मुड़ा
मुड़ा en 30 secondes
- Muṛā means bent, curved, or turned.
- It is an adjective that changes for gender (muṛā/muṛī).
- It often describes physical objects like paper, wire, or roads.
- It is the past participle of the verb 'muṛnā' (to turn).
The Hindi word मुड़ा (muṛā) is a versatile adjective derived from the perfective participle of the verb मुड़ना (muṛnā), which means 'to turn' or 'to bend'. In its adjectival form, it describes the state of an object that is no longer straight, but has been curved, folded, or angled. This can apply to physical objects like a piece of wire, a sheet of paper, or a road. It is a fundamental word for describing physical geometry and state changes in everyday Hindi. When you see a page in a book that has been dog-eared, that corner is मुड़ा हुआ (muṛā huā). If a nail is hit incorrectly and bends, it is described as मुड़ा हुआ कील. The word captures both intentional bending (like a folded shirt) and unintentional damage (like a dented car fender).
- Physical State
- Refers to objects that have lost their original straight or flat form. For example, a bent spoon or a curved pipe.
- Directional Orientation
- Used to describe paths, roads, or tracks that deviate from a straight line. A 'muṛā huā rāstā' is a winding or curved path.
- Paper and Textiles
- Describes folds, creases, or wrinkles in clothes and paper. A 'muṛā huā kāgaz' is a crumpled or folded piece of paper.
मेज का कोना थोड़ा मुड़ा हुआ है। (The corner of the table is slightly bent.)
उसका हाथ कुहनी से मुड़ा था। (His arm was bent at the elbow.)
यह तार मुड़ा हुआ है, इसे सीधा करो। (This wire is bent; straighten it.)
The emotional or metaphorical use of 'muṛā' is less common than 'teḍhā' (crooked/dishonest), but it can sometimes describe a 'turned' mind or a 'bent' logic in literary contexts. However, its primary domain remains the physical world. In engineering or carpentry, 'muṛā' is a standard term to describe materials that are not true to their original linear form. In everyday conversation, you will hear it most often when discussing directions or the condition of household items. It is a neutral word, neither inherently positive nor negative, simply descriptive of a geometric state.
Using मुड़ा effectively requires understanding its inflection and its placement as an adjective. Since it functions as a perfective participle, it often appears with the auxiliary हुआ (huā) to emphasize the current state of the object. For example, 'muṛā huā' explicitly means 'in a bent state'.
- Subject-Verb Agreement
- If describing a masculine singular object like 'pahar' (mountain) or 'rasta' (path), use 'muṛā'. For feminine singular like 'ungli' (finger), use 'muṛī'. For plural like 'pappe' (papers), use 'muṛe'.
- Combining with Adverbs
- You can quantify the degree of bending using words like 'thoṛā' (a little), 'bahut' (very), or 'ekdam' (completely). Example: 'Rasta bahut muṛā huā hai' (The road is very curved).
क्या आपने वह मुड़ा हुआ सिक्का देखा? (Did you see that bent coin?)
उसकी साइकिल का पहिया मुड़ा हुआ है। (The wheel of his bicycle is bent.)
When describing complex shapes, 'muṛā' is often the first word that comes to mind for a Hindi speaker. If you are giving directions and want to describe a sharp turn, you might say 'āge ek muṛā huā moṛ hai' (there is a curved turn ahead). In the context of crafts or DIY, you might instruct someone: 'is taar ko aise muṛā rakho' (keep this wire bent like this). It is also useful in medical contexts to describe a 'bent' limb or a 'curved' spine (though 'teḍhā' or 'jhukā' might also be used depending on the specific condition).
You will encounter मुड़ा in a variety of real-world scenarios. It is ubiquitous in hardware stores, tailoring shops, and during travel. If you are in a shop buying stationery and the paper is damaged, you might complain, 'Yeh kāgaz muṛā huā hai, dūsrā dījiye' (This paper is bent/creased, give me another one). In a mechanical workshop, a mechanic might point to a 'muṛā huā bumper' (bent bumper) on a car.
- Navigation and Travel
- GPS instructions or local guides often use 'muṛā' to describe the geometry of the road. 'Pahāṛī rāste bahut muṛe-tuṛe hote hain' (Mountain roads are very twisted/curved).
- Art and Craft
- Teachers use it to describe origami or metalwork. 'Kāgaz ko muṛā huā chhoṛ do' (Leave the paper bent/folded).
स्टेशन के पास रास्ता थोड़ा मुड़ा हुआ है। (The road near the station is slightly curved.)
मेरी किताब का पन्ना मुड़ा हुआ था। (The page of my book was folded/bent.)
In literature and poetry, 'muṛā' might be used to describe a 'turned' path of life or a 'bent' destiny, though these are more figurative. In news reports, you might hear it during descriptions of accidents, such as 'gaṛī kā lohā burī tarah muṛ gayā' (the car's iron/metal was badly bent). It's also common in sports, like cricket, to describe a 'bent' arm during bowling, which can be a point of technical scrutiny. Overall, it is a practical, everyday word that you will hear whenever the physical shape of something is being discussed.
