हस्ताक्षर en 30 secondes
- हस्ताक्षर means signature, your personal written mark of identity.
- Used on official documents for agreement and authorization.
- Commonly replaced by 'दस्तखत' in everyday speech.
- Crucial for legal and formal transactions.
- Meaning
- The Hindi word 'हस्ताक्षर' (hastākshar) translates to 'signature' in English. It refers to a person's name written in their own distinctive way, typically to show that they have written or authorized a particular document. It's a formal mark of identity and agreement.
- Usage Contexts
- You will encounter 'हस्ताक्षर' in many official and legal situations. This includes signing documents like contracts, agreements, bank forms, government applications, and even official letters. Whenever a formal acknowledgment or authorization is required, a signature is usually needed. In a broader sense, it represents a personal endorsement or mark of authenticity. For example, when you receive an important parcel, you might be asked to provide your 'हस्ताक्षर' on the delivery receipt. Similarly, when opening a bank account, your 'हस्ताक्षर' is a crucial part of the verification process. It's also used in educational settings for attendance sheets or exam papers. The act of signing is as important as the signature itself, signifying consent and responsibility. The word itself is derived from Sanskrit, with 'hasta' meaning hand and 'akshar' meaning letter or syllable, literally meaning 'hand-written letter'. This etymology beautifully captures the essence of a signature as a personal mark made by hand.

- Possessive Forms
- You can indicate whose signature it is using possessive pronouns or nouns.
यह मेरी माँ का हस्ताक्षर है।
- Plural Form (Less Common)
- While 'हस्ताक्षर' is generally used in the singular, referring to a single signature, in contexts where multiple signatures are discussed collectively or as a category, the plural form 'हस्ताक्षर' might be implicitly understood or contextually implied. However, for distinct signatures, it's usually singular.

- Official and Bureaucratic Settings
- The most frequent place you'll hear 'हस्ताक्षर' is in contexts involving official procedures. This includes government offices, banks, post offices, and any place where formal documents are processed. A clerk might say, 'कृपया इस फ़ॉर्म पर अपना हस्ताक्षर करें' (Kripya is form par apna hastākshar karein - Please put your signature on this form). In a bank, a teller might ask, 'क्या आप इस रसीद पर हस्ताक्षर कर सकते हैं?' (Kya aap is raseed par hastākshar kar sakte hain? - Can you sign this receipt?).
यह दस्तावेज़ तभी मान्य होगा जब इस पर हस्ताक्षर होंगे।
- Legal and Business Transactions
- In the world of business and law, 'हस्ताक्षर' is a fundamental term. Lawyers, real estate agents, and business owners will use it frequently when discussing contracts, agreements, property deeds, and other legally binding documents. You might hear discussions like, 'हमारे क्लाइंट के हस्ताक्षर अभी बाकी हैं' (Hamare client ke hastākshar abhi baaki hain - Our client's signatures are still pending). This highlights its importance in formal agreements.
संविदा पर सभी पक्षों के हस्ताक्षर होने चाहिए।
- Educational Institutions
- In schools and universities, 'हस्ताक्षर' is used for attendance registers, exam answer sheets, and official permission slips. Teachers might ask students to 'अपने रोल नंबर के आगे हस्ताक्षर करें' (Apne roll number ke aage hastākshar karein - Sign next to your roll number).
परीक्षा शुरू होने से पहले, प्रत्येक छात्र को प्रश्न पत्र पर अपना हस्ताक्षर करना होगा।
- Personal Correspondence (Formal)
- While less common in everyday chat, if you are writing a formal letter or responding to an official inquiry, you might refer to the need for a signature. For instance, 'आपके हस्ताक्षर के बिना यह पत्र अधूरा है' (Aapke hastākshar ke bina yeh patra adhoora hai - This letter is incomplete without your signature).
क्या आप कृपया इस अनुमोदन पत्र पर हस्ताक्षर कर सकते हैं?
- Confusing with the Act of Signing
- Learners might sometimes confuse the noun 'हस्ताक्षर' (signature) with the verb 'हस्ताक्षर करना' (to sign). While related, they are distinct. 'हस्ताक्षर' is the mark itself, while 'हस्ताक्षर करना' is the action of making that mark. For example, saying 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर' (Mujhe hastākshar - I need signature) is correct, but saying 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर करना' (Mujhe hastākshar karnā - I need to sign) implies the action. Using 'हस्ताक्षर' when you mean the verb can lead to grammatical errors.
