आवेदक (aavedak) means 'applicant' in Hindi. It refers to a person who formally requests something, like a job, admission to a school, or a loan.

You can use it like this:
1. आवेदन करने वाले सभी आवेदक योग्य थे।
(Aavedan karne vaale sabhi aavedak yogya the.)
(All the applicants who applied were qualified.)
2. उस नौकरी के लिए सैकड़ों आवेदक थे।
(Us naukri ke liye sainkadon aavedak the.)
(There were hundreds of applicants for that job.)

आवेदक is a masculine noun. If you need to refer to a female applicant, you would still use आवेदक. However, if you are describing the applicant, the adjective might change based on gender.

While आवेदक is the most common and direct translation for 'applicant,' you might sometimes hear words like प्रत्याशी (pratyaashi - candidate) or उम्मीदवार (ummeedvaar - candidate) in similar contexts, especially for elections or specific positions. However, आवेदक specifically refers to someone who has submitted an application.

आवेदक (aavedak) is someone who has applied for something. उम्मीदवार (ummeedvaar) is a candidate, often someone who has been shortlisted or is being considered for a position. An आवेदक becomes an उम्मीदवार once their application is reviewed and they move to the next stage.

Yes, आवेदक is quite versatile. You can use it for job applicants, school applicants, applicants for a visa, a loan, or any formal request.

You would generally still use आवेदक for a female applicant. Hindi often uses masculine forms for general terms. If you want to specify gender, you might add context like महिला आवेदक (mahila aavedak - female applicant).

The verb form is आवेदन करना (aavedan karna), which means 'to apply' or 'to make an application.' आवेदक is the person who 'करते हैं' (does) आवेदन (application).

आवेदक is a formal word. It's used in official documents, news, and formal conversations when referring to someone who has submitted an application.

It's pronounced 'aa-vay-dak'. The 'aa' is like the 'a' in 'father', 'vay' like 'way', and 'dak' like 'duck' but with a softer 'd' sound.
