解説 बरात in your Level:

At the A1 level, you should learn 'बरात' as a basic noun related to family and celebrations. Think of it as 'the groom's party' that goes to the wedding. You will see this word in simple picture books about Indian culture. At this stage, just focus on identifying the word and knowing it is a feminine noun. You can use it in very simple sentences like 'यह बरात है' (This is a wedding procession) or 'बरात आई है' (The wedding procession has come). It is a good word to learn alongside other family words like 'भाई' (brother), 'शादी' (wedding), and 'दूल्हा' (groom). Even at this basic level, knowing that 'बरात' is feminine is important so you don't say 'आया' (came-masculine). You can practice by pointing at a picture of a groom on a horse and saying 'बरात'. It is one of the most exciting words in Hindi because it represents music and dancing. Try to remember the sound: 'buh-RAAT'. Don't worry about the complex cultural rituals yet; just know that when you see a lot of people dancing in the street with a groom, it is a 'बरात'.

For example, 'मेरे दोस्त की बरात कल जाएगी' (My friend's wedding procession will go tomorrow).

At this level, you should also learn the word 'बराती' (barātī), which refers to the people in the procession. You might say 'बरात में बहुत लोग हैं' (There are many people in the procession). You should also be able to understand simple questions about a 'बरात', such as 'बरात कब आएगी?' (When will the procession arrive?). This is a great word for practicing feminine verb endings.

You can also start to recognize the word in Bollywood songs, which often celebrate the 'बरात'.

At the B1 level, you should be comfortable using 'बरात' in various tenses and with different postpositions. You can describe the atmosphere of the procession: 'बरात में सब लोग नाच रहे थे' (Everyone was dancing in the procession). You can also use it to explain delays: 'बरात की वजह से रास्ता बंद था' (The road was closed because of the wedding procession). At this stage, you should understand the distinction between 'बरात' and other types of processions like 'जुलूस'.

Your sentences should become more complex, using conjunctions like 'क्योंकि' (because) and 'इसलिए' (therefore). For example, 'बरात देर से पहुँची क्योंकि ट्रैफिक बहुत था' (The procession arrived late because there was a lot of traffic). This level requires a better grasp of the feminine gender agreement in longer sentences.

बरात 30秒で

बरात is the groom's wedding procession in Hindi culture, involving family, friends, and music.
It is a feminine noun, so use feminine verb endings like 'आई' or 'गई'.
The word comes from Sanskrit 'Varayatra' and is a central part of North Indian weddings.
Participants are called 'Barati', and the event is known for its loud brass bands and street dancing.

The Hindi word बरात (barāt) is a culturally dense noun that refers to the groom's wedding procession. In the context of Indian weddings, specifically within North Indian Hindu, Sikh, and Muslim traditions, the wedding is not merely a ceremony between two individuals but a grand social event involving two families. The barāt represents the formal journey taken by the groom, his family, and his friends from his home to the bride's home or the wedding venue. This is not a quiet walk; it is a high-energy, musical, and celebratory parade that serves as a public announcement of the impending union. Historically, the barāt was a way for the groom's village to show their strength and joy as they traveled to another village to bring back a new member. Today, it remains the most vibrant part of the wedding festivities, often featuring a brass band, traditional drums like the dhol, and synchronized dancing in the streets.

Grammatical Gender: Feminine (स्त्रीलिंग). This is a crucial point for learners because many collective nouns in Hindi can be confusing. Even though a barāt consists largely of men (historically), the word itself is feminine. Therefore, you say 'बरात आ रही है' (The procession is coming) rather than 'आ रहा है'.
Social Significance: The size and splendor of the barāt are often seen as a status symbol. It includes the groom's immediate family, extended relatives, and close friends, all known as barātī. The procession is characterized by the groom riding a decorated horse (ghodi), an elephant, or a luxury car, while the guests dance ahead of him to the tunes of popular Bollywood songs.

