A2 noun #1,800 가장 일반적인 9분 분량

शुल्क

shulk 상위 1,800

At the A1 beginner level, the word 'शुल्क' (shulk) is introduced as the formal Hindi word for 'fee'. As a beginner, you might already know the English word 'fees', which is used very often by Hindi speakers in daily conversation. However, when you look at official papers, school notices, or hospital bills, you will see the word 'शुल्क'. It is important to know this word so you can read basic signs and forms. Think of 'शुल्क' as the money you pay when someone does a job for you, like a doctor checking your health, or a school teaching a student. It is not used when you buy an apple or a shirt; for that, we use 'दाम' (daam) or 'कीमत' (keemat). A very common phrase you will hear is 'स्कूल का शुल्क' (school fee). The grammar is simple: 'शुल्क' is a masculine noun. This means you say 'मेरा शुल्क' (my fee) and 'बड़ा शुल्क' (big fee). The verb we use most often with it is 'देना' (to give). So, 'मुझे शुल्क देना है' means 'I have to pay the fee'. Another important word to learn alongside this is 'निःशुल्क' (nishulk), which means 'free' or 'no fee'. You will see 'निःशुल्क' on signs for free parking or free entry. Learning 'शुल्क' helps you understand basic transactional Hindi in formal settings.

At the A2 elementary level, your understanding of 'शुल्क' (shulk) expands beyond just knowing it means 'fee'. You start learning how to combine it with other words to describe exactly what kind of fee you are paying. This is called making compound nouns, and it is very common in Hindi. For example, 'प्रवेश' means entry. If you put them together, 'प्रवेश शुल्क' means 'entry fee'. You will see this at museums, parks, and zoos. 'आवेदन' means application, so 'आवेदन शुल्क' is an application fee, which you need when applying for a job or a visa. At this level, you should also practice using more formal verbs. Instead of just saying 'शुल्क देना' (to give the fee), you can say 'शुल्क जमा करना' (to deposit/submit the fee), which sounds much more natural when talking about schools or banks. You should also be aware of the phrase 'के लिए' (for). You can say 'पार्किंग के लिए शुल्क' (fee for parking). Remember the gender rules: because 'शुल्क' is masculine, sentences will look like 'आपका शुल्क कितना है?' (How much is your fee?). You must avoid the common mistake of treating it as a feminine noun just because the English word 'fees' is treated as feminine in Hindi slang. Mastering these combinations and verbs will make you much more confident when dealing with receptionists, clerks, and officials in India.

At the B1 intermediate level, 'शुल्क' (shulk) becomes a key part of your vocabulary for navigating administrative and professional environments in Hindi. You are no longer just paying basic entry fees; you are dealing with more complex situations. You will encounter terms like 'विलंब शुल्क' (late fee) when you miss a payment deadline, or 'परामर्श शुल्क' (consultation fee) when visiting a specialist doctor. At this stage, you should understand the nuances between different financial terms. You must clearly distinguish 'शुल्क' (payment for a service) from 'किराया' (rent for property or fare for transport), 'जुर्माना' (a punitive fine), and 'कर' (government tax). You will also start reading simple news articles or official letters where 'शुल्क' is used in passive constructions, such as 'शुल्क बढ़ा दिया गया है' (the fee has been increased) or 'शुल्क माफ कर दिया गया है' (the fee has been waived/forgiven). The verb 'माफ करना' (to forgive/waive) is very useful here. Additionally, you will see 'शुल्क' used in adjectives, like 'सशुल्क' (with a fee/paid), which is the opposite of 'निःशुल्क' (free). Being able to read a notice board that says 'पार्किंग सशुल्क है' (Parking is paid) versus 'पार्किंग निःशुल्क है' (Parking is free) is a practical B1 skill. Your sentence structures should now comfortably accommodate these variations.

