repairing and improving a building
Work done to fix and improve a building or room so it looks and works better or more modern.
استعمال کا انداز:
a renovation of [a building / a room]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "renovation" with "innovation." "Renovation" is about fixing or improving something that already exists, usually a building or room, while "innovation" is about creating new ideas or new ways of doing things. Learners may also say *"do a renovation in the house"* instead of more natural phrases like "do a renovation of the house" or "renovate the house." Another common mistake is treating it as always uncountable; in fact, both are possible: "The house needs renovation" (uncountable) and "They did three major renovations" (countable).

renewal or improvement of systems
Changes that make a system, group, or way of thinking better, stronger, or more modern again.
استعمال کا انداز:
the renovation of [a system / an institution]
عام غلطی:
Learners may overuse this abstract sense in everyday conversation where simpler words like "change" or "improvement" are more natural. "Renovation" in this sense is relatively formal and more common in speeches, news, or academic writing. It is also easy to mix up with "revolution"; "renovation" suggests improvement or renewal, not a sudden and complete change of a system.
ہم معنی الفاظ

|

|

متضاد الفاظ
decline (Describes a system or organization becoming weaker or worse instead of being improved.)
|
