lasting for a very short time

Happening or existing for a very short time only.

ਵਰਤੋਂ ਦਾ ਢਾਂਚਾ: a momentary [noun]
ਆਮ ਗਲਤੀ:
Learners sometimes confuse "momentary" with "momentous". "Momentary" means lasting for a very short time, while "momentous" means very important or significant. For example, "a momentary problem" is a short, brief problem, but "a momentous decision" is a very important decision.
ਸਮਾਨਾਰਥਕ ਸ਼ਬਦ
brief (Neutral and very common; does not stress how extremely short the time is as strongly as 'momentary'.) | fleeting (Suggests something that passes almost too quickly to notice; slightly more literary than 'momentary'.) | short-lived (Often used for states or events that end quickly but may last longer than a 'momentary' one.)
ਵਿਲੋਮ ਸ਼ਬਦ
lasting (Focuses on continuing for a long time, the opposite of something that ends quickly.) | permanent (Describes something that does not change or end, unlike something that is only momentary.)

working only while pressed

Used about a button or switch that works only when you keep your finger on it and stops when you let go.

ਵਰਤੋਂ ਦਾ ਢਾਂਚਾ: a momentary [switch/button/contact]
ਆਮ ਗਲਤੀ:
Learners may think "momentary" here just means "short" in time. In technical contexts, it specifically describes how a button or switch behaves: it works only while pressed and does not stay on by itself.
ਸਮਾਨਾਰਥਕ ਸ਼ਬਦ
non-latching (Technical term emphasizing that the switch does not stay in the on position after being pressed.) | spring-loaded (Describes a similar mechanism that returns to its original position, though not all spring-loaded switches are strictly momentary.)
ਵਿਲੋਮ ਸ਼ਬਦ
latching (Describes a switch that stays in its new state after being pressed, the opposite of a momentary switch.)
