1

feeling admiration or respect

Feeling that someone or something is very good, important, or special.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] is impressed by/with [something or someone]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say *"impressed about"* instead of *"impressed by/with"*. Use "by" or "with": "I am impressed by your work" or "I am impressed with your work," not "about your work." They may also confuse "impressed" (how you feel) with "impressive" (describing the thing that causes the feeling).
ہم معنی الفاظ
admiring (Focuses more on warm, positive feeling; less on being surprised by quality.) | amazed (Stronger and more emotional; suggests surprise as well as admiration.)
متضاد الفاظ
unimpressed (Direct opposite; shows no admiration or interest despite expectations.) | disappointed (Shows a negative reaction because something was worse than expected, rather than good.)

فعل B1 action
2

caused admiration in someone

Made someone think you or something are very good or special.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone/something] impressed [someone] (with [something])
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "impress" without an object when this sense needs one. Say "She impressed me" or "The film impressed the audience," not just "She impressed" or "The film impressed" (unless you add "me/us/everyone"). Also avoid saying *"impress on"* when you mean "impress" in this sense; "impress on/upon" is a different, more formal meaning.
ہم معنی الفاظ
amazed (Stronger and more emotional; often suggests surprise, not just respect.) | wow (Informal and emotional; often used in speech rather than in careful writing.)
متضاد الفاظ
disappoint (Opposite effect: to make someone feel something is worse than they expected.) | underwhelm (Shows a weak or negative reaction when something was expected to impress.)

adjective B2 property
3

having a pressed-in mark

Having a picture, mark, or words pushed into a surface so they stay there.

استعمال کا انداز: [object] is impressed with [design/mark]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this physical meaning with the emotional one. If you are talking about how someone feels, use the emotional sense: "I am impressed by her work." If you are talking about a surface with a design pressed into it, this physical meaning is correct: "The logo is impressed on the coin."
ہم معنی الفاظ
embossed (Often implies a raised design rather than simply pressed into a surface.) | stamped (Highlights the action of hitting or pressing a design onto a surface, often with a tool.)
متضاد الفاظ
smooth (Describes a surface without any pressed-in or raised marks.) | unmarked (Emphasizes that there are no designs or signs on the surface.)

فعل formal B2 action
4

made someone strongly remember

Made someone understand or remember something very well by saying it strongly or many times.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] impressed [idea/fact] on/upon [someone]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this with simply "impress" meaning "make someone admire you." In this formal sense, it usually appears as "impress on/upon someone" and talks about ideas, rules, or facts, not about skill or talent. For example, "He impressed on me the value of time" (taught me strongly), not "He impressed me the value of time," which is wrong.
ہم معنی الفاظ
stress (Focuses on giving extra importance when saying something, not always on memory.) | emphasize (Very close in meaning but more general; does not always suggest a lasting effect on memory.)
متضاد الفاظ
downplay (Means to make something seem less important, the opposite of stressing it.) | ignore (To give something no attention at all, instead of making it strongly remembered.)

فعل archaic C1 action
5

forced into military service

Made someone go into the army, navy, or other service by force, not by their own choice.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] was impressed into [service/the navy/army]
عام غلطی:
Learners may not recognize this rare, historical meaning and may mistakenly interpret it as the common emotional sense. Context with words like "into the navy" or "into service" usually signals this old, historical use.
ہم معنی الفاظ
conscripted (Still used today; usually refers to compulsory military service under law rather than sudden force.) | pressed (Short historical form; often used specifically for taking sailors by force.)
متضاد الفاظ
enlisted (Means to join the military by choice, the opposite of being forced.) | volunteered (Emphasizes that someone offered to serve freely, not under pressure.)
