सिलेंडर em 30 segundos

  • A 'सिलेंडर' is a gas cylinder, primarily for cooking.
  • It's a common household item in India.
  • Used for LPG, needs replacement when empty.
  • Loanword from English 'cylinder'.

The Hindi word 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) is a direct borrowing from the English word 'cylinder'. In everyday Indian households, it almost exclusively refers to the gas cylinder used for cooking. These are typically large, metal, cylindrical containers filled with LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). When a family runs out of cooking gas, they need to replace their 'सिलेंडर'. This is a very common household item and the word is used frequently in daily conversations related to home management and cooking.

Primary Use
For cooking gas in homes.
Material
Usually made of sturdy metal.
Common Scenario
When the gas runs out, you need to get a new 'सिलेंडर'.

घर में खाना बनाने के लिए गैस सिलेंडर का इस्तेमाल होता है।

Translation: A gas cylinder is used for cooking in the house.

माँ, आज सिलेंडर बदलवाना है।

Translation: Mom, we need to get the cylinder changed today.

The word is so ingrained in the domestic vocabulary that it's used without much thought. When someone says they need to 'सिलेंडर लेना है' (silendar lena hai - have to get a cylinder), it's almost always understood to mean getting a new gas cylinder. The physical presence of these cylinders in almost every Indian kitchen makes the word highly familiar and frequently used.

Using 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) in sentences is quite straightforward, especially when referring to its primary meaning of a cooking gas cylinder. You'll often hear it in contexts related to household chores, shopping for essentials, or discussing kitchen supplies. The verb 'बदलना' (badalna - to change) is frequently associated with 'सिलेंडर', as in 'सिलेंडर बदलना' (silendar badalna - to change the cylinder). Other common verbs include 'लाना' (lana - to bring), 'लेना' (lena - to take/get), 'खाली होना' (khali hona - to become empty), and 'भरना' (bharna - to fill).

हमारे घर का सिलेंडर लगभग खाली हो गया है।

Translation: Our house's cylinder has almost become empty.
Sentence Structure
Subject + (Object) + सिलेंडर + Verb.
Common Verbs
बदलना (to change), लाना (to bring), लेना (to get), खाली होना (to become empty).

क्या आप बाज़ार से एक नया सिलेंडर ला सकते हैं?

Translation: Can you bring a new cylinder from the market?

When discussing the process of getting a new cylinder, you might hear phrases like 'सिलेंडर बुक करना' (silendar book karna - to book a cylinder) or 'सिलेंडर डिलीवर हो गया' (silendar deliver ho gaya - the cylinder has been delivered). The word is used in simple declarative sentences, questions, and commands related to managing household gas supply.

हमें तुरंत एक सिलेंडर बदलवाना पड़ेगा।

Translation: We will have to change the cylinder immediately.

You will hear the word 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) most frequently in domestic settings. Conversations between family members, especially spouses or between parents and children, often revolve around the status of the cooking gas. For example, a child might tell their parent, 'माँ, खाना बनाना है, पर सिलेंडर खाली है।' (Maa, khana banana hai, par silendar khali hai. - Mom, I need to cook, but the cylinder is empty.). This is a very common scenario.

पड़ोस वालींटी ने पूछा, "आपका सिलेंडर कब खत्म हुआ?"

Translation: The neighbor asked, "When did your cylinder finish?"

You'll also hear it when people are ordering gas refills. They might call a local gas agency or a delivery service and say, 'मुझे एक सिलेंडर चाहिए।' (Mujhe ek silendar chahiye. - I need a cylinder.). The delivery person might then ask, 'पुराना सिलेंडर दे दीजिए।' (Purana silendar de dijiye. - Please give the old cylinder.).

Household Chat
Discussions about running out of gas, needing to replace it.
Gas Agencies/Delivery Services
When ordering refills or discussing delivery.
Marketplace
When purchasing gas stoves or related accessories, the cylinder might be mentioned.

दुकानदार ने पूछा, "क्या आपको सिलेंडर भी चाहिए?"

Translation: The shopkeeper asked, "Do you also need a cylinder?"

The most common 'mistake' isn't necessarily a grammatical error, but rather a misunderstanding of the word's primary context for Hindi speakers. Since 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) is so strongly associated with cooking gas cylinders, using it to refer to other types of cylinders (like for industrial gases, or even abstract cylindrical shapes) might cause confusion unless the context is very clear.

Incorrect Usage: मैंने एक पानी का सिलेंडर खरीदा। (Maine ek pani ka silendar khareeda.)

Meaning: I bought a water cylinder. (This would sound odd; 'बोतल' (botal - bottle) or 'टैंक' (tank) would be more appropriate for water storage).
Overgeneralization
Assuming 'सिलेंडर' can be used for any cylindrical object without context.
Lack of Specificity
Using 'सिलेंडर' when a more specific Hindi word for a different type of cylinder exists and would be clearer.

Correct Usage: कृपया नया गैस सिलेंडर लगा दीजिए। (Kripya naya gas silendar laga dijiye.)

Meaning: Please attach the new gas cylinder.