कल शाम को हमारे पड़ोस में एक बहुत बड़ी बरात निकली। (Yesterday evening, a very large wedding procession passed through our neighborhood.)

The term is used exclusively in the context of weddings. You would never use barāt for a political march or a religious parade (which would be called a julūs or yātrā). The arrival of the barāt at the venue is marked by the milnī ceremony, where the bride's family welcomes the groom's family with garlands and gifts. Understanding this word requires an appreciation of the 'Big Fat Indian Wedding' culture, where the journey to the venue is just as important as the ceremony itself. For a learner, using this word correctly demonstrates a deep grasp of Indian social fabric. It is also important to note the spelling variation: while 'बरात' is the standard dictionary spelling, 'बारात' (bārāt) is frequently seen in colloquial writing and signage. Both are understood, but 'बरात' follows the phonetics of the Sanskrit root more closely.

दूल्हा अपनी बरात के साथ द्वार पर पहुँच गया है। (The groom has reached the doorstep with his wedding procession.)

Etymological Connection: The word originates from the Sanskrit word 'Varayātrā' (वरयात्रा), where 'Vara' means groom and 'Yātrā' means journey or procession. This explains why the focus of the barāt is entirely on the groom's side of the family.

बरात में नाचने का अपना ही मज़ा है। (There is a unique joy in dancing in a wedding procession.)

Using बरात correctly in a sentence requires attention to its gender and its role as a collective noun. Because it is feminine, all accompanying adjectives and verbs must reflect this. For example, if you want to say 'The procession was long,' you would say 'बरात लंबी थी' (Barāt lambī thī). If you used the masculine 'लंबा था' (lambā thā), it would be grammatically incorrect. This word often acts as the subject of verbs related to movement, such as 'आना' (to come), 'जाना' (to go), 'निकलना' (to set out/emerge), and 'पहुँचना' (to arrive).

क्या बरात अभी तक नहीं आई? (Has the wedding procession not arrived yet?)

In complex sentences, बरात can be used with postpositions. When a postposition like 'में' (in), 'को' (to), or 'के साथ' (with) is used, the word itself doesn't change because it is a consonant-ending feminine noun, but the surrounding words might. For instance, 'बरात के स्वागत की तैयारी करो' (Prepare for the welcome of the procession). Here, 'स्वागत' is masculine, so 'के' is used, but it refers to the welcome *of* the barāt. Another common structure is using 'बरात' with the verb 'ले जाना' (to take/lead), referring to the groom or his father leading the party.

Common Verb Pairings: 1. बरात चढ़ना: This is a specific idiomatic usage meaning the procession has begun its formal march. 2. बरात विदा होना: This refers to the procession leaving the bride's home after the wedding is over, usually with the bride (Vidai).

गाँव वाले बरात का इंतज़ार कर रहे थे। (The villagers were waiting for the wedding procession.)

When discussing the scale of the wedding, बरात is the central noun. You might hear people ask, 'बरात कहाँ से आएगी?' (Where will the procession come from?) or 'बरात में कौन-कौन जा रहा है?' (Who all are going in the procession?). In modern Hindi, especially in urban settings, you might also see the word used in metaphorical senses in literature to describe any large, noisy group, though this is less common than its literal wedding meaning. In movies, the 'entry' of the barāt is a major cinematic moment, often used to introduce the hero (the groom). Therefore, sentences involving this word often carry a tone of excitement, noise, and celebration.

इतनी शोर-शराबे वाली बरात मैंने पहले कभी नहीं देखी। (I have never seen such a noisy wedding procession before.)

Transitive Usage: While 'बरात' is usually the subject, it can be the object when someone is 'organizing' it. 'पिताजी ने बरात के लिए बस बुक की है' (Father has booked a bus for the procession party).

