اسم B1 state
1

state of being cut off from others

a state where a person, group, or place is away from other people and has very little contact with them

استعمال کا انداز: in isolation from [someone/something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "isolation" when they only mean a positive, peaceful time alone. In that case, "solitude" or "privacy" may be better. They also sometimes confuse "isolation" with "insulation" (used for keeping heat or sound in or out).
ہم معنی الفاظ
loneliness (focuses more on the sad feeling of being alone, while isolation can be more neutral or physical.) | seclusion (suggests being apart from others in a quiet or private way, sometimes by choice and not always negative.)
متضاد الفاظ

اسم B2 state

considering something on its own

a state where something is looked at alone, without thinking about other things that are connected to it

استعمال کا انداز: [something] in isolation
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this abstract, intellectual use of "in isolation" with the social sense of being alone. In sentences about data, results, or problems, "in isolation" usually means "on its own" or "without context," not physically alone.
ہم معنی الفاظ
separateness (a more abstract word that also means being separate, often used in formal or academic writing.)
متضاد الفاظ
context (refers to all the other related facts and situations, which is what is missing when something is seen in isolation.)

medical separation to stop infection

a state where a sick person, or someone who may be sick, stays away from other people so they do not spread disease

استعمال کا انداز: be in isolation for [length of time]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "quarantine" and "isolation" as if they are always the same. In medical English, "isolation" usually means keeping people who are known or strongly suspected to be infectious away from others, while "quarantine" is often for people who may have been exposed but are not known to be sick yet.
ہم معنی الفاظ
quarantine (very close in meaning, but "quarantine" is often used more generally for keeping people or animals away after possible exposure, while "isolation" usually refers to confirmed or likely cases.)
متضاد الفاظ
integration (suggests bringing someone back into normal contact with others, the opposite of keeping them separate in isolation.)

technical process of separating something

the process of taking one thing away from others so it is alone, often in science or engineering

استعمال کا انداز: the isolation of [something] from [something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "isolation" with "insulation" in technical speech. "Insulation" is usually about stopping heat, sound, or electricity from passing through something, while "isolation" is about separating one thing from others so it stands alone.
ہم معنی الفاظ
separation (a general word; "isolation" in this sense is more about separating something so it stands alone to be studied, used, or protected.)
متضاد الفاظ
integration (refers to combining things into a whole, which is the opposite of isolating one element from the others.)