At the B2 upper-intermediate level, your use of 'शुल्क' (shulk) should be precise, formal, and contextually rich. You are expected to understand and participate in discussions about policies, economics, and administration where this term frequently appears. You will encounter advanced vocabulary like 'सीमा शुल्क' (customs duty), 'पथकर शुल्क' (toll tax), and 'लाइसेंस शुल्क' (license fee). At this level, you should be comfortable reading Hindi newspapers (समाचार पत्र) and understanding editorials that debate the rising costs of education ('शिक्षण शुल्क में वृद्धि') or healthcare ('चिकित्सा शुल्क'). You should be able to express opinions on these topics using appropriate verbs like 'निर्धारित करना' (to determine/fix), 'वसूलना' (to collect/extort - often used when fees are unfairly high), and 'लागू करना' (to implement). For example, 'सरकार ने नया सेवा शुल्क लागू किया है' (The government has implemented a new service charge). You also understand the legal and bureaucratic tone associated with the word. In official contracts or terms of service, 'शुल्क' is the legally binding term for remuneration. You should be adept at using complex sentence structures, such as conditional clauses: 'यदि आप समय पर भुगतान नहीं करते हैं, तो आपको अतिरिक्त विलंब शुल्क देना होगा' (If you do not pay on time, you will have to pay an additional late fee). Your command over 'शुल्क' reflects your ability to operate in professional Hindi environments.

At the C1 advanced level, 'शुल्क' (shulk) is fully integrated into your sophisticated Hindi vocabulary. You understand its etymological roots in Sanskrit, where it historically referred to various forms of state revenue, tolls, or even a bride-price in ancient texts, though its modern usage is strictly transactional for services. You can effortlessly navigate complex bureaucratic jargon and legal documents (दस्तावेज़) where 'शुल्क' is heavily featured. You are familiar with highly specific administrative terms such as 'पंजीकरण शुल्क' (registration fee), 'नवीनीकरण शुल्क' (renewal fee), and 'रखरखाव शुल्क' (maintenance charge). At this level, you can engage in nuanced debates about socio-economic issues, such as the commercialization of education ('शिक्षा का व्यवसायीकरण') and the burden of exorbitant capitation fees ('कैपिटेशन शुल्क') on middle-class families. You understand the subtle connotations of verbs used with 'शुल्क'. For instance, while 'लेना' (to take) is neutral, 'ऐंठना' (to extort) combined with 'शुल्क' implies corruption or greed ('अस्पताल मरीजों से मनमाना शुल्क ऐंठ रहे हैं' - Hospitals are extorting arbitrary fees from patients). You can also comprehend literary or journalistic metaphors where 'शुल्क' might be used abstractly, such as paying a 'fee' or 'price' in terms of effort or sacrifice, though 'कीमत' is more common for abstract sacrifices. Your usage is flawless in gender agreement, register, and stylistic appropriateness.

At the C2 mastery level, your comprehension and application of 'शुल्क' (shulk) are indistinguishable from a highly educated native speaker. You possess a deep understanding of the historical, legal, and cultural dimensions of the word. You recognize its usage in classical Hindi literature and historical texts, where 'शुल्क' might refer to transit duties collected by ancient kingdoms or customary tributes. In contemporary contexts, you can draft formal legal notices, government gazette notifications, or corporate policies detailing fee structures ('शुल्क संरचना') with absolute precision. You are adept at using the most formal and complex derivations, such as 'शुल्क-मुक्ति' (fee exemption) or 'रियायती शुल्क' (concessional fee). You can analyze complex economic texts discussing the impact of 'आयात शुल्क' (import duty) or 'निर्यात शुल्क' (export duty) on international trade. Furthermore, you understand the sociolinguistic interplay between 'शुल्क' and its English counterpart 'fees' in Indian society; you know exactly when to code-switch to 'fees' to build rapport in a casual setting, and when to strictly adhere to 'शुल्क' to establish authority, formality, or legal compliance. Your mastery allows you to play with the language, creating neologisms or understanding highly specialized bureaucratic acronyms and compound words where 'शुल्क' acts as the foundational morpheme.

Means 'fee' or 'charge' for services.
Formal word, often used in writing.
Masculine noun, pairs with 'देना' (to pay).
Do not use for buying physical goods.

