1

extremely funny; hilarious

Very, very funny and making people laugh a lot.

استعمال کا انداز: [something] is hysterical; find [something] hysterical
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes think 'hysterical' always means 'very upset'. In informal modern English, it is also very common to use 'hysterical' to mean 'extremely funny'. Use the context: if people are laughing, it usually means 'very funny'; if someone is crying or shouting, it means 'very upset'.

extremely upset and out of control

Very, very upset or afraid so that you cannot control your feelings or actions.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] is/gets/becomes hysterical; [someone] is hysterical with [emotion]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use 'hysterical' for any strong feeling. It is best used when the person has lost control of their emotions, for example screaming, crying, or shaking. For normal strong feelings that are still controlled, words like 'very upset', 'very angry', or 'terrified' are more accurate.
ہم معنی الفاظ
frenzied (Emphasizes wild, uncontrolled behavior, sometimes with physical movement.) | hysteric (Less common and more negative; often focuses on a person rather than the emotional state.) | out of control (Less specific; can describe behavior in general, not only emotional states.)
متضاد الفاظ
calm (Describes someone who is in control of their emotions and not visibly upset.)

عام غلطی:

ہم معنی الفاظ
psychosomatic (Focuses on physical symptoms caused or influenced by the mind, without the historical gendered assumptions of 'hysterical'.)
متضاد الفاظ
organic (In medical use, refers to conditions caused by physical changes in the body, not by psychological causes.)
