解析 दाम in your Level:
At the A1 level, 'दाम' (daam) is one of the first words you learn for survival Hindi. It simply means 'price'. You use it in very short, basic sentences to ask how much something costs. At this stage, you don't need to worry about complex grammar. Just remember the phrase 'Iska daam kya hai?' (What is its price?). You will mostly use it in markets while buying fruits, vegetables, or clothes. It is a masculine noun, so you use 'iska' (its - masculine) instead of 'iski'. You might also learn the word 'kam' (less) to say 'Daam kam karo' (Lower the price), which is a very useful phrase for any beginner in India. The focus is on transactional communication: identifying an object and asking for its cost. You will also see it on price tags in shops. It's a concrete word representing a concrete number.

At the A2 level, you start to use 'दाम' in slightly more descriptive sentences. You can now use adjectives with it, such as 'Sasta daam' (cheap price) or 'Mehenga daam' (expensive price). You understand that 'daam' is masculine and can use it with verbs like 'badhna' (to increase) or 'kam hona' (to decrease). For example, 'Aaj kal tamatar ke daam badh gaye hain' (Nowadays, the prices of tomatoes have increased). You are also beginning to recognize that 'daam' is used more in spoken, everyday Hindi compared to the more formal 'keemat'. You can participate in simple negotiations, asking for a 'theek daam' (fair price). You are also learning to use the plural form in oblique cases, like 'daamon mein' (in the prices). This level is about expanding the context from just asking a price to discussing price changes and fairness.
At the B1 level, you use 'दाम' to discuss broader economic topics and express opinions. You can talk about inflation ('mehangai') and how 'daam' affects your daily life. You start using 'daam' in compound sentences and with a wider range of verbs. For instance, 'Dukan-dar ne bahut zyada daam lagaya, isliye maine nahi khareeda' (The shopkeeper quoted a very high price, so I didn't buy it). You also begin to encounter 'daam' in common idioms and phrases, such as 'kaudiyon ke daam' (dirt cheap). You can compare 'daam' with 'keemat' and 'bhaav' and choose the right word based on the situation. Your understanding of the word moves from a simple noun to a part of social and economic interaction. You can also write short paragraphs about shopping experiences using this word correctly in various grammatical structures.

At the B2 level, your usage of 'दाम' becomes more nuanced and fluent. You can use it in metaphorical contexts and understand its placement in news reports and literature. You are comfortable with the plural usage 'daam' and 'daamon' and can use them with complex postpositions. You might discuss the 'daam' of abstract things like 'freedom' or 'success' in a literary way, though you know 'keemat' is more common there. You can explain the 'daam' of products in a business context, discussing 'laagat' (cost) versus 'daam' (selling price). You understand the cultural nuance of bargaining in India and how 'daam' is a flexible concept. You can also identify 'daam' in Bollywood lyrics and understand the emotional or social subtext it carries. Your speech is natural, and you don't confuse 'daam' with 'dam' or 'daan' (donation).

At the C1 level, you have a deep mastery of 'दाम'. You can use it in sophisticated arguments about economics, social justice, and market dynamics. You understand the historical etymology of the word and how it has evolved in different dialects of Hindi. You can use 'daam' in complex idiomatic expressions like 'daam lagana' in the sense of 'valuing' someone's contribution. You can write analytical essays on 'mehangai' (inflation) using 'daam' as a key term, varying it with 'moolya', 'dar', and 'keemat' to avoid repetition and add precision. You are sensitive to the register of the word—knowing that 'daam' adds a touch of 'common man' perspective to a formal discussion. You can also appreciate the use of 'daam' in classical Hindi poetry and modern literature, where it might symbolize the commodification of human emotions.

At the C2 level, you use 'दाम' with the finesse of a native speaker. You can play with the word in puns, double meanings, and high-level rhetoric. You understand the subtle differences between 'daam' in Khariboli Hindi versus its usage in regional dialects like Braj or Awadhi. You can lead a debate on economic policy, using 'daam' to represent the consumer's reality while switching to 'moolya' for theoretical frameworks. You can critique literature, analyzing how an author uses the word 'daam' to depict class struggle. Your pronunciation is perfect, capturing the subtle dental 'd' and the full 'm'. You can use 'daam' in any context—from a high-stakes auction to a philosophical discourse on the 'price of life'—with complete grammatical accuracy and cultural appropriateness. The word is no longer just a vocabulary item; it's a tool for complex expression.

