चुभोना 30초 만에
- Transitive verb meaning to prick or pierce.

- Used physically (sewing, medical) and metaphorically (insults).
- Often takes the 'ne' particle in past tense.
The Hindi verb चुभोना (chubhonā) is a sophisticated and versatile term primarily categorized as a transitive verb. At its most literal level, it refers to the act of piercing, pricking, or thrusting a sharp-pointed object into a surface or skin. Unlike its intransitive counterpart 'चुभना' (chubhnā), which describes the sensation of something being sharp or the act of something pricking you on its own, 'चुभोना' implies an external agent performing the action with intent or force. If a thorn pricks your finger by accident, you use 'चुभना'; if you intentionally stick a needle into a piece of fabric, you use 'चुभोना'. This distinction is crucial for C1-level learners to master as it reflects the causal relationship in Hindi grammar.
- Physical Application
- This word is most commonly found in medical, domestic, and gardening contexts. A nurse 'चुभोना' (inserts/pricks) a needle into a patient's arm for a blood test. A tailor 'चुभोना' (thrusts) a needle through heavy denim. A gardener might accidentally 'चुभोना' (pierce) their skin with a rose thorn while pruning. The essence is the penetration of a sharp point into a soft or semi-solid medium.
दर्जी ने सावधानी से कपड़े में सुई चुभोई ताकि वह बारीक कढ़ाई कर सके। (The tailor carefully pricked the needle into the cloth to do fine embroidery.)
- Metaphorical and Emotional Usage
- Beyond the physical, 'चुभोना' is a powerful tool in Hindi literature and daily rhetoric for describing hurtful speech. When someone makes a sarcastic remark or a 'taunt' (ताना), they are said to be pricking the listener with their words. This usage evokes the image of words acting as sharp needles that cause internal, emotional pain. It describes a calculated attempt to hurt someone's feelings or ego.
उसकी कड़वी बातों ने मेरे दिल में काँटे जैसे चुभो दिए। (His bitter words pricked my heart like thorns.)
In social settings, 'चुभोना' can also describe annoying or persistent behavior. Someone who keeps 'poking' or 'prodding' you with questions might be described as using this verb figuratively. It carries a connotation of discomfort. In historical or mythological contexts, it is used for weapons like arrows (बाण) or spears (भाला) being thrust into enemies. Understanding 'चुभोना' requires recognizing the intentionality behind the sharp contact, whether it is for a constructive purpose like sewing or a destructive one like insulting someone.
Using चुभोना correctly requires an understanding of its transitive nature. The basic sentence structure is: [Subject] + [Object] + [Instrument/Location + में/से] + [चुभोना]. Because it is a transitive verb, in the past tense (Perfective aspect), the subject takes the 'ने' (ne) particle, and the verb agrees with the object in gender and number.
- Grammatical Structure: The 'Ne' Rule
- Since 'चुभोना' is transitive, when you say 'I pricked a needle', you must say 'मैंने सुई चुभोई' (Maine sui chubhoi). Notice how 'chubhoi' agrees with the feminine noun 'sui' (needle). If you were pricking a thorn (काँटा - masculine), it would be 'मैंने काँटा चुभोया' (Maine kanta chubhoya).
बच्चे ने खिलौने में पिन चुभो दी। (The child pricked a pin into the toy.)
- Direct vs. Indirect Objects
- You can use 'चुभोना' with the object being the sharp item (pricking a needle) or the object being the person/thing being pricked (pricking the skin). However, it is most common to mention what is being thrust. If you say 'उसने मुझे सुई चुभोई', it means 'He pricked a needle into me'. The 'me' (mujhe) is the target, and 'sui' is the instrument.
डॉक्टर ने मरीज़ की बाह में इंजेक्शन चुभोया। (The doctor pricked the injection into the patient's arm.)
When using it metaphorically, the object is usually 'बातें' (words) or 'ताना' (taunt). For example, 'वह हमेशा चुभने वाली बातें कहता है' (He always says pricking/hurtful things) uses the related adjective 'चुभने वाली', but 'उसने अपनी बातों के तीर चुभोए' (He thrust the arrows of his words) uses the verb directly. At the C1 level, you should experiment with using 'चुभोना' to describe psychological impact. For instance, 'अपनी तीखी टिप्पणियों से उसने सबके स्वाभिमान में सुइयाँ चुभो दीं' (With his sharp comments, he pricked needles into everyone's self-respect).
The word चुभोना resonates across various layers of Indian life, from the mundane to the highly dramatic. You are likely to encounter it in specific environments where precision and sharp objects are involved. Understanding these contexts helps in grasping the 'vibe' of the word, which ranges from clinical and professional to hostile and aggressive.
