सम्पत्ति em 30 segundos
- Sampatti is a formal Hindi word meaning property, wealth, or assets.
- It is a feminine noun, so use 'meri' and 'badi' with it.
- It covers houses, land, cash, and even intellectual ideas.
- Used in legal, banking, and formal family discussions in India.
The Hindi word सम्पत्ति (pronounced as 'sam-pat-tee') is a multifaceted noun that primarily translates to 'property,' 'wealth,' or 'assets' in English. It is derived from the Sanskrit root where 'Sam' implies completeness and 'Patti' relates to attainment or status. In the modern linguistic landscape of India, it is a formal and semi-formal term used to describe anything of value that is owned by an individual, a family, or an entity. While the word 'Dhan' often refers specifically to liquid cash or money, सम्पत्ति encompasses a broader spectrum including real estate, jewelry, stocks, and even intellectual holdings. You will encounter this word frequently in legal documents, news reports regarding the economy, and in serious family discussions concerning inheritance.
- Grammatical Gender
- Feminine. This is crucial for learners because adjectives and verbs must agree with its feminine nature (e.g., 'Badi sampatti' not 'Bada sampatti').
Sociologically, the concept of सम्पत्ति carries heavy weight in Indian culture. Historically, land was the primary form of wealth, and thus 'Sampatti' often evokes images of ancestral homes and agricultural plots. In a philosophical context, ancient Indian texts sometimes contrast material wealth (Bhautik Sampatti) with spiritual wealth (Adhyatmik Sampatti), suggesting that true 'attainment' is not found in gold but in character. However, in daily 21st-century Hindi, if someone says they are managing their 'sampatti,' they are almost certainly talking about their financial portfolio or real estate holdings.
यह भूमि हमारी पूर्वजों की सम्पत्ति है। (This land is our ancestors' property.)
Usage of this word varies by register. In a casual setting, a person might say 'Maal-taal' or 'Paisa' for money, but when dealing with a bank or a lawyer, they will invariably use सम्पत्ति. It is a word that commands respect and implies a certain scale of ownership. It is not usually used for small items like a pen or a book; rather, it is reserved for significant assets like a car, a house, or a large sum of investment.
- Economic Context
- In economics, 'Sampatti' refers to the total net worth of an individual or nation, including tangible and intangible assets.
ज्ञान ही सबसे बड़ी सम्पत्ति है। (Knowledge is the greatest wealth.)
Understanding the nuances between 'Sampatti' and its synonyms is key for B1 learners. While 'Dhan' is more poetic and often refers to money, and 'Jaidaad' (an Urdu-origin word) is very common in spoken Hindi specifically for real estate, सम्पत्ति remains the standard formal term used in the Constitution of India and all official Hindi communications. It suggests a structured, recognized ownership that is protected by law.
सरकार ने अवैध सम्पत्ति को जब्त कर लिया। (The government confiscated the illegal property.)
Using सम्पत्ति correctly requires an understanding of its feminine gender. This impacts the adjectives that precede it and the verbs that follow it. For instance, you would say 'Meri sampatti' (My property) rather than 'Mera sampatti.' Similarly, if you are describing property as 'large,' you use 'Badi' instead of 'Bada.' Because it is a formal word, it often appears in complex sentence structures involving possession and legal rights.
- Possessive Usage
- To indicate ownership, use the possessive markers 'ki' (feminine) or 'ke' (plural/oblique). Example: 'Rohan ki sampatti' (Rohan's property).
In a sentence, सम्पत्ति can function as the subject or the object. When it is the subject, the verb will take the feminine singular ending. For example, 'Sampatti badh rahi hai' (Wealth is increasing). Here, 'badh rahi hai' is the feminine form. If you were talking about 'Paisa' (Money), which is masculine, you would say 'Paisa badh raha hai.' This distinction is a common hurdle for English speakers who are not used to inanimate objects having gender.
उसने अपनी सारी सम्पत्ति दान कर दी। (He donated all his property/wealth.)
Furthermore, सम्पत्ति is frequently paired with adjectives that denote origin or type. 'Paitrik sampatti' (Ancestral property) is a very common phrase in Indian legal and social discourse. 'Niji sampatti' refers to private property, while 'Sarvajanik sampatti' refers to public property. When using these phrases, ensure the adjective ends in 'i' to match the feminine noun.
Consider the sentence structure in legal contexts: 'Sampatti ka adhikar' (Right to property). Even though 'Adhikar' (Right) is masculine, the 'ka' agrees with 'Adhikar,' not 'Sampatti.' However, in 'Sampatti ki suraksha' (Protection of property), the 'ki' agrees with 'Suraksha' (Protection), which is feminine. Mastering these nested gender dependencies is the hallmark of a B1-B2 learner.
