Happening by chance, not intended

Happening without a plan; not something that a person wanted to happen.

استعمال کا انداز: an accidental [meeting/discovery/similarity]
عام غلطی:
Learners often say *"It was by accidental"* instead of *"It was accidental"* or *"It was by accident"*. Use **accidental** before a noun ("an accidental meeting") or after *be* ("it was accidental"), and use **by accident** as an adverb phrase ("I met him by accident").
ہم معنی الفاظ
unintentional (Focuses more on lack of purpose or will; often sounds slightly more formal or careful in tone.) | chance (Commonly used before nouns (a chance meeting); slightly more neutral and less explicit about lack of planning.)
متضاد الفاظ
deliberate (Stresses that something was planned or done on purpose, the opposite of happening by chance.)

Unintentional, especially of harm or damage

Happening without anyone wanting it to happen, especially when it causes harm or damage.

استعمال کا انداز: accidental [damage/injury/death/overdose]
عام غلطی:

ہم معنی الفاظ
unintentional (Neutral description that, like this sense of *accidental*, is often used in legal or formal contexts about blame and responsibility.) | inadvertent (More formal; often implies carelessness rather than simple chance.)
متضاد الفاظ
intentional (Directly contrasts with harm or damage that someone meant to cause.)

Not essential; incidental in nature

Describing a quality or fact that is connected to something but is not a basic, important part of what it is.

استعمال کا انداز: an accidental [feature/property/aspect]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this formal sense with the everyday idea of *"by chance"*. Here, **accidental** often contrasts with **essential** and means *"not a basic part"*, not necessarily something that happened randomly.
ہم معنی الفاظ
incidental (Very close in meaning; common in formal writing to describe secondary or minor features.) | nonessential (Directly states that something is not necessary; a bit more informal and transparent than *accidental* in this sense.)
متضاد الفاظ
essential (Describes a quality that is a necessary, defining part of something, the opposite of merely accidental or incidental.)

Musical sign that alters pitch

A sign in written music, like a sharp (♯), flat (♭), or natural (♮), that changes how high or low a note should sound.

استعمال کا انداز: an accidental [appears/is written before a note]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes think **accidental** in music means the note is played *by accident*. In music theory, an **accidental** is a normal symbol that changes the pitch of a note and is not a mistake.
ہم معنی الفاظ
sharp/flat/natural sign (More explicit description of the types of accidentals; names the specific symbols rather than the general category.)
متضاد الفاظ
key signature (Not a direct logical opposite, but contrasts as the fixed set of sharps or flats for an entire piece, while an accidental is a local exception.)