- The Medical and Beauty Industry
- In hospitals (अस्पताल) or clinics, you will hear nurses or doctors explaining procedures. While they might use the formal 'लगाना' (lagana - to apply/give) for an injection, a patient might describe the experience using 'चुभोना' to emphasize the sharp sensation. Similarly, in a tattoo parlor or during acupuncture, the verb 'चुभोना' accurately describes the repetitive action of needles entering the skin.
घबराओ मत, मैं बस एक छोटी सी सुई चुभोऊँगा। (Don't worry, I will just prick a small needle.)
- Tailoring and Handicrafts
- India has a rich culture of embroidery (जैसे ज़रदोज़ी, चिकनकारी). Instructors teaching these crafts will use 'चुभोना' to explain how to move the needle through the cloth. You'll hear phrases like 'सुई को नीचे से चुभोकर ऊपर लाओ' (Prick the needle from below and bring it up). Here, the word is purely technical and lacks any negative connotation.
कढ़ाई करते समय सुई को कपड़े में बहुत गहराई तक मत चुभोना। (While embroidering, don't prick the needle too deep into the cloth.)
Finally, in daily domestic life, parents might warn children: 'पेंसिल मत चुभोओ!' (Don't prick with the pencil!). In literature, poets use 'चुभोना' to describe the pain of unrequited love or the sharp memories of the past. The word is ubiquitous because it bridges the gap between a simple physical action and a complex emotional reaction.
Mastering चुभोना involves navigating the nuances of Hindi's transitive/intransitive system. Even advanced learners often stumble over these specific points. Because 'चुभोना' (to prick) and 'चुभना' (to be pricked) look and sound similar, they are frequently interchanged incorrectly.
- Mistake 1: Confusing Transitive and Intransitive
- The most common error is saying 'मुझे सुई चुभोई' when you mean 'The needle pricked me'. If the needle pricked you on its own (like you sat on it), you should use 'चुभना' (मुझे सुई चुभी). If a person did it to you, you use 'चुभोना' (उसने मुझे सुई चुभोई). Remember: 'Chubh-na' is the sensation; 'Chubho-na' is the action by an agent.
Incorrect: काँटा मेरे पैर में चुभोया। (Correct: काँटा मेरे पैर में चुभ गया - The thorn got pricked in my foot.)
- Mistake 2: Incorrect Postposition Usage
- Learners often forget to use 'में' (in) or 'से' (with/from) correctly. You prick a needle *into* (में) something. If you say 'उसने सुई को मेज़ चुभोया', it's grammatically incomplete. It should be 'उसने सुई को मेज़ *में* चुभोया'. The target of the pricking almost always requires 'में'.
ध्यान रहे: 'उसने मुझे ताना चुभोया' is less common than 'उसने मुझे ताना मारा', but if you use 'चुभोना', it implies a deeper, more lingering sting.
Another mistake is using 'चुभोना' for large weapons like swords. For a sword or a large knife, the verb 'घोंपना' (ghompna - to plunge/stab) is more appropriate. 'चुभोना' is reserved for smaller, pointier objects like pins, needles, thorns, or small splinters. Using 'चुभोना' for a sword might sound unintentionally humorous or minimize the severity of the action in a formal context.
To reach C1 proficiency, you must distinguish चुभोना from its synonyms. Hindi has several words for 'piercing' or 'poking', each with a specific nuance of force, depth, and object size. Choosing the right one makes your Hindi sound more natural and precise.
- चुभोना vs. कोंचना (Konchna)
- 'कोंचना' implies poking or prodding, often repeatedly or with a blunt-ish point. While 'चुभोना' focuses on the penetration of a sharp point, 'कोंचना' focuses on the act of prodding to get attention or to annoy. You might 'कोंच' someone with your elbow, but you 'चुभो' them with a needle.
- चुभोना vs. छेदना (Chedna)
- 'छेदना' means to pierce all the way through or to make a hole. If you are getting your ears pierced, the word used is 'छेदना' or 'बिंधवाना'. 'चुभोना' doesn't necessarily mean the object went all the way through; it just means it was pricked in.
कान छेदना (To pierce ears) vs. सुई चुभोना (To prick a needle).
- चुभोना vs. घोंपना (Ghompna)
- This is a matter of scale. 'घोंपना' is used for large, violent actions involving knives, daggers, or swords. It implies a 'stabbing' motion with significant force. 'चुभोना' is much smaller in scale—think of a pinprick vs. a stab wound.