क्या आपके पास इस सम्पत्ति के कागजात हैं? (Do you have the papers for this property?)
- Common Verbs
- Kharidna (to buy), Bechna (to sell), Batwara karna (to divide/partition), and Virasat mein milna (to inherit).
हमें सार्वजनिक सम्पत्ति को नुकसान नहीं पहुँचाना चाहिए। (We should not damage public property.)
In India, you will hear the word सम्पत्ति in several distinct environments. First and foremost is the legal and bureaucratic sphere. If you visit a 'Tehsil' (district administrative office) or a lawyer's chamber, the air is thick with talk of 'Sampatti panjikaran' (property registration). Real estate agents, though they might use the English word 'property' with clients, will use 'Sampatti' in formal contracts and advertisements.
- News and Media
- Hindi news channels like Aaj Tak or NDTV India frequently use 'Sampatti' when reporting on the net worth of politicians during election filings or when discussing national assets.
Another major arena for this word is Bollywood and Hindi television dramas. Plotlines often revolve around 'Paitrik Sampatti' (ancestral property) disputes between brothers or extended families. In these dramatic contexts, the word is used to emphasize the weight and history of the assets involved. It sounds more serious and 'heavy' than just saying 'Zameen' (land) or 'Ghar' (house). It represents the legacy of a lineage.
समाचार: 'मंत्री जी ने अपनी सम्पत्ति का ब्योरा दिया।' (News: 'The minister gave details of his assets.')
In the banking sector, 'Sampatti' is the standard term for collateral or assets. When applying for a loan, you might see forms asking for 'Sampatti ka vivaran' (Description of assets). Furthermore, in educational settings, especially in Social Studies or Economics textbooks, the 'Right to Property' (Sampatti ka Adhikar) is a fundamental topic discussed in the context of the Indian Constitution.
Finally, you will see it on signs in public places. 'Sarvajanik Sampatti' (Public Property) is often painted on the sides of trains, buses, and government buildings, usually followed by a warning that damaging it is a punishable offense. This makes the word part of the visual landscape for anyone living in or traveling through India.
- Banking Terminology
- 'Sampatti Prabandhan' is the Hindi term for 'Wealth Management,' a service offered by most major banks in India.
रेलवे राष्ट्र की सम्पत्ति है। (The railway is the nation's property.)
One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make is assigning the wrong gender to सम्पत्ति. Since 'Property' in English has no gender, learners often default to the masculine 'Mera' or 'Bada.' Remember, it is strictly feminine. Saying 'Mera sampatti' is a clear marker of a beginner. Always use 'Meri,' 'Apni,' or 'Badi.'
- Mistake: Gender Mismatch
- Incorrect: 'Yah ek bada sampatti hai.' Correct: 'Yah ek badi sampatti hai.'
Another mistake is confusing सम्पत्ति with 'Sammati.' While they sound somewhat similar to a non-native ear, 'Sammati' means 'consent' or 'agreement.' Using one instead of the other can lead to confusing situations, especially in legal contexts where both property and consent are vital topics. Pay close attention to the 'p' sound in 'Sampatti.'
गलत: मुझे आपकी सम्मति (Consent) चाहिए। सही: मुझे सम्पत्ति (Property) के कागजात चाहिए।
Learners also tend to overuse सम्पत्ति for small personal belongings. If you lost your wallet or your phone, you wouldn't typically say 'Maine apni sampatti kho di' (I lost my property/wealth). Instead, you would use 'Saman' (stuff/belongings) or the specific name of the object. Using 'Sampatti' for a phone makes it sound like the phone is a major real estate asset, which might come across as unintentionally humorous.
Lastly, be careful with the pluralization. While 'Sampattiyan' exists, it is often better to use 'Sampatti' as a collective noun or 'Sampattiyon' in the oblique case. For example, 'Sampattiyon ka vibhajan' (Division of properties). Over-pluralizing in the direct case can make your Hindi sound slightly unnatural.
- Register Confusion
- Using 'Sampatti' when you just mean 'cash' can be slightly off. If you want to pay for tea, use 'Paise,' not 'Sampatti.'
सावधान: 'सम्पत्ति' और 'सम्पदा' (Estate) में भी अंतर है, हालांकि वे काफी करीब हैं।
To truly master Hindi, you must know when to use सम्पत्ति and when to opt for a synonym. The most common alternative is जायदाद (Jaidaad). While 'Sampatti' is of Sanskrit origin, 'Jaidaad' is of Persian/Urdu origin. In spoken Hindi, especially in North India, 'Jaidaad' is the go-to word for real estate and inheritance. If you are watching a movie about a family feud over a house, they will likely use 'Jaidaad.'
