Significado
To give directions or commands.
Contexto cultural
In offices in Bangladesh and West Bengal, 'নির্দেশ' is the standard term for directives. Using 'হুকুম' (Hukum) is considered rude and archaic, associated with colonial masters. In religious texts, 'নির্দেশ' refers to divine guidance. For example, the 'নির্দেশ' of the Gita or the Quran is seen as a path to righteousness. Children are expected to follow the 'নির্দেশ' of their parents without much argument. This is part of 'Pitri-bhakti' or 'Matri-bhakti' (devotion to parents). In Bengali cinema (like Satyajit Ray's films), the director is called 'Chalachitra Porichalok', but his act of directing the actors is often described as giving 'Nirdesh'.
Use with Genitive
Always remember to put the action in the genitive form (-র) before 'নির্দেশ'. For example: 'যাওয়ার নির্দেশ' (order to go).
Don't be too bossy
Using 'নির্দেশ দিচ্ছি' with friends can sound arrogant. Use 'বলো' or 'করো' instead.
