very early childhood (0–2 years)

The first part of a person’s life, when they are a very young baby.

वापर नमुना: [someone] in infancy / from infancy
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes confuse “infancy” with “pregnancy” or “birth.” “Infancy” refers to the baby’s early life after birth, not the time before birth. They also sometimes use it like an adjective (*an infancy child*), but the correct form is *an infant child* or simply *an infant*.
समानार्थी शब्द
early childhood (More general and covers a slightly longer period than strict infancy.) | babyhood (Informal, emphasizes the time when the child is still a baby.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
adulthood (Refers to the fully grown stage of life, opposite end of the life course from infancy.) | maturity (Focuses on being fully developed physically or mentally, unlike the helpless state of infancy.)

very early stage of development

The first, very early stage in the growth of a thing like a company, idea, or technology.

वापर नमुना: [something] is in its infancy
सामान्य चूक:
Learners may try to say *“on its infancy”* instead of the fixed phrase *“in its infancy.”* Another mistake is using *infancies* for different projects; usually we talk about *the infancy of* something or say it is *in its infancy* rather than using a plural form.
समानार्थी शब्द
early stage (Very close in meaning, but more general and less metaphorical than “infancy.”) | birth (Often used metaphorically for the start of something, but focuses on the moment of beginning rather than the whole early period.) | nascent stage (More formal and technical; emphasizes something just coming into existence.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
maturity (Describes a state of full development, the opposite of an early, experimental stage.) | peak (Refers to the highest or most advanced point, in contrast to the beginning phase.)

legal status of being a minor

In legal language, the state of being too young to be a legal adult.

वापर नमुना: infancy under [a law] / during infancy
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes assume the legal term “infancy” always refers only to babies. In legal contexts, it often covers the entire period before legal adulthood, not just the first two years of life.
समानार्थी शब्द
minority (Standard legal term for being under the legal age of adulthood; more common in modern legal writing than “infancy.”)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
majority (Legal term for reaching the age at which a person is considered an adult, opposite of legal infancy.)
