action

make progress or action difficult
To slow or make the work or progress of someone or something more difficult, but not stop it completely.
Модел на употреба:
to hinder [someone/something]
Честа грешка:
Learners often use "hinder" when they mean "stop" or "prevent". "Hinder" means to make something slower or more difficult, not to make it impossible. For example, "Rain hindered the game" means the game was made harder or delayed, not fully canceled. Also, the common pattern is "hinder [someone/something]" or "hinder [someone] from doing [something]", not "hinder to do".

|

At the back part of something, especially the back legs or end of an animal or object.
Модел на употреба:
the hinder [part/side/legs]
Честа грешка:
Many learners do not meet this adjective at all and instead only know "hind" or "rear". In modern English, "hind legs" is much more common than "hinder legs", so learners should prefer "hind" or "back" in everyday speech and writing.
Синоними
rear (Common, neutral word for the back part of something.)
|
hind (Very common before nouns like "legs"; more usual today than "hinder" in many contexts.)
Антоними
