dead; having no life
Dead; not living anymore, especially talking about a person or animal.
استعمال کا انداز:
a lifeless [body/person/animal]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "lifeless" instead of "dead" in everyday speech. "Dead" is more common and natural in most casual contexts (e.g., "My phone is dead," not "My phone is lifeless"). "Lifeless" is often used in more serious, descriptive, or written language, especially for bodies.

dull; lacking energy or spirit
Not lively or exciting; showing no energy or strong feeling.
استعمال کا انداز:
a lifeless [event/performance/voice/room]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse "lifeless" with "boring" or "tired." "Lifeless" usually describes the quality of something (a performance, voice, party) rather than a temporary feeling. We say "I feel tired" more often than "I feel lifeless."

having no living things present
Having no living things in it, or not able to be alive, like a rock or a planet without life.
استعمال کا انداز:
a lifeless [place/landscape/planet/object]
عام غلطی:
Learners might mix this sense with the figurative "boring" sense. If you mean "not interesting," use sense 2; if you mean "no living things are there," use this sense. In scientific or nature contexts, this environmental sense is usually intended.
ہم معنی الفاظ
barren (Often used for land that cannot produce plants or support life.)
|
inanimate (More technical/formal; describes objects that are not alive and do not move by themselves.)
متضاد الفاظ
habitable (Used especially for planets or environments that can support life.)
|
teeming with life (A phrase describing places full of many living things, the opposite of lifeless environments.)