In summary, use 'चुभोना' for needles and thorns, 'कोंचना' for annoying pokes, 'छेदना' for making holes, and 'घोंपना' for violent stabbings. By selecting the correct verb, you convey the exact physical nature of the action and the intensity of the experience.

팁
The Transitive Secret
Always identify the 'doer'. If someone is actively pushing the sharp object, use 'chubhona'. This is the golden rule for C1 learners.
Scale Matters
Use 'chubhona' for needles, 'ghompna' for knives, and 'chechna' for holes. Getting the scale right makes you sound like a pro.
Word Arrows
When writing about arguments, use 'baaton ke teer chubhona'. It's a classic Hindi metaphor that adds depth to your descriptions.
Medical Context
In an Indian hospital, if you say 'sui mat chubhona', everyone will understand you are afraid of the injection.
Aspirate the 'Bh'
Make sure to blow out a little air when saying the 'bho' part. It distinguishes the word from other similar sounds.
Agreement Check
In the sentence 'Usne sui chubhoi', the 'i' at the end of 'chubhoi' is there because 'sui' is feminine. Don't forget this!
Context Clues
If you hear 'kanta' or 'sui', listen for 'chubha' (it pricked) vs 'chubhoya' (someone pricked it).
Safety First
In instructions, 'chubhona' is often preceded by 'savdhani se' (carefully).
Swap for Variety
In literary contexts, try 'bedhna' instead of 'chubhona' for a more sophisticated feel.
The Bone Prick
Remember 'Chew-Bone-Ah'. Chewing a sharp bone pricks your mouth. Chubhona!
암기하기
기억법
Imagine a 'Chew-Bone' (Chubhona). If you try to chew a sharp bone, it will 'prick' your gums. Chubhona = Prick.
시각적 연상

Word Web
챌린지
Try to use 'chubhona' in three different ways today: once for a needle, once for a thorn, and once for a sarcastic comment you heard.
어원
Derived from the Sanskrit root 'कष्' (kaṣ) or more directly from the Prakrit 'चुब्भ' (cubbha). It is related to the concept of piercing or irritating.
원래 의미: To penetrate with a sharp point or to cause irritation.
Indo-Aryan문화적 맥락
Be careful when using it metaphorically; it implies a deliberate attempt to cause pain. It is a strong word for an insult.
Equivalent to 'to needle someone' or 'to prick', but 'chubhona' is used more often for physical medical injections than 'prick' is in common US English.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, 'chubhona' is very commonly used to describe the act of a needle entering the skin during an injection, though 'injection lagana' is more formal.
In many Hindi dialects, they are used as synonyms. However, 'chubhona' is often preferred in standard Hindi for the transitive act of thrusting a point into something.
Technically yes, if you are just pricking the surface, but for a stabbing motion, 'ghompna' is the correct and more common word.
Not at all. In sewing, embroidery, and medical contexts, it is a neutral, necessary action. It only becomes negative when used to describe hurting someone's feelings or accidental injury.
You would use the intransitive form: 'Mujhe sui chubh gayi'. If you want to say someone pricked you: 'Usne mujhe sui chubhoi'.
It depends on the object. For a masculine object (kanta), it is 'chubhoya'. For a feminine object (sui), it is 'chubhoi'.
Yes, it is a favorite of poets to describe the 'sting' of love, memories, or social injustice.
'Konchna' or 'j जगाना' is better. 'Chubhona' implies using something sharp, which might be too painful for just waking someone up!
No, that would be 'sui mein dhaga pirona' (to thread a needle). 'Chubhona' is sticking the needle into the cloth.
Yes, in the past tense (Perfective aspect), because it is a transitive verb. Example: 'Maine sui chubhoi'.

Summary
'चुभोना' is the active act of pricking. If you are using a needle to sew or a doctor is giving an injection, this is the word you need. Example: 'उसने सुई चुभोई' (He pricked the needle).
- Transitive verb meaning to prick or pierce.
- Requires a sharp object and an agent.
- Used physically (sewing, medical) and metaphorically (insults).
- Often takes the 'ne' particle in past tense.
The Transitive Secret
Always identify the 'doer'. If someone is actively pushing the sharp object, use 'chubhona'. This is the golden rule for C1 learners.
Scale Matters
Use 'chubhona' for needles, 'ghompna' for knives, and 'chechna' for holes. Getting the scale right makes you sound like a pro.
Word Arrows
When writing about arguments, use 'baaton ke teer chubhona'. It's a classic Hindi metaphor that adds depth to your descriptions.
Medical Context
In an Indian hospital, if you say 'sui mat chubhona', everyone will understand you are afraid of the injection.
