belonging naturally; essential
Being a natural, basic part of something, not coming from outside.
استعمال کا انداز:
[something] is intrinsic to [something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "intrinsic" when they only mean "very important". "Intrinsic" should be used when something is a natural, built-in part of something, not just important. It is also often confused with "instinctive", which means something you do automatically without thinking.

coming from within, not outside
Coming from inside a person or thing, not because of outside rewards, pressure, or help.
استعمال کا انداز:
intrinsic [abstract noun]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "intrinsic motivation" with "strong motivation". Intrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from inside the person (for example, because the activity is interesting), not from outside rewards like money or grades. Do not say *"very intrinsic motivation"* when you mean "very strong motivation".
ہم معنی الفاظ
internal (Focuses on being inside; less specific about being a source of motivation or value.)
|
innate (Suggests something you are born with, which may or may not be related to current inner motivation or value.)
|
self-motivated (Used mainly about people; highlights personal drive rather than the inner quality of an activity or thing.)
متضاد الفاظ
extrinsic (Used especially in psychology and education to describe motivation or rewards that come from outside, like money or grades.)
|
external (General word for coming from outside rather than from within the person or thing.)

located within the same body part
In medicine, used about muscles or parts that are inside the body part where they work, not coming from outside it.

ہم معنی الفاظ
internal (General word for inside the body or organ; does not specifically contrast with extrinsic muscles.)