Another potential issue is pronunciation. While it's a loanword, ensuring clear pronunciation helps native speakers understand you immediately. However, this is more about fluency than a specific 'mistake' related to the word's meaning.

While 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) is the dominant word for a cooking gas cylinder, there are related concepts and terms. For other types of cylinders, Hindi might use more descriptive phrasing or specific technical terms.

Formal/Technical Term
गैस टंकी (gas tanki): This is a more literal translation and can be understood, but 'सिलेंडर' is far more common for domestic use.
Industrial/Other Gases
For cylinders containing gases like oxygen, nitrogen, or for industrial purposes, people might still use 'सिलेंडर' but specify the gas, e.g., 'ऑक्सीजन सिलेंडर' (oxygen silendar). Sometimes, 'टैंक' (tank) might be used for larger containers.
General Cylinder Shape
If referring to a cylindrical object that is not a gas container, one might use 'बेलनाकार वस्तु' (belanakar vastu - cylindrical object) or describe its shape. The word 'बेलन' (belan) means rolling pin, which is cylindrical, but it's a specific item.

Comparison: 'सिलेंडर' (common for cooking gas) vs. 'टैंक' (often for larger storage).

Example: अस्पताल में ऑक्सीजन सिलेंडर का उपयोग होता है। (Aspatal mein oxygen silendar ka upyog hota hai.)

Translation: Oxygen cylinders are used in hospitals.

In essence, while 'सिलेंडर' is a loanword, it has become the standard and most natural term for a domestic cooking gas cylinder in Hindi. For other contexts, speakers might revert to English terms or use more descriptive Hindi phrases.

How Formal Is It?

Curiosidade

While 'cylinder' in English has a broad meaning, in Hindi, its usage has become highly specialized, almost exclusively referring to the cooking gas container. This is a common phenomenon where loanwords acquire a narrower, specific meaning in their new linguistic environment.

Frequentemente confundido com

सिलेंडर vs टंकी (tanki)

'टंकी' can mean tank, and sometimes people might say 'गैस टंकी' for a gas cylinder, but 'सिलेंडर' is far more prevalent for cooking gas. 'टंकी' is also used for water tanks.

सिलेंडर vs बोतल (botal)

'बोतल' means bottle, which is a smaller container. A gas cylinder is much larger and pressurized, so it's not confused with a bottle unless referring to very small gas canisters for camping.

सिलेंडर vs बेलन (belan)

'बेलन' means rolling pin, which is cylindrical in shape, but it's a specific kitchen tool and not a gas container. The shape is similar, but the function and context are entirely different.

Fácil de confundir

सिलेंडर vs टंकी (tanki)

Both 'सिलेंडर' and 'टंकी' can refer to containers for gas or liquids.

'सिलेंडर' is the standard and most common term for a domestic cooking gas cylinder in Hindi. 'टंकी' can refer to various types of tanks, including water tanks or sometimes a gas tank, but in the context of cooking gas, 'सिलेंडर' is overwhelmingly preferred. Using 'गैस टंकी' is understandable but less idiomatic than 'सिलेंडर'.

हमने <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>सिलेंडर</mark> बदलवाया। (We got the cylinder changed.) vs. पानी की <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>टंकी</mark> भरवा लो। (Fill the water tank.)

सिलेंडर vs बोतल (botal)

Both are containers, and some small gas canisters might resemble bottles.

'सिलेंडर' refers to a large, pressurized container for cooking gas (LPG). 'बोतल' refers to a much smaller container, typically for liquids like water, drinks, or sometimes small gas cartridges for portable stoves. The size, pressure, and type of gas are fundamentally different.

यह <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>सिलेंडर</mark> बहुत भारी है। (This cylinder is very heavy.) vs. मुझे पानी की <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>बोतल</mark> चाहिए। (I need a bottle of water.)

सिलेंडर vs ईंधन (eendhan)

Both relate to energy for cooking.

'ईंधन' is the general Hindi word for 'fuel'. It can refer to wood, coal, gas, petrol, etc. 'सिलेंडर' specifically refers to the container that holds the cooking gas fuel (LPG). You use 'ईंधन' to talk about the type of energy, and 'सिलेंडर' to talk about the vessel that stores and delivers that fuel for cooking.

लकड़ी <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>ईंधन</mark> का एक पारंपरिक स्रोत है। (Wood is a traditional source of fuel.) vs. <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>सिलेंडर</mark> में गैस भरवानी है। (The gas in the cylinder needs to be refilled.)

सिलेंडर vs पाइप (pipe)

Both are involved in gas delivery systems.

A 'पाइप' (pipe) is a hollow tube used to convey fluids or gases. In a kitchen, a pipe might connect the gas cylinder to the stove. The 'सिलेंडर' is the container holding the gas, while the 'पाइप' is the conduit through which the gas flows from the cylinder to the appliance.

गैस <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>सिलेंडर</mark> से स्टोव तक <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>पाइप</mark> लगा होता है। (A pipe is attached from the gas cylinder to the stove.)

सिलेंडर vs कंटेनर (container)

'सिलेंडर' is a type of container.