Incorrect: मुझे हस्ताक्षर करना है। (Implies 'I need to signature')
Correct: मुझे हस्ताक्षर करना है। (I have to sign.)
Correct: मुझे इस पर हस्ताक्षर चाहिए। (I need a signature on this.)
- Using the Wrong Register
- 'हस्ताक्षर' is a formal word. Using it in very casual, everyday conversations where a simple acknowledgment is needed might sound overly formal or even out of place. For instance, if a friend asks you to confirm something verbally, you wouldn't say 'मैं तुम्हें हस्ताक्षर दे रहा हूँ' (Main tumhein hastākshar de raha hoon - I am giving you signature). You'd use simpler confirmation phrases.
Incorrect (Informal): दोस्त ने कहा, 'इस बात पर हस्ताक्षर कर दो।' (Friend said, 'Put a signature on this matter.')
Correct (Informal): दोस्त ने कहा, 'ठीक है, मान लिया।' (Friend said, 'Okay, I accept.')
Correct (Formal): अधिकारी ने कहा, 'इस अनुबंध पर हस्ताक्षर करें।' (The official said, 'Sign this contract.')
- Grammatical Case Errors
- Like many Hindi nouns, 'हस्ताक्षर' can take different case endings depending on its function in the sentence. Forgetting to add postpositions or using incorrect ones can lead to errors. For example, the dative case might be needed when indicating who the signature is for or to whom it is given, but this is less common for 'हस्ताक्षर' itself. More often, the direct object or subject form is used.
Incorrect: उसने हस्ताक्षर को देखा। (He saw the signature to.)
Correct: उसने हस्ताक्षर देखा। (He saw the signature.)
Correct: मुझे हस्ताक्षर करने की ज़रूरत है। (I need to do the signature / I need to sign.)
- 'दस्तखत' (dastkhat)
- 'दस्तखत' is a very common synonym for 'हस्ताक्षर'. It also means 'signature' and is frequently used in both formal and informal contexts. In everyday speech, 'दस्तखत' might even be more prevalent than 'हस्ताक्षर'. Both are derived from Persian. The choice between them often comes down to personal preference or regional dialect, though 'हस्ताक्षर' can sometimes carry a slightly more formal or official tone.
- Comparison:
- - **हस्ताक्षर (hastākshar):** Formal, Sanskrit origin, 'hand-written letter'.
- - **दस्तखत (dastkhat):** Common, Persian origin, widely used in all registers.
- Example:
- - 'कृपया इस फॉर्म पर हस्ताक्षर करें।' (Please sign this form.)
- - 'कृपया इस फॉर्म पर दस्तखत करें।' (Please sign this form.)
दोनों शब्द 'signature' के लिए इस्तेमाल होते हैं, लेकिन 'दस्तखत' ज़्यादा आम है।
- 'चिह्न' (chihn) - Mark
- 'चिह्न' means 'mark', 'sign', or 'symbol'. While a signature is a type of mark, 'चिह्न' is a much broader term. You wouldn't typically use 'चिह्न' to refer to a signature on a legal document, as it lacks the specificity and formality. However, in certain contexts, a unique personal mark could be loosely referred to as a 'चिह्न'.
- Comparison:
- - **हस्ताक्षर (hastākshar):** Specifically a person's written name as a signature.
- - **चिह्न (chihn):** A general mark, symbol, or sign.
- Example:
- - 'यह चिह्न खतरे का संकेत है।' (This sign indicates danger.)
- - 'यह मेरा हस्ताक्षर है।' (This is my signature.)
- 'मोहर' (mohar) - Stamp/Seal
- 'मोहर' refers to a stamp or a seal, which is an impression made by a device, often used for official authentication. While both signatures and seals are used for authentication, they are distinct. A signature is a handwritten mark, whereas a seal is an imprint. You might see both on important documents.
- Comparison:
- - **हस्ताक्षर (hastākshar):** A person's name written by hand.
- - **मोहर (mohar):** An official stamp or seal.