दाम 30秒了解

  • Daam means 'price' or 'cost' in Hindi and is a masculine noun used in daily transactions.
  • It is synonymous with 'keemat' and 'moolya', but 'daam' is more colloquial and common in street markets.
  • Common phrases include 'daam lagana' (to bid) and 'daam badhna' (prices increasing).
  • In Hindi grammar, it is masculine, so use 'iska' or 'uske' with it, never feminine forms.

The Hindi word दाम (daam) is a fundamental noun that every learner of Hindi must master, especially those navigating the vibrant marketplaces of India. At its core, it refers to the 'price', 'cost', or 'value' of a commodity or service. While it is often used interchangeably with other words like 'keemat' (of Persian origin) or 'moolya' (of Sanskrit origin), 'daam' carries a specifically colloquial and grounded weight. It is the word you shout across a crowded vegetable market or whisper when haggling over a silk saree. In the linguistic landscape of North India, 'daam' isn't just a number; it's the starting point of a social contract—the negotiation.

Etymological Root
Derived from the Sanskrit word 'Dramya' or 'Daman', which historically referred to a specific denomination of coinage or a weight of metal used for currency. This gives the word a sense of physical weight and historical continuity.

भाई साहब, इस सेब का दाम क्या है? (Brother, what is the price of this apple?)

Understanding 'daam' requires understanding the concept of 'bhaav' (rate/sentiment). While 'daam' is the static price, the 'bhaav' might fluctuate based on the time of day or the customer's bargaining skills. In modern Hindi, 'daam' is masculine and typically used in the plural form when referring to general market trends (e.g., 'daam badh gaye hain' - prices have risen), though it functions perfectly as a singular noun for a specific item's cost. It is a versatile tool in your vocabulary kit, bridging the gap between formal transactions and street-side shopping.

आजकल पेट्रोल के दाम आसमान छू रहे हैं। (Nowadays, petrol prices are touching the sky/skyrocketing.)

Grammatical Gender
Masculine. Note how adjectives change: 'Sasta daam' (cheap price), 'Mehenga daam' (expensive price).

उसने मुझे सही दाम नहीं बताया। (He didn't tell me the correct price.)

Beyond the literal, 'daam' appears in literature and proverbs to signify the 'worth' of a person or an action. It is a word that encapsulates the economic reality of millions. Whether you are buying a 'chai' or a 'car', 'daam' is the word that facilitates the exchange. It is less formal than 'moolya' (value), which you might find in a textbook or a legal document, and more 'Desi' (local) than 'price'.

मेहनत का कोई दाम नहीं होता। (Hard work has no price/is priceless.)

Synonym Note
While 'Keemat' is very common, 'Daam' feels more native to the Hindi heartland and is used extensively in rural and semi-urban trade.

कौड़ियों के दाम (At the price of shells/Dirt cheap).

Using 'daam' correctly involves understanding its role as a masculine noun and its common pairings with verbs like 'lagana' (to fix/quote a price) and 'girna' (to fall). In a sentence, 'daam' usually follows the object it refers to, connected by the possessive particle 'ka/ke/ki'. For example, 'Aam ka daam' (The price of the mango). Because it is masculine, if you are talking about multiple prices or the general concept of 'prices', you use 'daam' (the form doesn't change in plural, but the verb does).

Common Verb Pairings
1. Daam Lagana: To quote a price or to bid. 2. Daam Chukana: To pay the price (often used metaphorically for consequences). 3. Daam Badhna: For prices to increase.

क्या आप इस पुरानी घड़ी का दाम लगा सकते हैं? (Can you quote a price for this old watch?)

