Causing harm or damage

Causing harm, damage, or a bad result.

பயன்பாட்டு முறை: [something] is detrimental to [something]
பொதுவான தவறு:
Learners sometimes say *"detrimental for"* instead of the more natural pattern *"detrimental to"* (e.g., say "detrimental to health," not "detrimental for health"). They may also overuse it in very casual speech, where "bad for" or "harmful to" would sound more natural.
இணைச்சொற்கள்
harmful (More general and more common in everyday speech; slightly less formal than "detrimental.") | damaging (Stresses the actual damage done; can sound a bit stronger or more concrete than "detrimental.") | adverse (Common in formal or technical contexts, especially about conditions or effects.)
எதிர்ச்சொற்கள்
beneficial (Highlights that something produces good results instead of harm.) | advantageous (Stresses that something gives a benefit or advantage, the opposite of a negative effect.)
