a worker who builds with stone or brick
A person whose job is to build or fix walls and buildings made of stone, brick, or concrete.
वापर नमुना:
[someone] works as a mason
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes confuse "mason" with the general word "builder" or "construction worker". A mason is specifically someone who works with stone, brick, or similar materials, not just any kind of building work. Learners also sometimes think it means a machine because of tools like "mixer"; it always refers to a person in this sense.
समानार्थी शब्द
stonemason (More specific; clearly refers to someone who works mainly with stone rather than brick or other materials.)
|
bricklayer (Common term for a worker who lays bricks; overlaps strongly but may not include all types of masonry work.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
demolition worker (Does the opposite kind of job, taking buildings apart rather than building or repairing them.)

member of the Freemasons
A person who is a member of a group called the Freemasons, a traditional men’s club with special rules and meetings.
वापर नमुना:
[someone] becomes a Mason
सामान्य चूक:
Learners often do not realize that "Mason" with a capital M can mean a member of the Freemasons, not a person who works with stone or brick. In writing, this sense is usually capitalized; the job meaning is usually lowercase.
समानार्थी शब्द
Freemason (More explicit and common term; always clearly refers to the fraternal organization and avoids confusion with the construction trade.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
outsider (Someone who does not belong to the Freemasons and is not part of their group or meetings.)

वापर नमुना:
[someone] masons [something]
सामान्य चूक:
This verb form is rare in everyday English and may sound odd in casual conversation. Learners usually should say "build a brick wall" or "lay bricks" instead of "mason a wall" unless they are in a technical or trade context.
समानार्थी शब्द
build (More general; does not specifically mean using stone or brick with mortar, while "mason" focuses on that method.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
