뜻
A severe emotional or mental disturbance caused by a traumatic event.
문화적 배경
The movie 'Sadma' (1983) is a cult classic where the protagonist suffers from retrograde amnesia due to a 'gahra sadma.' It solidified the term in popular culture as a life-changing event. When visiting a grieving family, it is common to use this phrase to validate their pain. It shows that you recognize the gravity of their loss. With the rise of mental health awareness, 'gahra sadma' is increasingly being linked to the English term 'trauma' in bilingual conversations (Hinglish). In Hindi and Urdu poetry, 'sadma' is often used to describe the pain of unrequited love or separation from the beloved.
Verb Pairing
Always pair 'sadma' with 'lagna' for the person feeling it. It makes you sound much more native than using 'hona'.
Sensitivity
This is a heavy phrase. Use it with empathy. Don't use it to describe someone's situation unless you are sure it was a major tragedy.

자주 묻는 질문
14 질문No, that would be 'achanak hairani' or 'surprise.' 'Sadma' is strictly for negative, painful events.
It is used in both. It has Arabic roots but is fully integrated into modern Hindi.
There isn't a direct single-word opposite, but 'बड़ी खुशी' (Badi khushi) or 'परमानंद' (Parmanand - supreme bliss) are opposites in terms of intensity.
You say 'मैं सदमे में हूँ' (Main sadme mein hoon).
Yes, 'सदमे' (sadme), but it's usually used in the singular to describe a state.
Only if a major disaster has occurred (like the company closing). Otherwise, it's too emotional.
'Dukh' is general sadness; 'sadma' is a sudden, impactful trauma.
It's grammatically possible but rare. People usually say 'thoda jhatka laga'.
In modern Hindi, almost never. It is 99% emotional/mental.
Use the verb 'ubarna' (सदमे से उबरना).
No, 'sadma' alone is strong, but 'gahra' adds emphasis and a literary touch.
No, use 'darr' (fear) or 'khauf'.
Yes, it is considered a formal and respectful way to describe grief.
'Lagna' (लगना).
