act of firing someone from a job
The act of telling a worker that they must leave their job and will not work there anymore.
استعمال کا انداز:
the dismissal of [someone] from [a job/company]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse “dismissal” with “resignation”. “Dismissal” means the employer ends the job; “resignation” means the worker chooses to leave. Another mistake is using “dismissal” as a verb (e.g. *they dismissal him*); the correct verb is “dismiss” (e.g. *they dismissed him*).
ہم معنی الفاظ
firing (More informal and common in everyday speech; focuses on the act itself rather than the legal or formal process.)
|
termination (More formal and technical; often used in HR and legal contexts instead of “dismissal”.)
متضاد الفاظ

refusal to take something seriously
The act of saying or showing that you do not care about someone’s idea or feeling and will not think about it.
استعمال کا انداز:
the dismissal of [something] as [adjective/noun]
عام غلطی:
Learners may think “dismissal” always means losing a job. In this sense, it is about not respecting or not considering an idea or feeling. Use the pattern “dismissal of [idea/concern]” rather than “dismissal about [idea]”.
ہم معنی الفاظ
disregard (Focuses on not paying attention; less emotional than “dismissal”, which can sound more rejecting or contemptuous.)
|
rejection (Broad term; “dismissal” often implies a quick or slightly contemptuous rejection.)
متضاد الفاظ
acceptance (Opposite attitude: being willing to consider, value, or agree with something instead of rejecting it.)
|
consideration (Opposite action: giving careful thought instead of quickly rejecting or brushing off something.)

ending of a legal case or charge
An official decision by a judge to stop a legal case or charge, often because there is not enough reason or evidence.
استعمال کا انداز:
the dismissal of [the case/charges/appeal]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this with someone being dismissed from a job. In legal news, “dismissal” usually refers to a court ending a case, not to employment. Note the fixed pattern “dismissal of the case/charges”, not *“dismissal the case”.
ہم معنی الفاظ
case dismissal (More explicit legal phrase; emphasizes that it is a legal case being ended.)
|
throw-out (of a case) (Informal expression often used in news reports to describe the same action.)
متضاد الفاظ
conviction (Opposite common outcome: instead of ending the case, the court finds the defendant guilty.)
|
indictment (Procedural opposite stage: formally bringing charges, rather than ending them.)

official end of school or class
The time when school or a class ends and students can leave.
استعمال کا انداز:
[school/class] dismissal at [time]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes think “dismissal” here means firing a teacher. In school schedules and letters, “dismissal” almost always refers to students leaving for the day. Use “dismissal time” or “school dismissal”, not *“dismissal hour” in most school English.
ہم معنی الفاظ
end of school (Everyday phrase; less formal than “school dismissal”, which is often used in schedules and notices.)
متضاد الفاظ
start of school (Opposite point in the school day: when students must arrive instead of leave.)

cricket event when batter is out
In cricket, the moment when a player who is batting is called out and must leave the field.
استعمال کا انداز:
[type] dismissal of [batter]
عام غلطی:
Learners who know general English may not realize that “dismissal” has this special sports meaning. In cricket contexts, it does not mean losing a job. Also, do not say *“he got a dismissal” for a job; that sounds like the cricket sense.
ہم معنی الفاظ
wicket (In cricket talk, losing a “wicket” often means a dismissal; however, “wicket” can also mean the set of stumps, so it is less precise.)
|
out (Very short and informal; describes the state of the batter rather than the event of the dismissal itself.)
متضاد الفاظ
not out (Opposite status of a batter: they remain in and have not suffered a dismissal.)