The Hindi word 'शुल्क' (shulk) is a highly formal and widely used noun that translates to 'fee', 'charge', 'duty', or 'toll' in English. It represents a mandatory payment made in exchange for a specific service, privilege, professional consultation, or administrative process. Unlike the price of a physical commodity, which is termed 'कीमत' (keemat) or 'दाम' (daam), 'शुल्क' is exclusively used for services, educational access, legal procedures, or memberships. For instance, when you pay for education, it is 'शिक्षण शुल्क' (tuition fee). When you pay a doctor for their time and expertise, it is 'परामर्श शुल्क' (consultation fee). This distinction is crucial for Hindi learners because using 'कीमत' (price) for a doctor's visit sounds highly unnatural and incorrect to a native Hindi speaker. The concept of 'शुल्क' is deeply embedded in formal, academic, and administrative Hindi. In everyday spoken Hindi, especially in urban areas, people often use the English loanword 'फीस' (fees), but 'शुल्क' remains the absolute standard in written communication, news broadcasts, official government documents, school notices, and formal speech. Understanding 'शुल्क' opens the door to comprehending a wide range of compound words used in daily civic life.

Core Definition: A payment made to a professional person, a professional body, or an institution in exchange for advice, services, or administrative processing.

अस्पताल में डॉक्टर का परामर्श शुल्क बहुत अधिक है।

Furthermore, 'शुल्क' is often used as a suffix to create specific types of fees. For example, 'प्रवेश' means entry, so 'प्रवेश शुल्क' becomes entry fee. 'आवेदन' means application, making 'आवेदन शुल्क' the application fee. This modularity makes it a highly productive word in the Hindi language.

Historical Context: Historically derived from Sanskrit, the term originally encompassed various forms of taxes, tolls, and tributes paid to the state or a king, evolving over time to mean specific service charges.

परीक्षा में बैठने के लिए आपको परीक्षा शुल्क जमा करना होगा।

When navigating Indian bureaucracy, you will encounter this word constantly. Whether you are applying for a passport, registering a vehicle, or paying a toll on the highway (पथकर/टोल शुल्क), the word 'शुल्क' will be printed on the receipt.

विलंब से भुगतान करने पर अतिरिक्त शुल्क लगेगा।

The word is masculine in gender, which dictates the grammar of the sentence. You say 'शुल्क देना है' (have to give the fee) and not 'शुल्क देनी है'.

Grammatical Gender: Masculine Noun (पुल्लिंग). Adjectives and verbs must agree with its masculine nature.

क्या इस संग्रहालय में प्रवेश शुल्क लगता है?

वकील ने अपना शुल्क पहले ही ले लिया था।

To truly master this word, one must practice combining it with different prefixes to describe various real-world situations, thereby expanding one's functional vocabulary exponentially.

Using the word 'शुल्क' (shulk) correctly involves understanding its grammatical properties, the verbs it pairs with, and the specific contexts where it is appropriate. As a masculine noun, it dictates the gender of the adjectives and verbs associated with it. You will say 'बड़ा शुल्क' (large fee) and not 'बड़ी शुल्क'. The most common verbs used with 'शुल्क' are 'देना' (to give/pay), 'जमा करना' (to deposit/submit), 'लेना' (to take/charge), and 'लगाना' (to apply/impose).

Verb Pairing: देना (To Pay): Used from the perspective of the person making the payment. 'मुझे स्कूल का शुल्क देना है' (I have to pay the school fee).

छात्रों को समय पर अपना शुल्क जमा करना चाहिए।

When an institution or professional is the subject, the verbs 'लेना' (to take) or 'वसूलना' (to collect/extort, often used negatively) are common. For example, 'डॉक्टर बहुत अधिक शुल्क लेते हैं' (Doctors charge a very high fee).

Verb Pairing: लगाना (To Impose): Used when an authority introduces a new charge or penalty. 'सरकार ने नया कर और शुल्क लगाया है' (The government has imposed a new tax and fee).