When you are at a shop, the most common construction is '[Item] + ka + daam + kya + hai?'. However, in fast-paced market speech, this is often shortened to '[Item] + kis + daam + diya?' (At what price did you give/sell the item?). Notice the use of 'kis' (oblique form of 'kaun') here. It's also important to note that 'daam' is rarely used for 'salary' or 'wages'—for that, use 'vetan' or 'pagaar'. 'Daam' is strictly for the exchange value of goods.

सब्जियों के दाम कम हो गए हैं। (The prices of vegetables have decreased.)

Negotiation Phrases
'Theek daam lagao' (Fix a fair price), 'Kam daam karo' (Lower the price), 'Is daam par nahi' (Not at this price).

उसने मुंह मांगे दाम पर घर बेच दिया। (He sold the house at the price he asked for.)

In formal writing, you might see 'daam' used in economic reports, though 'keemat' or 'dar' (rate) are more frequent in technical contexts. However, in journalism, especially headlines about inflation ('mehangai'), 'daam' is a favorite because it is short, punchy, and resonates with the common man. It's a word that bridges the gap between the boardroom and the bazaar.

सोने के दाम में भारी गिरावट आई है। (There has been a heavy fall in the price of gold.)

Adjective Agreement
'Achha daam' (Good price), 'Bura daam' (Bad price), 'Uchit daam' (Appropriate price).

किसान को अपनी फसल का सही दाम मिलना चाहिए। (The farmer should get the right price for his crop.)

If you walk into any 'Sabzi Mandi' (vegetable market) in Delhi, Lucknow, or Mumbai, 'daam' is the soundtrack of the morning. You will hear vendors shouting the 'daam' of their produce to attract customers. It is the language of the street. But it doesn't stop there. In middle-class Indian households, the 'daam' of essential items like milk, gas, and onions is a constant topic of conversation at the dinner table. It is a word that signifies the pulse of the economy as felt by the individual.

The Marketplace (Bazaar)
The most common place. 'Iska kya daam hai?' is the universal question for any shopper.

दुकानदार: 'ये कुर्ता पांच सौ का है।' ग्राहक: 'नहीं, इसका दाम बहुत ज़्यादा है।' (Shopkeeper: 'This kurta is 500.' Customer: 'No, its price is too high.')

On news channels, you will see scrolling tickers about 'Petrol ke daam' or 'Sone ke daam'. Here, 'daam' is used to represent market rates. It sounds more urgent and relatable than the academic 'moolya'. In Bollywood movies, especially those dealing with crime or social issues, 'daam' is often used in the context of bribes or the 'price' someone has to pay for their mistakes. 'Har cheez ka ek daam hota hai' (Everything has a price) is a classic cinematic trope.

न्यूज़: 'डीज़ल के दाम फिर से बढ़े।' (News: 'Diesel prices increased again.')

Social Gatherings
People often discuss the 'daam' of real estate or cars to gauge social status or investment opportunities.

आजकल ज़मीन के दाम बहुत बढ़ गए हैं। (Nowadays, land prices have increased a lot.)

In literature, particularly in the works of Premchand or modern Hindi poets, 'daam' is used to highlight the struggle of the poor. The 'daam' of a piece of bread might be a triviality for the rich but a life-and-death matter for the protagonist. This emotional weight makes 'daam' a very expressive word in the Hindi lexicon.

उसने अपनी आज़ादी के लिए भारी दाम चुकाया। (He paid a heavy price for his freedom.)

E-commerce
Even on Hindi versions of apps like Amazon or Flipkart, you will see 'Daam' or 'Keemat' used for the listed price.

सेल में चीज़ें कम दाम पर मिलती हैं। (In a sale, things are available at lower prices.)

One of the most frequent mistakes learners make is confusing 'दाम' (daam - price) with 'दम' (dam - breath/strength). The difference is just one vowel marker (the 'aa' matra), but the meaning changes completely. Saying 'Iska dam kya hai?' might sound like you're asking about the item's 'stamina' or 'breath', which would be very confusing! Always elongate the 'aa' sound.

Confusion with 'Keemat'
While they are synonyms, 'Keemat' is feminine and 'Daam' is masculine. This affects the grammar: 'Iska daam' vs 'Iski keemat'.