The word बरात is ubiquitous in Indian daily life, particularly during the 'wedding season' (lagan), which typically falls between November and February, and again in late spring. If you are in India during these months, you will hear this word in almost every household. It is a staple of family discussions, logistics planning, and social gossip. Families spend months debating the details of the barāt—which band to hire, what route the procession should take to avoid traffic, and how many guests (barātīs) should be invited. It is also a word you will hear frequently on the news when celebrity weddings are covered, with reporters providing 'live updates' on the arrival of the barāt.

न्यूज़ चैनल पर दिखाया जा रहा है कि अभिनेता की बरात होटल पहुँच गई है। (The news channel is showing that the actor's wedding procession has reached the hotel.)

Bollywood is perhaps the biggest propagator of the word. Countless movies are centered around weddings, and the barāt is often the climax of the first half or the entire film. Iconic songs like 'Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai' or 'Bole Chudiyan' often feature scenes of a barāt. In fact, there is a whole sub-genre of 'Barat Songs' specifically designed to be played by the brass bands during the procession. If you are watching a Hindi movie and see a group of people dancing behind a man on a horse, you can be certain that the word barāt is about to be mentioned in the dialogue.

In Everyday Conversation: In casual talk, you might hear people complaining about traffic: 'रास्ते में बरात की वजह से बहुत जाम था' (There was a lot of traffic on the way because of a wedding procession). Or when someone is dressed up very formally, a friend might jokingly ask, 'क्या किसी की बरात में जा रहे हो?' (Are you going in someone's wedding procession?).

In rural India, the barāt holds even more traditional weight. It is a moment of pride for the entire village. You will hear elders discussing 'बरात की खातिरदारी' (the hospitality shown to the wedding procession), which is a point of honor for the bride's side. If the hospitality is poor, it becomes a legendary story told for years. Thus, the word is not just a label for a group of people; it carries connotations of honor, joy, and social obligation. In literature and poetry, barāt is sometimes used as a metaphor for a grand arrival or a noisy, chaotic but happy event. In the context of matrimonial ads in newspapers, you might see mentions of 'simple weddings' (no barāt) or 'grand barāt' as per the family's preference.

पुरानी फिल्मों में बरात का दृश्य बहुत भावुक होता था। (In old movies, the scene of the wedding procession used to be very emotional.)

Regional Variations: While 'Barat' is the Hindi/Urdu term, you might hear 'Janyavasam' in the South or 'Bor-Jatri' in Bengal, but 'Barat' is understood across most of India due to the influence of Bollywood and Hindi media.

For English speakers learning Hindi, the most common mistake with बरात is misidentifying its gender. Because the procession is led by a groom and often consists of a 'boys' party,' learners instinctively assume the word is masculine. They might say 'बरात आया' (barāt āyā) or 'बड़ा बरात' (baṛā barāt). However, बरात is strictly feminine. The correct forms are 'बरात आई' (barāt āī) and 'बड़ी बरात' (baṛī barāt). This mistake is very common and can make your Hindi sound 'broken' to native speakers. Always remember: the event is feminine, regardless of who is in it.

गलत: बरात बहुत लंबा था। (Wrong: The procession was very long - masculine.)
सही: बरात बहुत लंबी थी। (Right: The procession was very long - feminine.)

Another frequent error is the confusion between बरात (the procession) and बराती (the wedding guest). Learners often use them interchangeably. If you say 'मैं बरात हूँ' (I am a barāt), you are literally saying 'I am a wedding procession,' which is nonsensical. You should say 'मैं बराती हूँ' (I am a member of the wedding procession) or 'मैं बरात में हूँ' (I am in the wedding procession). Similarly, when referring to the number of people, use 'बराती' for the count of individuals and 'बरात' for the collective unit.

Pronunciation Pitfalls: The first syllable 'ba' is short (schwa sound), and the second syllable 'raat' has a long 'aa'. English speakers often stress the first syllable or make it too long, sounding like 'BAA-raat'. The correct rhythm is 'buh-RAAT'. Also, the 't' at the end is dental (tongue touching the teeth), not alveolar (tongue touching the roof of the mouth) as in English 'bat'.

