take away something needed or owed

To stop someone from having something they need or should have, by taking it away or not letting them have it.

वापर नमुना: to deprive [someone] of [something]
सामान्य चूक:
Learners often say *"deprive someone from something"* instead of the correct pattern *"deprive someone of something"*. Another common confusion is between **"deprive"** (take something away) and **"deprave"** (make morally bad).

To take away someone’s official right, job, or legal position by a formal or legal decision.

वापर नमुना: to deprive [someone] of [a right / status / position]
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes use this formal sense in everyday contexts where a simpler verb like *take away* or *remove* is more natural. Also, they may forget that this sense is usually used in official or legal situations, often in the passive voice: *"He was deprived of his license."*
समानार्थी शब्द
disqualify (Used when someone is officially stopped from taking part in an activity or competition, not usually for general rights.) | disenfranchise (More specific and technical; used mainly for taking away the right to vote.) | divest (Formal; can mean removing powers, rights, or property, especially in legal or business contexts.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
restore (Opposite in legal/formal contexts, where previously removed rights or status are given back.) | entitle (Opposite because it gives someone a right or claim, instead of taking it away.)
