happening or expected soon
happening or coming soon.
استعمال کا انداز:
forthcoming [event/thing]
عام غلطی:
Learners often think "forthcoming" can be used for something that is just possible or imagined. It usually refers to events that are already planned or expected. Many learners also overuse "will come" instead of the more natural "forthcoming" or "upcoming" in formal writing.

2
willing to talk or share
ready and willing to give information or help, and not hiding things.
استعمال کا انداز:
be forthcoming (with [information/help])
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this sense with the time-related meaning and say things like *"a forthcoming person"* to mean "a person who is coming soon." Here it means someone who shares information. Learners also sometimes say *"he forthcomingly answered"*, but "forthcoming" is not used as an adverb.

provided or available when required
given or available when people need or ask for it, especially after waiting.
استعمال کا انداز:
[something] is forthcoming
عام غلطی:
Learners may misread this sense as a simple future meaning and translate it as "will come". In contexts like "funding was not forthcoming", it specifically means the money did not appear or was not given, even though people expected it.
ہم معنی الفاظ
available (Very general; does not always carry the idea of being expected or delayed.)
|
forthcoming (Already the headword; no close single-word synonym fully matches the nuance of "expected but not yet supplied".)
متضاد الفاظ
withheld (Stresses that something is deliberately not given, even though it is expected.)
|
lacking (Emphasizes that something needed is simply not there.)