गलत: इसकी दाम क्या है? सही: इसका दाम क्या है? (Wrong: What is its [fem] price? Right: What is its [masc] price?)

Another mistake is using 'daam' for abstract 'value' in a philosophical sense where 'moolya' would be more appropriate. For example, 'moral values' are 'naitik moolya', not 'naitik daam'. 'Daam' is almost always tied to a transaction or a physical cost. Also, remember that 'daam' is usually not used for human beings unless you are talking about slavery or a bounty, which is rare in modern conversation!

गलत: इस इंसान का दाम क्या है? (Wrong: What is the price of this person?)

Plural Usage
In Hindi, 'daam' is often used as a collective noun. Even if referring to many prices, the word 'daam' doesn't become 'daamon' unless followed by a postposition (like 'ko', 'mein', 'se').

बढ़ते हुए दामों से लोग परेशान हैं। (People are troubled by the increasing prices.)

Lastly, don't use 'daam' when you mean 'bill'. If you are at a restaurant and want to pay, you ask for the 'bill', not the 'daam' of the meal, although you could ask for the 'daam' of a specific dish on the menu. 'Daam' is the price tag; 'bill' is the total amount owed.

गलत: वेटर, खाने का दाम लाओ। (Wrong: Waiter, bring the price of the food.)

Overusing 'Daam'
While common, overusing 'daam' in formal business presentations might sound too informal. Use 'Moolya' or 'Laagat' (cost of production) there.

इस प्रोजेक्ट का कुल दाम... (Better to use 'laagat' or 'budget' here.)

Hindi has several words for 'price' and 'value', each with its own nuance. Understanding these differences will make your Hindi sound more natural and sophisticated. 'Daam' is the most common and colloquial, but let's look at its cousins.

Daam vs. Keemat
'Keemat' (Feminine) is of Persian/Urdu origin. It is used just as frequently as 'Daam' but often feels slightly more formal or poetic. You 'pay' a 'keemat' for a mistake, but you 'ask' the 'daam' of a potato.
Daam vs. Moolya
'Moolya' (Masculine) is of Sanskrit origin. It refers to 'intrinsic value' or 'worth'. It is used in academic, legal, or highly formal contexts. You talk about 'moral values' (naitik moolya) or the 'face value' of a bond.
Daam vs. Bhaav
'Bhaav' (Masculine) means 'rate' or 'market sentiment'. In a stock market or a vegetable market where prices change hourly, people ask 'Kya bhaav chal raha hai?' (What is the current rate?).

तुलना: 'इसका दाम क्या है?' (Colloquial) vs 'इसकी कीमत क्या है?' (Standard) vs 'इसका मूल्य क्या है?' (Formal).

There is also 'Dar' (Rate), which is used for fixed rates like interest rates (byaaj dar) or speed. Then there is 'Laagat', which specifically means the 'cost of production'. If you are a businessman, you care about the 'laagat' so you can set a profitable 'daam'.

लागत कम होगी तो दाम भी कम होंगे। (If the cost of production is low, the price will also be low.)

Idiomatic Differences
'Daam lagana' (to bid) vs 'Keemat chukana' (to suffer consequences). You rarely say 'Daam chukana' in a metaphorical sense.

उसने अपनी गलती की भारी कीमत चुकाई। (He paid a heavy price for his mistake—here 'keemat' is better than 'daam'.)

Finally, 'Anmol' means 'priceless' (an + mol). 'Mol' is a shortened root of 'moolya' or 'daam'. So when something has no 'daam' because it is too valuable, it is 'anmol'.

माँ का प्यार अनमोल है। (A mother's love is priceless.)

常见问题

10 个问题

It is a masculine noun. You say 'achha daam' (good price), not 'achhi daam'.

'Daam' is masculine and more colloquial. 'Keemat' is feminine and can be more formal or poetic. They both mean price.

No, for salary use 'vetan' or 'pagaar'. 'Daam' is for goods and services.

You can say 'Daam kam karo' or 'Theek daam lagao'.
