

— His elder sister is still unmarried.
Common Sentence Patterns
  • Subject + अविवाहित + है/हैं: To state someone's status directly.
  • अविवाहित + Noun: To describe a group (e.g., अविवाहित पुरुष - unmarried men).
  • क्या आप अविवाहित हैं?: The standard formal question to ask someone if they are single.

One important distinction is the use of अविवाहित in the context of 'staying' or 'remaining'. In Hindi, we use the verb 'रहना' (to stay/remain). For example, "वह जीवनभर अविवाहित रहा" (He remained unmarried throughout his life). This implies a continuous state. You might also encounter it in legal disclaimers: "अविवाहित होने का प्रमाण पत्र" (Certificate of being unmarried/Single Status Certificate).

"क्या यह योजना केवल अविवाहित महिलाओं के लिए है?"

— Is this scheme only for unmarried women?

If you are traveling in India or interacting with Hindi speakers, you will encounter अविवाहित (Advivāhit) in very specific, usually structured environments. While friends might ask "Are you single?" using the English word or "Shaadi ho gayi?" (Is the marriage done?), अविवाहित is the word of the 'official' world.

The Bureaucratic World
Whenever you fill out a form in India—be it for a visa, a bank account, or a gas connection—you will see a section for 'Marital Status' (वैवाहिक स्थिति). The options provided are almost always 'विवाहित' (Married), 'अविवाहित' (Unmarried), 'विधवा/विधुर' (Widow/Widower), and 'तलाकशुदा' (Divorced).
News and Media
News reports often use this word when describing individuals. For instance, "The victim was a 25-year-old unmarried youth" would be translated as "पीड़ित एक 25 वर्षीय अविवाहित युवक था।" It provides a factual description without the emotional connotations of other words.

"जनगणना के अनुसार, देश में अविवाहित लोगों की संख्या बढ़ रही है।"

— According to the census, the number of unmarried people in the country is increasing.

Another place you will frequently hear this word is in the context of 'Matrimonials'. In Indian newspapers, there are entire sections dedicated to finding spouses. While the advertisements themselves use varied language, the formal categories and the underlying legal status are always referred to as अविवाहित. In Bollywood movies, a lawyer or a stern father might use this word to emphasize a point of law or family status: "जब तक तुम अविवाहित हो, तुम्हें मेरी बात माननी होगी" (As long as you are unmarried, you must obey me).

In higher education and academic seminars, when discussing social trends, अविवाहित is used to maintain a professional distance. It is a 'safe' word—it doesn't offend, it doesn't judge, and it is universally understood across all Hindi dialects as the standard term for a single person.

For English speakers learning Hindi, the word अविवाहित (Advivāhit) seems straightforward, but there are several subtle traps that can lead to unnatural-sounding Hindi or even confusion.

Mistake 1: Overusing it in Casual Conversation
In English, 'unmarried' and 'single' are often interchangeable. In Hindi, if you are at a party and someone asks if you have a partner, saying "मैं अविवाहित हूँ" (I am unmarried) sounds like you are reading from a legal affidavit. It’s too stiff.
Better: "मेरी शादी नहीं हुई है" (My marriage hasn't happened) or "मैं सिंगल हूँ" (I am single).
Mistake 2: Confusing with 'Kunwara'
While they both mean unmarried, 'Kunwara' (कुँवारा) often implies youth and the expectation of future marriage. अविवाहित is a neutral statement of fact. Using 'Kunwara' for a 50-year-old might sound slightly mocking or overly familiar, whereas अविवाहित remains respectful.

"Incorrect: वह एक अविवाहित लड़का है।"

— Note: While grammatically correct, it sounds like a police report. In a story, use 'कुँवारा'.

Another mistake is trying to pluralize the word. In English, we say 'unmarried people'. In Hindi, adjectives like अविवाहित do not change for the plural. You should not say 'अविवाहितों' unless you are using it as a noun in a very specific grammatical case (oblique plural), which is rare for this word. Keep it as अविवाहित regardless of how many people you are talking about.

Lastly, do not confuse अविवाहित with 'अकेला' (akela). 'Akela' means 'alone'. You can be अविवाहित but surrounded by family and friends. Using 'akela' when you mean 'unmarried' can sound very sad and lonely!

Hindi has a rich vocabulary for marital status, each with its own 'flavor' and appropriate setting. Understanding these will help you choose the right word for the right moment, moving beyond the clinical अविवाहित (Advivāhit).

1. कुँवारा (Kunvārā) / कुँवारी (Kunvārī)
Usage: Casual, social.
Meaning: Bachelor / Bachelorette. This is the most common word used in daily life. It often implies someone of marriageable age who hasn't married yet.
Example: "मेरा भाई अभी कुँवारा है।" (My brother is still a bachelor.)
2. एकल (Ekal)
Usage: Modern, slightly formal.
Meaning: Single. This is often used for 'single parents' (एकल माता-पिता) or 'single life'. It's a more modern translation of the English concept of being 'single'.
3. अनब्याहा (Anbyāhā)
Usage: Rural, poetic, or regional.
Meaning: Unwed. Derived from 'Byah' (a folk word for marriage). It sounds more traditional and is often heard in folk songs or rural storytelling.

"Comparison: 'अविवाहित' is a status; 'कुँवारा' is a phase of life; 'सिंगल' is a lifestyle choice."

When should you stick to अविवाहित? Use it when you want to be 100% respectful and avoid any assumptions about the person's age or intentions. For example, if you are writing a biography of a famous scientist who never married, अविवाहित is the most dignified choice. If you are talking about yourself in a professional interview, it is also the safest bet.

In summary, while अविवाहित is the 'dictionary' word, the Hindi world is full of alternatives. Use अविवाहित for forms, कुँवारा for friends, and सिंगल for dating contexts!

How Formal Is It?

Wusstest du?

In ancient Sanskrit, the prefix 'vi-' in 'vivah' meant 'away' and 'vah' meant 'carry'. Marriage literally meant 'carrying the bride away' to the groom's house.

Using 'अविवाहित' instead of 'कुँवारा' for an older person is more respectful.

Spelling

Pay attention to the 'v' and 'h'—they both need the small 'i' vowel (ि).

News

Watch Hindi news; they often use this word when describing people in reports.

Official vs Casual

Think of 'अविवाहित' as 'Unmarried' and 'शादी नहीं हुई' as 'Not married'.

Root Word

Just remember 'Vivah' = Wedding. 'A-' = No. No-Wedding = अविवाहित.

Einprägen

Eselsbrücke

Think of 'A' as 'Absent' and 'Vivahit' as 'Vows'. So, 'A-Vivahit' means 'Absent Vows' or no marriage vows taken.

Visuelle Assoziation

Imagine a formal document with a checkbox next to the word 'अविवाहित'. This associates it with its most common real-world use.

Wortherkunft

Derived from the Sanskrit word 'अविवाहित' (avivāhita). It is a compound of 'a-' (negation) and 'vivāhita' (past participle of 'vi-vah', meaning to carry away/marry).

Ursprüngliche Bedeutung: Not carried away/not taken in marriage.

Indo-Aryan (Sanskrit descendant).

Kultureller Kontext

Be careful when asking elders about being 'अविवाहित'; it can sometimes be a sensitive topic if they wanted to marry but couldn't.

While English speakers use 'single' for both legal status and dating status, Hindi speakers use 'अविवाहित' mostly for the legal/formal status.

Atal Bihari Vajpayee, a former Prime Minister of India, was famously 'अविवाहित'. Lata Mangeshkar, the legendary singer, remained 'अविवाहित' throughout her life. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the former President, was also 'अविवाहित'.
