Very interesting and a bit mysterious

Very interesting in a way that makes you curious, often because it is a little strange or not fully explained.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] finds [something] intriguing
عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "intriguing" with "intrigued". "I am intriguing" means that you cause interest in others, while "I am intrigued" means that you feel interested or curious. For example, say "I am intrigued by this idea," not "I am intriguing by this idea."
ہم معنی الفاظ
fascinating (Stronger than "intriguing" and usually more clearly positive in tone.) | compelling (Adds a sense of being hard to ignore or turn away from, not just interesting.) | interesting (More general and weaker; does not always suggest mystery or strangeness.)

Strongly interesting or fascinating someone

To make someone feel very interested and curious, often because something is not simple or is a little mysterious.

استعمال کا انداز: [something] is intriguing [someone]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes add an unnecessary preposition and say "it intrigues to me" instead of "it intrigues me" or "it is intriguing me." Also, many situations where English speakers use the verb "intrigue" can be expressed more simply with "interest," which is more common.

Secretly plotting or scheming

To plan secretly, often in a bad or dishonest way, to hurt someone or to get power or benefit.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] is intriguing against [someone]
عام غلطی:
This sense is rare and literary. Learners often think all uses of "intriguing" mean "interesting" and may misunderstand sentences about people "intriguing against" someone, which actually means they are secretly plotting, not just finding something interesting.
ہم معنی الفاظ
plotting (Very close in meaning, but more common and slightly less formal than this sense of "intriguing.") | scheming (Emphasizes secret and often dishonest planning to get an advantage.)
متضاد الفاظ
supporting (To help or stand behind someone openly, which is the opposite of secretly working against them.)
