استعمال کا انداز:
[something] is horrible; a horrible [noun]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "horrible" only for scary things. In modern English, it is very common for general negative opinions, similar to "terrible" or "awful". Also, learners may overuse "very horrible"; more natural options are "really horrible" or "absolutely horrible".
ہم معنی الفاظ
terrible (Very close in meaning; slightly more common in both spoken and written English for general negative judgments.)
متضاد الفاظ
wonderful (Describes something extremely good or pleasant, the opposite of something horrible in this everyday sense.)

Feeling very sick or feeling very bad because you are sad or sorry about something.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] feels horrible (about [something])

awful (Can describe both physical sickness and strong emotional discomfort, like "horrible" in this sense; slightly softer in some contexts.)
متضاد الفاظ
great (In informal speech, "feel great" is a common opposite of "feel horrible" for both physical and emotional states.)

Very cruel or very wrong, so that people feel shocked and angry.

4
causing fear, horror, or disgust
Very scary or very shocking to see, hear, or think about.
استعمال کا انداز:
a horrible [monster/nightmare/scene]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this sense with simple dislike. Saying a "horrible monster" suggests something truly frightening, not just something you don't like. For mild dislike, words like "ugly" or "scary" may fit better.
ہم معنی الفاظ
horrific (Often slightly more formal and used in news; focuses strongly on the horror or shock caused by an event or image.)
متضاد الفاظ
pleasant (Describes something that is nice and enjoyable, the opposite of something frightening or disgusting.)