Learners of Hindi often make a few specific errors when using मुड़ा. The most frequent is failing to change the ending based on the gender of the noun. Because many English adjectives are static, remembering that 'muda' becomes 'mudi' for feminine nouns like 'sarak' (road) or 'chabi' (key) is a common hurdle.
- Confusing Adjective with Verb
- Don't confuse the state 'muṛā' (bent) with the action 'muṛnā' (to turn). If you say 'Main muṛā', it means 'I turned' (past tense verb), not 'I am bent' (adjective).
- Overusing 'Teḍhā'
- While 'teḍhā' also means crooked or bent, 'muṛā' specifically implies a fold or a turn. Using 'teḍhā' for a folded paper sounds slightly off; 'muṛā' is more accurate for a fold.
Incorrect: यह सड़क मुड़ा है। (Yeh sarak muṛā hai.)
Correct: यह सड़क मुड़ी है। (Yeh sarak muṛī hai.)
Another mistake is using 'muṛā' for things that are naturally curved, like a circle. 'Muṛā' usually implies that something which *could* be straight is now bent, or it describes a specific turn in a path. For a permanent, natural curve (like a crescent moon), words like 'vakra' or 'gol' are better. Also, be careful with the word 'moṛ' (a turn/noun). 'Muṛā' is the adjective describing the state; 'moṛ' is the physical turn itself. You wouldn't say 'yeh ek muṛā hai', you would say 'yeh rasta muṛā hai' or 'yahan ek moṛ hai'.
Hindi has several words for 'bent' or 'curved', and choosing the right one depends on the context and the degree of the curve. While मुड़ा is general-purpose, these alternatives offer more precision.
- Teḍhā (टेढ़ा)
- Meaning 'crooked' or 'skewed'. It often implies something is not straight in a messy or undesirable way. It can also mean 'difficult' or 'dishonest' metaphorically.
- Jhukā (झुका)
- Meaning 'tilted' or 'stooped'. Used for things leaning downward, like a branch or a person's posture.
- Vakra (वक्र)
- A formal, Sanskritized word for 'curved'. Used in geometry or formal literature (e.g., 'vakra rekha' for a curved line).
- Lachakdār (लचकदार)
- Meaning 'flexible' or 'springy'. Describes something that *can* bend easily without breaking.
Comparison:
1. Taar muṛā hai (The wire is bent - simple state).
2. Taar teḍhā hai (The wire is crooked - messy/misaligned).
In some contexts, you might use 'ghumāvdār' (winding/twisting) for roads instead of 'muṛā'. 'Ghumāvdār' specifically implies many turns, like a spiral or a serpentine mountain pass. For something folded neatly, 'tah kiyā huā' is more specific than 'muṛā'. Understanding these nuances will make your Hindi sound more natural and precise. For instance, you wouldn't call a winding river 'muṛī huī nadi' as often as 'ghumāvdār nadi'. However, if the river takes one sharp turn at a specific point, you could say 'nadi vahān se muṛī huī hai'.
How Formal Is It?
Le savais-tu ?
The retroflex 'ṛ' sound in 'muṛā' is a characteristic feature of Indo-Aryan languages and can be tricky for English speakers as it doesn't exist in English.
Guide de prononciation
- Pronouncing 'ṛ' as a standard English 'r'.
- Making the 'u' sound too long like 'moo'.
- Ignoring the gender inflection (using 'muṛā' for everything).
- Confusing it with 'mūṛ' (foolish/ignorant).
- Not flapping the tongue for the retroflex 'd' sound.
Niveau de difficulté
Easy to recognize once the retroflex 'ṛ' is known.
Requires remembering the dot under the 'ḍ' for 'ṛ'.
The retroflex flap 'ṛ' is difficult for native English speakers.
Can be confused with 'mūṛ' or 'muṛ' if not heard clearly.

Summary
The word 'muṛā' is essential for describing the physical state of objects that are no longer straight. For example, 'muṛā huā chammach' (a bent spoon) clearly describes the item's condition.
- Muṛā means bent, curved, or turned.
- It is an adjective that changes for gender (muṛā/muṛī).
- It often describes physical objects like paper, wire, or roads.
- It is the past participle of the verb 'muṛnā' (to turn).
Gender Check
Always match 'muṛā' with the noun's gender. Sarak (F) -> muṛī; Rasta (M) -> muṛā.
The Flap
The 'ṛ' sound is a flap. Don't let your tongue roll like a Spanish 'r'.
Use Huā
Adding 'huā' after 'muṛā' makes you sound more like a native speaker describing a state.
Money Matters
Avoid giving 'muṛā-tuṛā' notes in shops; people prefer clean, straight currency.