बैंक ने चेक बाउंस होने पर जुर्माना शुल्क लगा दिया।

Another critical aspect of using 'शुल्क' is forming compound nouns. Hindi frequently uses 'शुल्क' as the second part of a compound word to specify the type of fee.

Compound Formation: [Purpose/Service Noun] + शुल्क = Specific Fee. Example: शिक्षण (teaching) + शुल्क = शिक्षण शुल्क (tuition fee).

इस फॉर्म के साथ सौ रुपये का आवेदन शुल्क संलग्न करें।

It is also important to note the prepositions used with it. You pay a fee *for* something, which translates to 'के लिए' in Hindi. 'प्रवेश के लिए शुल्क' (fee for entry). However, the compound form 'प्रवेश शुल्क' is much more natural and preferred in writing.

पार्किंग शुल्क प्रति घंटा पचास रुपये है।

बिना शुल्क दिए आप इस सेवा का उपयोग नहीं कर सकते।

By mastering these verb pairings and compound structures, a learner can confidently navigate any formal or transactional conversation in Hindi, ensuring they sound polite, accurate, and culturally attuned to the administrative nuances of the language.

The word 'शुल्क' (shulk) is ubiquitous in formal, administrative, and institutional environments across Hindi-speaking regions. While you might hear the English word 'fees' in casual street conversations, 'शुल्क' is the word you will read on every official sign, document, and receipt. One of the most common places you will encounter this word is in the education sector. Schools, colleges, and universities issue notices regarding 'शिक्षण शुल्क' (tuition fee), 'परीक्षा शुल्क' (examination fee), and 'विलंब शुल्क' (late fee).

Educational Institutions: Used extensively in circulars, fee receipts, and admission brochures to denote various academic charges.

विश्वविद्यालय ने इस वर्ष अपना शिक्षण शुल्क बढ़ा दिया है।

Another major domain is healthcare. Hospitals and clinics display boards indicating the 'परामर्श शुल्क' (consultation fee) of different doctors. Diagnostic centers will list the 'जांच शुल्क' (testing fee).

Healthcare Facilities: Used on hospital reception desks, doctor's prescription pads, and billing departments to outline the cost of medical services.

आपातकालीन कक्ष का शुल्क सामान्य ओपीडी से अलग होता है।

You will also hear and see this word frequently in government offices and legal settings. When applying for a driving license, passport, or any government certificate, you must pay an 'आवेदन शुल्क' (application fee). Lawyers charge a 'कानूनी शुल्क' (legal fee).

Government & Legal: Essential vocabulary for interacting with bureaucracy, paying taxes, or securing legal representation.

पासपोर्ट नवीनीकरण के लिए निर्धारित शुल्क ऑनलाइन जमा करें।

Furthermore, tourism and entertainment venues utilize this term. Museums, national parks, and historical monuments have a 'प्रवेश शुल्क' (entry fee).

विदेशी पर्यटकों के लिए ताज महल का प्रवेश शुल्क अधिक है।

सदस्यता शुल्क का भुगतान हर महीने की पहली तारीख को करना होगा।

By recognizing 'शुल्क' in these varied environments, learners can navigate daily life in India with much greater ease and confidence, understanding exactly what is expected of them financially in formal situations.

When learning the word 'शुल्क' (shulk), non-native speakers often make several predictable errors, primarily revolving around vocabulary confusion, incorrect verb pairings, and gender mismatch. The most frequent mistake is confusing 'शुल्क' with words that mean 'price' or 'cost', such as 'कीमत' (keemat) or 'दाम' (daam).

Mistake: Confusing Fee with Price: Using 'शुल्क' for physical goods. Saying 'इस सेब का शुल्क क्या है?' (What is the fee of this apple?) is entirely incorrect. You must use 'दाम' or 'कीमत' for physical items.

Incorrect: किताब का शुल्क सौ रुपये है। | Correct: किताब की कीमत सौ रुपये है।

Another common error is using the wrong verbs. Because 'शुल्क' is a payment, learners sometimes try to use verbs associated with buying, like 'खरीदना' (to buy). You cannot 'buy' a fee.