- Example:
- - 'इस पत्र पर हस्ताक्षर और मोहर दोनों होने चाहिए।' (This letter must have both a signature and a seal.)
How Formal Is It?
Le savais-tu ?
The concept of a unique personal mark for authentication has ancient roots. In ancient India, seals made of clay or metal were also used, but personal writing was also common for important documents. The word itself reflects this ancient practice of using the hand to create a mark of identity.

Comment l'utiliser
High in formal contexts, medium overall due to synonym 'दस्तखत'.
-
Using 'हस्ताक्षर' when the verb 'to sign' is intended.
→
The noun is 'हस्ताक्षर' (signature), and the verb phrase is 'हस्ताक्षर करना' (to sign).
Learners might say 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर' when they mean 'I need to sign'. The correct way is 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर करना है' (I have to sign) or 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर चाहिए' (I need a signature).
-
Using 'हस्ताक्षर' in very informal situations.
→
Use 'दस्तखत' or simpler confirmation phrases in informal contexts.
'हस्ताक्षर' is a formal word. In casual conversation, it can sound out of place. For instance, asking a friend to sign something would more naturally use 'दस्तखत कर दे' rather than 'हस्ताक्षर कर दे'.
-
Confusing 'हस्ताक्षर' (signature) with 'मोहर' (seal/stamp).
→
'हस्ताक्षर' is a handwritten name; 'मोहर' is an imprint from a stamp.
These are different forms of authentication. A document might require both, but they are not interchangeable. 'हस्ताक्षर' is personal, 'मोहर' is often institutional.
-
Incorrect pronunciation, especially the 'ksh' sound or aspiration of 'h'.
→
Pronounce 'ह' with aspiration and 'क्ष' as 'ksha'.
Mispronouncing these sounds can make the word difficult to understand or sound incorrect to native speakers. Listening and practicing are key.
-
Grammatical errors in sentence construction.
→
Ensure correct use of verb conjugations and postpositions.
For example, saying 'उसने हस्ताक्षर को देखा' is incorrect. It should be 'उसने हस्ताक्षर देखा' (He saw the signature), treating 'हस्ताक्षर' as a direct object.
Astuces
Mastering the 'ksh' Sound
The 'क्ष' (ksha) in 'हस्ताक्षर' is a conjunct consonant. Practice saying 'k' followed immediately by 'sh'. It's like the 'x' in 'fox', but formed by combining 'k' and 'sh' sounds. Listen to native speakers and repeat.
Formal vs. Informal
Remember that 'हस्ताक्षर' is generally formal. While 'दस्तखत' is a common synonym, use 'हस्ताक्षर' when dealing with official documents, legal matters, or when you want to convey a sense of formality and seriousness.
Verb Collocation
The most common verb used with 'हस्ताक्षर' is 'करना' (karnā - to do/make). So, 'हस्ताक्षर करना' means 'to sign'. Ensure you conjugate 'करना' correctly based on tense and subject.
Hand + Letter = Signature
Break down the word: 'हस्त' (hand) + 'अक्षर' (letter). Visualize your hand writing letters to form your signature. This etymology helps remember the meaning.
Listen for Official Language
You'll hear 'हस्ताक्षर' most often in official settings like banks, government offices, or when people discuss contracts. Pay attention to these contexts to reinforce your understanding.
Know Your Synonyms
Be aware of 'दस्तखत' as a very common synonym. While 'हस्ताक्षर' is formal, 'दस्तखत' is used more broadly. Knowing both will enhance your comprehension and fluency.
Subject-Verb Agreement
When 'हस्ताक्षर' is the subject or object, ensure it agrees with the verb and any other grammatical elements in the sentence. For example, 'मेरे हस्ताक्षर' (my signatures - plural implied by context) would take a plural verb if the action applies to multiple signatures.
Respect for Signatures
In Indian culture, signatures are treated with respect and are considered a serious commitment. Understanding this cultural context will help you appreciate the importance of 'हस्ताक्षर'.
Related Terms
Learn related terms like 'हस्ताक्षरकर्ता' (signatory), 'जाली हस्ताक्षर' (forged signature), and 'डिजिटल हस्ताक्षर' (digital signature) to expand your vocabulary around this concept.

