意味
Something that costs no money.
文化的背景
In Marathi culture, offering water to anyone who comes to your door is a standard practice. You never call this 'mophat' (free); it is simply 'atithya' (hospitality). During festivals like Ganesh Chaturthi, many 'Mandals' provide 'Prasad' or food to devotees. This is always free, but the word 'Mophat' is rarely used on signs; instead, they use 'Prasad' or 'Bhandara', implying a spiritual gift. In Indian politics, the term 'Revadi culture' (free sweets culture) is often used to describe political parties promising 'mophat' electricity or water to win votes. This is a hot topic of debate in Marathi news. In cities like Mumbai and Pune, social workers set up 'Panyapois' in summer. These are earthen pots of cold water available to anyone for free. It is a highly respected social service.
The Safe Choice
If you are unsure which word for 'free' to use, always pick 'मोफत'. It is never wrong or offensive.
Avoid 'Phukat' in Business
Never tell a business partner their service is 'phukat'. It sounds like you don't value their work.

Compound it!
Pair it with 'मिळवणे' (to get) to sound like a pro: 'हे मोफत कसं मिळवायचं?' (How to get this for free?)
The 'Extra' Culture
In local markets, asking for a little 'extra' (like coriander or chilies) for free is common. Use 'मोफत' or just ask 'जास्तीचे मिळेल का?'

よくある質問
10 問No. For 'Free Speech', use 'भाषण स्वातंत्र्य' (Bhashan Swatantrya). 'Mophat' is only for cost.
No, you cannot say a person is 'mophat'. If you mean they are 'available', use 'रिकामे' (rikame).
'Mophat' is common and neutral. 'Vinamulya' is formal and Sanskrit-based, often seen in writing.
Yes, but it originated from Persian 'Muft'. It is now a fully integrated Marathi word.
You say 'Ek-var ek mophat' (एकवर एक मोफत).
Not always. Between close friends, it's fine. But in a shop, 'Mophat' is better.
No. It is an invariant adjective. 'Mophat pishvi' (free bag) and 'Mophat amba' (free mango) are both correct.
Rarely. 'Phukat' is usually used for 'useless'. 'Mophat' almost always refers to price.
It is spelled म + ो (Mo) + फ (Pha) + त (Ta) = मोफत.