Mistake: Incorrect Verbs: Saying 'मैंने शुल्क खरीदा' (I bought the fee). The correct verbs are 'देना' (to give), 'चुकाना' (to pay off), or 'जमा करना' (to deposit).

Incorrect: मैं स्कूल का शुल्क खरीद रहा हूँ। | Correct: मैं स्कूल का शुल्क जमा कर रहा हूँ।

Gender mistakes are also prevalent. 'शुल्क' is a masculine noun. Learners who are used to the English loanword 'फीस' (fees), which is treated as feminine in Hindi (मेरी फीस), often mistakenly apply feminine grammar to 'शुल्क'.

Mistake: Gender Agreement: Treating 'शुल्क' as feminine. Saying 'प्रवेश शुल्क महँगी है' instead of 'प्रवेश शुल्क महँगा है'.

Incorrect: आपकी शुल्क कितनी है? | Correct: आपका शुल्क कितना है?

Lastly, learners sometimes confuse 'शुल्क' with 'किराया' (rent/fare) or 'जुर्माना' (fine/penalty). While a late fee is a penalty (विलंब शुल्क), a standard fine for breaking a law is 'जुर्माना'. Renting a house requires 'किराया', not 'शुल्क'.

Incorrect: घर का शुल्क दस हज़ार है। | Correct: घर का किराया दस हज़ार है।

पुलिस ने यातायात नियम तोड़ने पर जुर्माना (not शुल्क) लगाया।

Avoiding these common pitfalls will make your Hindi sound much more natural and precise.

The Hindi language has a rich vocabulary related to money, payments, and financial transactions. Understanding the nuances between 'शुल्क' (shulk) and its synonyms or related terms is essential for achieving fluency and accuracy. The most direct synonym, though an English loanword, is 'फीस' (fees). It is used interchangeably with 'शुल्क' in almost all spoken contexts, though 'शुल्क' remains preferred in writing.

फीस (Fees): The English loanword, universally understood in India. It is treated as a feminine noun (मेरी फीस). It is less formal than शुल्क.

डॉक्टर की फीस (or शुल्क) बहुत ज़्यादा है।

Another related word is 'कीमत' (keemat) or 'दाम' (daam), which translates to 'price' or 'cost'. As discussed earlier, these are strictly used for physical objects or commodities, not for services.

कीमत / दाम (Price / Cost): Used when purchasing goods. 'सब्जी का दाम' (price of vegetables) or 'फोन की कीमत' (cost of the phone).

इस कार की कीमत बहुत अधिक है, और इसके पंजीकरण का शुल्क भी।

'किराया' (kiraya) is another crucial financial term. It means 'rent' or 'fare'. You pay 'किराया' for using someone else's property (like a house or a car) or for transportation (bus fare, train fare).

किराया (Rent / Fare): Payment for temporary use of property or transport. Not to be confused with a fee for a service.

मकान मालिक ने इस महीने का किराया (not शुल्क) माँगा है।

'कर' (kar) or 'टैक्स' (tax) is a mandatory payment to the government. While some fees (like customs duty - सीमा शुल्क) function similarly to taxes, 'कर' is the general term for taxation (e.g., आय कर - income tax).

सरकार ने वस्तुओं पर कर बढ़ा दिया है, जिससे सेवा शुल्क भी बढ़ गया है।

Finally, 'चंदा' (chanda) means donation or subscription, usually voluntary, unlike 'शुल्क' which is mandatory.

मंदिर के निर्माण के लिए लोगों ने चंदा दिया, यह कोई अनिवार्य शुल्क नहीं था।

By distinguishing 'शुल्क' from fees, prices, rents, taxes, and donations, you build a highly precise and articulate Hindi vocabulary.

팁

Masculine Gender

Always treat 'शुल्क' as a masculine noun. Use 'का', 'मेरा', 'बड़ा' with it. Never say 'मेरी शुल्क'.

Compound Words

Learn to create compound words. Add 'शुल्क' to the end of service nouns: प्रवेश (entry) + शुल्क = प्रवेश शुल्क.

