दूरभाष
दूरभाष 30秒了解
- Formal Hindi term for 'telephone'.
- Derived from Sanskrit 'Door' (Far) + 'Bhash' (Speech).
- Used in official, academic, and technical contexts.
- Masculine gender; plural remains same in direct case.
The word दूरभाष (Doorbhash) is a highly formal and technical Hindi noun that translates directly to 'telephone'. While the average Hindi speaker in Delhi or Mumbai will almost exclusively use the English loanwords 'phone' or 'mobile' in their daily interactions, doorbhash remains the official, standardized term used by the Government of India, in academic textbooks, and within formal literature. It is a compound word derived from Sanskrit, where 'door' (दूर) signifies distance and 'bhash' (भाष) refers to speech or language. Thus, it literally means 'speech from a distance'.
- Formal Register
- This word is primarily found in government documents, official forms, and formal broadcasting. For example, a government application form will ask for your 'Doorbhash Sankhya' (Telephone Number) rather than your 'Phone Number'.
- Technical Context
- In the field of telecommunications engineering within Hindi-medium instruction, the mechanics of sound transmission are described using this term to maintain linguistic purity and technical precision.
- Linguistic Purity
- Hindi has a tradition of creating indigenous terms for modern inventions. While 'Doorbhash' is the most successful, others like 'Chal-doorbhash' (mobile phone) exist but are even less common in speech.
कृपया अपना दूरभाष क्रमांक यहाँ अंकित करें। (Please mark your telephone number here.)
आज के युग में दूरभाष संचार का सबसे सशक्त माध्यम है। (In today's era, the telephone is the most powerful medium of communication.)
सरकारी कार्यालयों में दूरभाष की सुविधा उपलब्ध है। (Telephone facilities are available in government offices.)
क्या आपके पास दूरभाष निर्देशिका है? (Do you have a telephone directory?)
उसने दूरभाष पर सूचना दी। (He gave the information over the telephone.)
Understanding this word is crucial for anyone aiming for a professional level of Hindi proficiency. It represents the formal side of the language that separates a casual learner from a dedicated scholar. When reading newspapers like 'Dainik Jagran' or 'Navbharat Times', you will frequently encounter this term in headlines regarding telecommunication policies or technological advancements. It serves as a bridge between the ancient roots of Sanskrit and the modern digital world.
Using दूरभाष correctly requires an understanding of its grammatical function as a masculine noun. In Hindi, nouns dictate the form of accompanying adjectives and verbs. Because doorbhash is masculine, any possessive pronouns or descriptive adjectives must reflect that gender. For instance, 'new telephone' would be 'naya doorbhash' (नया दूरभाष), not 'nayi doorbhash'.
- Possessive Case
- When saying 'his telephone', use 'uska doorbhash'. In a sentence: 'Uska doorbhash kharab hai' (His telephone is broken).
- Postpositions
- When followed by postpositions like 'par' (on/at) or 'se' (from/by), the word does not change its form in the singular, but it helps define the action. 'Doorbhash par baat karna' means 'to talk on the telephone'.
मंत्री जी ने दूरभाष के माध्यम से जनता को संबोधित किया। (The Minister addressed the public through the telephone.)
क्या आपके दूरभाष में नेटवर्क की समस्या है? (Is there a network problem in your telephone?)
प्राचीन काल में दूरभाष एक विलासिता थी। (In ancient times, the telephone was a luxury.)
In formal Hindi, verbs often used with doorbhash include 'karna' (to do/make a call) and 'uthana' (to pick up/answer). For example, 'Doorbhash uthaiye' (Pick up the telephone). While 'Phone milana' is common for dialing, in formal Hindi, you might see 'Doorbhash sampark sthapit karna' (To establish telephone contact).
If you are walking down a street in Jaipur or Delhi, you will see signs for 'PCO/STD/ISD'. Below these, you might see the word दूरभाष केन्द्र (Doorbhash Kendra), which means 'Telephone Center'. This is one of the most common places to see the word in the physical world.
