quality and skill of making
How good and careful the work is when something is made or built.
వాడుక నమూనా:
the workmanship on [something]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
Learners sometimes use *workmanship* to talk about effort or the amount of work, saying things like "I admire your workmanship" when they mean "I admire how hard you worked." *Workmanship* is about the quality and skill of the finished product, not the effort or time. It is also an uncountable noun in this sense, so avoid forms like *workmanships*.
పర్యాయపదాలు
craftsmanship (Very close in meaning, but often suggests traditional or handmade skill a little more strongly than 'workmanship'.)
|
work quality (More general and less formal; focuses on how good the work is but lacks the idea of careful, skilled craft.)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
shoddy work (Emphasizes work that is done badly or cheaply, with low quality and little care, which is the opposite of good workmanship.)

thing made by a creator
Something that a person or God has made; their creation.
వాడుక నమూనా:
[someone]'s workmanship
సాధారణ తప్పు:
This sense is rare and mainly appears in religious or poetic writing. Learners sometimes try to use *workmanship* this way in everyday speech, but in modern everyday English, people almost always use *workmanship* to talk about quality of work, not about people or the world as God's workmanship.
పర్యాయపదాలు
creation (Very close in meaning, especially in religious or literary style; more common and can be used more broadly outside religious contexts.)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
creator (Refers to the one who makes something, not the thing that is made, so it is an opposite role in the same relationship.)