Not for Goods

Never use 'शुल्क' when buying physical items like food, clothes, or electronics. Use 'कीमत' instead.

Correct Verbs

Use 'जमा करना' (to deposit) for formal payments to schools or banks, rather than just 'देना' (to give).

Learn 'निःशुल्क'

The word 'निःशुल्क' (free) is just as important as 'शुल्क'. Look for it on signs to save money!

Fees vs Shulk

Don't stress if you forget 'शुल्क' while speaking. Saying 'फीस' is 100% acceptable in casual conversation.

Formal Letters

If you are writing an application to a principal or manager, always use 'शुल्क', never 'फीस'.

The 'Sh' Sound

Ensure you pronounce the 'श' clearly. Mispronouncing it as 'स' (s) changes the accent and sounds incorrect.

Hospital Vocabulary

Memorize 'परामर्श शुल्क' (consultation fee). You will see this on every doctor's clinic board in India.

Government Forms

When filling out Hindi forms, look for 'आवेदन शुल्क' to know how much money to attach with your application.

Sanskrit

문화적 맥락

It is considered rude to ask a professional (like a doctor or lawyer) 'आपकी कीमत क्या है?' (What is your price?). You must always ask 'आपका शुल्क क्या है?' (What is your fee?).

Using 'शुल्क' instead of the English 'fees' when speaking to an official or an elder shows respect and a good command of the language.

In highly urbanized areas (Delhi, Mumbai), 'फीस' is dominant in speech. In more traditional or Hindi-heartland regions (UP, MP, Bihar), 'शुल्क' is commonly spoken in formal settings.

No. When buying a physical object like a car, you must use the word 'कीमत' (keemat) or 'दाम' (daam), which means price. However, you will pay a registration 'शुल्क' (fee) to the government to register the car. The distinction is between the physical good and the administrative service.

'शुल्क' is a masculine noun in Hindi. Therefore, adjectives and verbs must agree with its masculine gender. You say 'मेरा शुल्क' (my fee) and 'शुल्क दिया गया' (the fee was given). Do not confuse its gender with the English loanword 'फीस' (fees), which is treated as feminine in Hindi.

There is no difference in meaning; both mean 'fee'. The difference is in origin and formality. 'शुल्क' is a formal Hindi/Sanskrit word used in official documents, news, and formal writing. 'फीस' is an English loanword used heavily in everyday spoken Hindi.

The most formal and direct translation is 'निःशुल्क' (nishulk), which literally means 'without fee'. You can also say 'मुफ़्त' (muft), which is a more common, everyday word for 'free'. In official contexts, 'निःशुल्क' is always preferred.

If you are paying the fee, use 'देना' (to give), 'चुकाना' (to pay off), or 'जमा करना' (to deposit). If an institution is charging the fee, use 'लेना' (to take) or 'लगाना' (to impose). Never use 'खरीदना' (to buy) with 'शुल्क'.

'विलंब' means delay or late. Therefore, 'विलंब शुल्क' translates to 'late fee'. It is the extra penalty charge you must pay if you fail to submit your regular fee or bill by the due date.

Generally, the word for tax is 'कर' (kar). However, certain types of duties or indirect taxes are called 'शुल्क', the most common being 'सीमा शुल्क' (customs duty) and 'उत्पाद शुल्क' (excise duty). But for income tax, you say 'आय कर', not 'आय शुल्क'.

It is pronounced as 'shulk'. The first sound is 'sh' (as in shoe), followed by a short 'u' (as in put), then an 'l', and ending with a hard 'k'. Do not pronounce it with an 's' sound (sulk).

'परामर्श' means consultation or advice. 'परामर्श शुल्क' is the consultation fee you pay to a professional, most commonly a doctor, lawyer, or consultant, for their expert advice and time.

Yes, but because it ends in a consonant, its direct plural remains 'शुल्क' (e.g., दो शुल्क - two fees). However, in the oblique case (when followed by a postposition like 'का', 'में', 'पर'), it becomes 'शुल्कों' (e.g., विभिन्न शुल्कों का विवरण - details of various fees).