- Public Announcements
- At railway stations or airports, if a person is being called to a courtesy phone, the announcement might use 'doorbhash'.
- News Media
- News anchors on channels like DD News (the national broadcaster) use 'doorbhash' when they are connecting to a reporter on the field. They will say, 'Humare sanvad-data doorbhash par jude hain' (Our reporter is connected via telephone).
रेडियो पर दूरभाष के माध्यम से श्रोताओं के प्रश्न लिए गए। (Questions from listeners were taken via telephone on the radio.)
Furthermore, in the legal system of India, when Hindi is used in court proceedings, 'doorbhash' is the legal term for any evidence related to telephonic conversations. Police reports (FIRs) written in Hindi will also consistently use this term to describe the device used to commit or report a crime.
The most common mistake learners make with दूरभाष is using it in the wrong social context. Because it is so formal, using it during a casual hang-out can make you sound robotic or overly stiff. Imagine saying 'I will contact you on your telephonic apparatus' to a friend in English—that is how 'doorbhash' can sound in a casual Hindi setting.
- Gender Confusion
- Many learners assume modern technology words are feminine. However, 'doorbhash' is masculine. Saying 'Badi doorbhash' (big telephone) is incorrect; it must be 'Bada doorbhash'.
- Spelling Errors
- The 'sh' sound at the end is the cerebral 'ष' (ṣ), not the dental 'स' (s) or the palatal 'श' (ś). Misspelling it as 'doorbhas' is a frequent error for beginners.
गलत: मेरी दूरभाष कहाँ है? (Wrong: Where is my [fem] telephone?)
सही: मेरा दूरभाष कहाँ है? (Correct: Where is my [masc] telephone?)
Another mistake is overcomplicating the plural. Since 'doorbhash' is a masculine noun ending in a consonant, it does not change in the direct plural. 'One telephone' is 'ek doorbhash', and 'ten telephones' is 'dus doorbhash'. Only use 'doorbhashon' when a postposition follows.
While दूरभाष is the king of formal terms, there are several alternatives you should know to navigate different levels of Hindi formality.
- फोन (Phone)
- The most common word. Used by everyone from children to professionals in daily speech. It is also masculine.
- मोबाइल (Mobile)
- Specifically refers to a cell phone. In India, people often say 'mobile' instead of 'phone'.
- चलभाष (Chal-doorbhash)
- The hyper-formal term for a mobile phone. 'Chal' means moving. You will almost never hear this unless you are listening to a very formal linguistic debate or reading a pure Hindi technical manual.
- टेलीफोन (Telephone)
- The English word transliterated into Hindi. Common in semi-formal settings.
तुलना: 'फोन' आम है, जबकि 'दूरभाष' खास है। (Comparison: 'Phone' is common, while 'Doorbhash' is special/formal.)
Understanding these nuances helps in code-switching. If you are writing a letter to a government official, use 'doorbhash'. If you are texting a friend to call you back, use 'phone'.
How Formal Is It?
"दूरभाष के माध्यम से अपनी उपस्थिति दर्ज कराएं।"
"क्या आपके पास दूरभाष है?"
"अरे, फोन उठाओ!"
"देखो, दूरभाष की घंटी बजी!"
"भाई, अपना डब्बा (phone) दे ज़रा।"
趣味小知识
Hindi has several 'Door-' words for modern tech: Doordarshan (Television - far vision) and Doorbhash (Telephone - far speech).
发音指南
- Using a dental 's' instead of cerebral 'sh'.
- Shortening the 'uu' in 'door'.
- Forgetting to aspirate the 'bh'.
难度评级
Easy to read once the conjunct and cerebral 'sh' are known.
The cerebral 'sh' (ष) is often confused with 'sh' (श).
Requires careful aspiration of 'bh' and vowel length.
Clear pronunciation makes it easy to identify.

小贴士
Root Learning
Learn the root 'Bhash' (speech). You will see it in Bhasha (language), Bhashan (speech), and Sambhashan (conversation).