Mémorise-le
Moyen mnémotechnique
Think of 'हस्त' (hast) sounding like 'hustle' and 'अक्षर' (akshar) like 'action'. You have to 'hustle' to get the 'action' of signing done for important documents. Or, 'हस्त' (hand) + 'अक्षर' (letter) = a letter made by your hand.
Association visuelle
Imagine a hand holding a pen, meticulously writing a name on a document. The letters are distinct and personal, like a unique fingerprint of the hand.
Word Web
Défi
Try to write your own signature in Hindi script (if you can) or imagine what a Hindi speaker's signature might look like. Practice saying 'यह मेरा हस्ताक्षर है' (This is my signature) and 'कृपया हस्ताक्षर करें' (Please sign).
Origine du mot
The word 'हस्ताक्षर' is of Sanskrit origin. It is a compound word formed from 'हस्त' (hasta) meaning 'hand' and 'अक्षर' (akshar) meaning 'letter' or 'syllable'.
Sens originel : Literally translated, it means 'hand-letter' or 'hand-written letter', which perfectly describes a signature.
Indo-Aryan (Sanskrit)Contexte culturel
When discussing signatures, be mindful of privacy and security. Signatures are personal identification and should be handled with care. Discussions about forged signatures ('जाली हस्ताक्षर') should be approached with sensitivity to legal implications.
In English-speaking countries, signatures are also fundamental for legal documents, contracts, and personal identification. The concept of a unique, handwritten signature as a mark of authenticity is universal. While digital signatures are gaining traction, the traditional handwritten signature remains a strong symbol of personal agreement.

Questions fréquentes
10 questions'हस्ताक्षर' and 'दस्तखत' are direct synonyms for 'signature' in Hindi. Both are widely understood and used. 'हस्ताक्षर' originates from Sanskrit ('hand-letter') and can sometimes sound slightly more formal or official, especially in legal or governmental contexts. 'दस्तखत' has Persian origins and is very common in everyday speech and writing, used in both formal and informal situations. You can generally use them interchangeably, but 'हस्ताक्षर' might be preferred for very official documents.
Traditionally, 'हस्ताक्षर' refers to a person's name written by hand in their unique style. However, with the advent of technology, the concept has expanded to include digital signatures, which are electronic forms of authentication. But when someone says 'हस्ताक्षर' without further qualification, they usually mean a handwritten signature.
No, 'हस्ताक्षर' specifically means a signature, which is a handwritten mark. The word for a stamp or seal is 'मोहर' (mohar). While both are used for authentication, they are distinct concepts. Documents may require both a signature and a seal.
The act of signing is expressed using the verb phrase 'हस्ताक्षर करना' (hastākshar karnā). For example, 'मुझे हस्ताक्षर करना है' (Mujhe hastākshar karnā hai) means 'I have to sign'.
If your signature is unclear or illegible, it might not be accepted as valid, especially on official documents. This is why it's important to ensure your signature is clear and recognizable. In such cases, you might be asked to provide a clearer signature or an alternative form of identification.
Yes, there are handwritten signatures, digital signatures (electronic authentication), and sometimes thumb or fingerprints are used as an alternative when a person cannot write their name. However, 'हस्ताक्षर' primarily refers to the handwritten name.
While 'हस्ताक्षर' is generally formal, it can be used in neutral contexts. In truly informal settings among close friends, people might use the English word 'sign' or the more common Hindi synonym 'दस्तखत', or even simpler confirmation phrases. Using 'हस्ताक्षर' in a very casual chat might sound overly formal.
A signatory is called a 'हस्ताक्षरकर्ता' (hastāksharkartā) in Hindi. This is formed by combining 'हस्ताक्षर' (signature) and 'कर्ता' (kartā - doer/agent).
Yes, signatures can be forged, which is called 'जाली हस्ताक्षर' (jāli hastākshar). The authenticity of signatures is often verified, especially in legal and financial matters, sometimes with the help of forensic experts.
'हस्ताक्षर' comes from Sanskrit. It's a compound word made from 'हस्त' (hasta), meaning 'hand', and 'अक्षर' (akshar), meaning 'letter' or 'syllable'. So, it literally means 'hand-letter', referring to a letter written by hand.
