words carved or written on something
Words or symbols that are cut or written on something hard, like a stone, building, or coin, usually to be kept for a long time.
استعمال کا انداز:
an inscription on [something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "inscription" with "description" or "subscription" because they look similar. "Inscription" is physical writing on an object, while a "description" is an explanation in words, and a "subscription" is an agreement to pay for a service. Learners may also think it means general "writing"; however, an inscription is specifically on a surface like stone, metal, or a monument and is usually meant to last.

متضاد الفاظ

short personal message in a book
A short note written inside a book or gift to say who it is for or to share a special message.
استعمال کا انداز:
an inscription in [a book / a copy of something]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this meaning with a full printed "dedication" page in a book. An inscription here is usually short, often handwritten, and personal. It is not the same as a book review or summary.
ہم معنی الفاظ
dedication (Often used for a formal or longer message in a book, or for the printed page at the front of a book naming the person it is dedicated to.)
|
note (More general; can be any short piece of writing and does not suggest it is written in a book as a lasting mark.)
متضاد الفاظ
undelivered (A gift with no personal message or name added stands in contrast to one with an inscription.)
|
unsigned (A book or gift with no name or personal words written in it contrasts with one that has an inscription.)

the act of inscribing something
The action of putting words or marks onto something, like stone or metal, so that they stay there.

engraving (Can refer both to the act and the result, and often suggests using tools to cut into a hard surface.)