Contextual misuse is another area to watch out for. Do not use बरात for the bride's arrival. In traditional North Indian culture, the bride does not have a barāt; she is the one who receives it. Using the word for the bride's side can cause confusion about the roles in the wedding. Lastly, avoid using the word for non-wedding processions. If you see a religious parade with idols, call it a 'shobha yatra' or 'julus'. Using barāt for a funeral procession would be a grave cultural and linguistic error, as barāt specifically connotes joy and marriage.

सावधान: बरात केवल शादी के लिए इस्तेमाल होता है। (Caution: 'Barat' is only used for weddings.)

Pluralization: Because it is a feminine noun ending in a consonant, the plural is 'बरातें' (barātēṃ). Learners often forget the nasalization or use masculine plural endings. 'शहर में आज कई बरातें हैं' (There are many wedding processions in the city today).

While बरात is the most common term for a wedding procession, there are several related words that learners should know to expand their vocabulary and understand the nuances of Hindi. The most direct synonym is विवाह-जुलूस (vivāh-julūs), which literally translates to 'wedding procession'. However, this is quite formal and sounds like something you would read in a newspaper report rather than say in conversation. Another term is संया (sanyā), which is more archaic or regional and rarely used in modern urban Hindi.

बरात vs. जुलूस (Julūs): A 'julus' is a general term for any procession, whether political, religious, or protest-related. While a 'barat' is a type of 'julus', you cannot call a political rally a 'barat'. 'Barat' is specific to weddings and implies celebration, music, and a groom.
बरात vs. यात्रा (Yātrā): 'Yatra' means a journey or a pilgrimage. While the 'barat' is a journey, 'yatra' is usually reserved for religious trips (like Char Dham Yatra) or long-distance travels. The root of 'barat' is 'varayatra', but in modern Hindi, they are distinct.

बरात और जुलूस में फर्क होता है; एक खुशी का प्रतीक है, दूसरा अक्सर विरोध का। (There is a difference between a 'barat' and a 'julus'; one is a symbol of joy, the other often of protest.)

In terms of people involved, you have बराती (barātī), the guests in the procession. This is often contrasted with the घराती (gharātī), which refers to the people from the bride's side (the 'house' side). In a wedding, the dialogue often revolves around the interaction between the 'baratis' and the 'gharatis'. Understanding this pair is essential for following wedding-related conversations.

There are also terms for specific parts of the barāt. For example, निकासी (nikāsī) refers specifically to the moment the procession leaves the groom's house. अगवानी (agvānī) refers to the official reception of the barāt by the bride's family. For a learner, focusing on बरात is the priority, but knowing these terms helps in understanding the full sequence of events. In some Urdu-influenced contexts, you might hear बारात pronounced with a heavier 'aa' sound, but the meaning remains identical. When writing, remember that 'बरात' is more common in India, while 'बारात' is also acceptable.

बरात का स्वागत फूलों से किया गया। (The wedding procession was welcomed with flowers.)

Alternative: 'Wedding Party': In English, we say 'wedding party', but 'barat' is much more specific because it refers only to the groom's side and only to the procession part of the day.

How Formal Is It?

In ancient times, the 'varayatra' was a risky journey across villages, so the groom was accompanied by 'protectors' who later became the 'baratis'.

よくある間違い

You are a guest (barati), not the procession itself (barat).
बड़ा बरात → बड़ी बरात
The adjective must match the feminine gender of the noun.

While 'barat ke log' is okay, 'barati' is the more natural one-word term.

Try to describe a 'बरात' you saw in a movie using at least three feminine adjectives.

語源

The word is derived from the Sanskrit 'वरयात्रा' (varayātrā).

元の意味： 'Vara' (groom) + 'Yatra' (journey/procession).

Indo-Aryan.

文化的な背景

Be aware that while joyous, barāts can be very loud and may block public roads; always be respectful if you are a guest.

The closest equivalent is a 'wedding parade', but Western weddings usually don't have a public street procession for the groom.