'कंटेनर' is a general English loanword for any vessel that holds something. 'सिलेंडर' is a specific type of container, characterized by its cylindrical shape and its use for pressurized gases, primarily LPG for cooking in the Indian context. So, a cylinder is a container, but not all containers are cylinders.

यह <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>सिलेंडर</mark> एक विशेष प्रकार का <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>कंटेनर</mark> है। (This cylinder is a special type of container.)

  • Using 'सिलेंडर' for any cylindrical object. Use 'सिलेंडर' primarily for cooking gas cylinders. For other cylindrical objects, use more descriptive Hindi or English terms.

    In Hindi, 'सिलेंडर' has a very specific common meaning. While technically correct for any cylinder shape, it will likely cause confusion if used for something like a water bottle or a pipe.

  • Confusing 'सिलेंडर' (container) with 'गैस' (gas) or 'ईंधन' (fuel). Remember that 'सिलेंडर' is the container, while 'गैस' or 'ईंधन' is the content. Use 'सिलेंडर खाली है' (cylinder is empty) not 'गैस खाली है' (gas is empty - though this is also understood, 'सिलेंडर खाली है' is more common for the appliance).

    'सिलेंडर' refers to the physical object, whereas 'गैस' or 'ईंधन' refers to the substance inside it. While related, they are distinct terms.

  • Not using the plural form 'सिलेंडरों' when necessary. Use 'सिलेंडरों' when referring to multiple cylinders. For example, 'हमें दो सिलेंडर चाहिए।' (We need two cylinders).

    Like most countable nouns, 'सिलेंडर' has a plural form. Forgetting it can make sentences sound unnatural, especially when discussing quantities.

  • Over-reliance on the English pronunciation. Try to adopt the Hindi pronunciation, which is very similar but might have subtle differences in vowel sounds or rhythm.

    While it's a loanword, adapting to the local pronunciation aids comprehension and makes your speech sound more natural to native speakers.

  • Using 'टंकी' instead of 'सिलेंडर' for cooking gas. Use 'सिलेंडर' as the primary term for cooking gas cylinders.

    While 'गैस टंकी' is understandable, 'सिलेंडर' is the overwhelmingly common and idiomatic term in everyday Hindi for this specific item. Using 'टंकी' might sound slightly less natural in this context.

Origem da palavra

The word 'सिलेंडर' is a direct loanword from the English word 'cylinder'. It entered Hindi due to the widespread adoption of LPG cooking gas in India, which is stored and transported in cylindrical containers.

Significado original: In English, 'cylinder' refers to any object shaped like a cylinder, a solid geometric figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section. This can include pipes, cans, rolls, and other shapes.

Indo-Aryan (Hindi) / Germanic (English)

Contexto cultural

No specific sensitivities are associated with this word, other than general safety precautions when handling gas cylinders.

In English-speaking countries, while gas cylinders exist for various purposes (BBQ, camping, industrial), the term 'cylinder' is much broader. For cooking, many use natural gas piped to the home or electric stoves. The specific context of a cooking gas cylinder is less dominant than in India.

Perguntas frequentes

10 perguntas

The most common meaning of 'सिलेंडर' (silendar) in Hindi is a cooking gas cylinder, the one used in kitchens to supply LPG to stoves. While 'cylinder' in English has a broader meaning, in Hindi, this specific usage is dominant.

You can say 'सिलेंडर बदलो' (silendar badlo - informal command) or 'सिलेंडर बदल दो' (silendar badal do - polite command). For a more formal context, you might say 'सिलेंडर बदलना होगा' (silendar badalna hoga - the cylinder will have to be changed).

If the gas cylinder runs out, you would say 'सिलेंडर खाली हो गया है' (silendar khali ho gaya hai). Then, you would typically need to order a new one, which is 'नया सिलेंडर मंगवाना' (naya silendar mangaana) or 'सिलेंडर बुक करना' (silendar book karna).

Yes, 'सिलेंडर' can be used for other types of gas cylinders, but it's usually specified. For example, 'ऑक्सीजन सिलेंडर' (oxygen silendar) for an oxygen cylinder or 'नाइट्रोजन सिलेंडर' (nitrogen silendar) for a nitrogen cylinder. However, without specification, it defaults to the cooking gas cylinder.

No, 'सिलेंडर' is a loanword from English and is generally easy to pronounce for English speakers. The pronunciation is very similar to the English word 'cylinder', with the stress on the first syllable ('sil-').

The plural form of 'सिलेंडर' is 'सिलेंडरों' (silendaron). For example, 'दो सिलेंडर' (do silendar - two cylinders).

While 'सिलेंडर' is the most common, you might occasionally hear 'गैस टंकी' (gas tanki), but 'सिलेंडर' is the standard and idiomatic term for domestic cooking gas.

The most common color for LPG cylinders in India is red, though some companies might use different colors. They are usually made of metal and have a distinctive shape.

You can usually call your local gas agency or use their app/website to 'सिलेंडर बुक करना' (book a cylinder). They will then arrange for delivery.

'ईंधन' (eendhan) means fuel in general (like wood, coal, gas, petrol). 'सिलेंडर' specifically refers to the container that holds the cooking gas fuel (LPG). So, the cylinder contains the fuel.
