1
be financially successful
To do very well in money or business, usually for a long time.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone]/[a business] prospers in [business/activity]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use *prosper* as a transitive verb in this sense, saying things like "He prospered his business". This is incorrect; you should say "His business prospered" or "He helped his business prosper." Learners may also confuse *prosper* with *propose* because they look similar, but the meanings are completely different.

2
grow or develop very well
To grow or develop very well and be strong, healthy, or successful.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone]/[something] prospers in [conditions/place]
عام غلطی:
Learners may think *prosper* is only about money. In this sense it can be used more broadly, for example with children, plants, or ideas that are doing very well. Also, avoid saying "prosper well"; *prosper* already includes the idea of doing well.

flourish (Very close in meaning, often used for people, ideas, or plants that grow or develop well.)
متضاد الفاظ
decline (Describes becoming weaker, smaller, or worse instead of growing or doing well.)

3
make someone or something succeed
To make a person, plan, or group successful, usually in a formal or religious way of speaking.
استعمال کا انداز:
to prosper [someone]/[something]
عام غلطی:
This meaning is rare and mostly used in formal or religious language. Learners sometimes try to use it in normal conversation (e.g., "I will prosper you"), which sounds strange or old-fashioned. In everyday English, use phrases like "help you succeed" or "help your business grow" instead.
ہم معنی الفاظ
bless (Often used in religious language for asking God to give success, protection, or happiness; *prosper* here focuses more specifically on success.)
متضاد الفاظ
frustrate (In formal style, can mean to prevent plans or efforts from succeeding, the opposite of making them prosper.)