Gender Check
Always pair it with 'Mera' or 'Uska'. Never 'Meri' or 'Uski'. This is a common mistake for beginners.
Context Matters
Use it in letters to officials. It shows you have a high level of education and respect for the language.
Aspiration
Don't forget the 'h' in 'bhash'. It's not 'door-bash'; it's 'door-bha-sh'. Blow a little air out.
Spelling
Practice the letter 'ष'. It looks like 'प' with a diagonal line through it. This is the correct 'sh' for this word.
PCO Nostalgia
Search for 'Indian PCO booth' images. You will often see the word 'Doorbhash' written on them.
News Practice
Watch 'DD News' in Hindi for 10 minutes. You are very likely to hear this word in a formal report.
Tone
When using 'Doorbhash', keep your tone polite and formal to match the word's register.
Association
Associate 'Doorbhash' with a desk phone (landline) and 'Phone' with a mobile. This helps categorize the formality.
Compound Words
Learn it alongside 'Doordarshan' (TV). Since both involve 'Door' (Far), they are easier to remember together.
记住它
记忆技巧
Imagine a DOOR between you and a friend. You use a BHASH (speech) to talk through the DOOR from a distance. DOOR + BHASH = Telephone.
视觉联想
Picture a giant old-fashioned rotary phone standing in front of a heavy wooden door.
Word Web
挑战
Try to say 'Doorbhash' five times fast without mixing up the 'bha' and 'sha' sounds.
词源
Compound word from Sanskrit. 'Dura' (दूर) meaning distant and 'Bhasha' (भाषा) meaning speech or language. It was coined in the 20th century to provide a native Hindi equivalent for the Western invention.
原始含义: Far-speech / Distant communication.
Indo-Aryan文化背景
No specific sensitivities, but avoid using it in slang contexts as it might be perceived as mocking formal speech.
English speakers should note that while 'Telephone' is slightly formal in English, 'Doorbhash' is significantly more formal in Hindi.

常见问题
10 个问题Technically, 'Doorbhash' can refer to any telephone, but 'Chal-doorbhash' is the specific formal term for mobile. However, in general formal contexts, 'Doorbhash' covers both.
It is masculine. You should always use masculine adjectives and verbs with it, like 'Bada doorbhash' or 'Doorbhash baj raha hai'.
It depends. In a casual essay, 'Phone' is fine. In a formal translation or a technical Hindi exam, 'Doorbhash' is preferred.
In the direct case, it remains 'Doorbhash'. For example, 'Do doorbhash' (Two telephones). In the oblique case, it becomes 'Doorbhashon'.
You can say 'Doorbhash dwara sampark karna' (To contact via telephone) or 'Doorbhash karna'.
Yes, it is a tatsam word, meaning it is taken directly from or derived from Sanskrit roots.
English loanwords are very common in modern Hindi (Hinglish) because they are shorter and widely understood due to global influence.

The word 'दूरभाष' (Doorbhash) is the formal counterpart to the common word 'phone'. Use it when you want to be precise, official, or demonstrate high-level Hindi proficiency, such as in exams or formal letters. Example: 'मेरे दूरभाष की घंटी बज रही है' (My telephone's bell is ringing).
- Formal Hindi term for 'telephone'.
- Derived from Sanskrit 'Door' (Far) + 'Bhash' (Speech).
- Used in official, academic, and technical contexts.
- Masculine gender; plural remains same in direct case.
Root Learning
Learn the root 'Bhash' (speech). You will see it in Bhasha (language), Bhashan (speech), and Sambhashan (conversation).
Gender Check
Always pair it with 'Mera' or 'Uska'. Never 'Meri' or 'Uski'. This is a common mistake for beginners.
Context Matters
Use it in letters to officials. It shows you have a high level of education and respect for the language.
Aspiration
Don't forget the 'h' in 'bhash'. It's not 'door-bash'; it's 'door-bha-sh'. Blow a little air out.