- Comparison: Sampatti vs. Jaidaad
- Sampatti: Formal, legal, covers all assets (cash, stocks, land).
Jaidaad: Common, mostly refers to land and buildings.
Another word is धन (Dhan). This specifically means 'wealth' in the sense of money and prosperity. It is often used in religious or auspicious contexts, such as during the festival of 'Dhanteras.' You wouldn't call a building 'Dhan,' but the money you get from selling it is 'Dhan.' Then there is पूंजी (Poonji), which means 'capital.' This is used in business contexts to refer to the money invested to start or run a company.
उसने अपनी सारी पूंजी व्यापार में लगा दी। (He invested all his capital in the business.)
For general 'belongings' or 'stuff,' use सामान (Saman). If you are moving houses, you are moving your 'Saman,' not your 'Sampatti' (though the house itself is your 'Sampatti'). For 'assets' in a purely accounting sense, the word आस्तियां (Aastiyan) is sometimes used in textbooks, though 'Sampatti' remains more common in practice.
Lastly, दौलत (Daulat) is another word for wealth, often used to imply great riches or fortune. It has a slightly more romantic or literary feel than the clinical 'Sampatti.' A king has 'Daulat'; a taxpayer has 'Sampatti.'
- Synonym Summary
- 1. Jaidaad (Property/Land)
2. Dhan (Wealth/Money)
3. Poonji (Capital)
4. Daulat (Riches)
5. Saman (Belongings)
स्वास्थ्य ही असली दौलत है। (Health is the real wealth.)
How Formal Is It?
Curiosidade
The root 'pad' in 'patti' is the same root that gives us 'path' in English and 'pada' (foot/step) in Sanskrit, suggesting wealth is something you 'step into' or 'attain' through a journey.
Guia de pronúncia
- Using a hard English 't' (like in 'table') instead of the soft Hindi dental 't'.
- Pronouncing it as 'Sam-patti' with a clear 'm' instead of a nasalized 'n/m' sound.
- Confusing the 'p' with a 'b' sound (Sambatti - incorrect).
- Shortening the final 'i' to a quick 'i' instead of a long 'ee'.
- Swapping the 'p' and 't' sounds.
Nível de dificuldade
The word is easy to read if you know the conjunct 'm-p' and 't-t'.
The double 't' (half t + full t) can be tricky for beginners.
Pronunciation is straightforward but requires soft dental 't's.
Easily confused with 'Sammati' (consent) or 'Sampanna' (complete).

Significado original: In Sanskrit, it originally meant 'success,' 'prosperity,' 'perfection,' or 'attainment.'

Perguntas frequentes
10 perguntasIt is feminine. You should always use feminine adjectives and verbs with it. For example, say 'Badi sampatti' instead of 'Bada sampatti'.
Sampatti is a formal Sanskrit-based word covering all types of assets. Jaidaad is an Urdu-based word usually referring specifically to land and buildings.
Technically yes, but it sounds very strange. For small personal items, use 'Saman' or 'Vastu'. 'Sampatti' is reserved for high-value items like houses or large investments.
It is called 'Bauddhik Sampatti' (बौद्धिक सम्पत्ति). 'Bauddhik' means intellectual.
It means 'Ancestral Property'—wealth or land that has been passed down through generations in a family.
In casual talk, people prefer 'Paisa' or 'Jaidaad'. 'Sampatti' is used in more serious, formal, or legal contexts.
It means 'Public Property,' such as parks, trains, and government buildings that belong to the public/state.
The plural is 'Sampattiyan' (सम्पत्तियाँ), but the singular is often used collectively.
It means 'Property Tax.' 'Kar' is the Hindi word for tax.
Not really, but 'Dhan' is a shorter word for wealth, though it has a slightly different nuance.

Summary
The word 'Sampatti' is the standard formal term for 'property' in Hindi. Unlike 'paisa' (money), it implies a broader range of assets and formal ownership. Example: 'Yah meri paitrik sampatti hai' (This is my ancestral property).
- Sampatti is a formal Hindi word meaning property, wealth, or assets.
- It is a feminine noun, so use 'meri' and 'badi' with it.
- It covers houses, land, cash, and even intellectual ideas.
- Used in legal, banking, and formal family discussions in India.
Gender Check
Always remember that Sampatti is feminine. If you are describing it, your adjective must end in 'i'. 'Purani sampatti' (Old property).
Legal Use
If you are reading a Hindi newspaper, look for this word in the business or crime sections. It's almost always there.
Soft T
Make sure the 'tt' in Sampatti is soft. Don't let your tongue hit the roof of your mouth; hit your teeth instead.
Ancestral Pride
Understand that 'Paitrik Sampatti' is a matter of great pride and often conflict in Indian families.
