involving a high chance of harm or loss
Having a big chance that something bad will happen, so it is not safe or smart to do.
استعمال کا انداز:
[something] is risky / it is risky to [do something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say *"risky for do something"* instead of the correct patterns: *"risky to do something"* (e.g., "It is risky to drive fast"), or *"risky for [someone]"* (e.g., "Running is risky for him"). Another common confusion is between "risky" and "risqué": "risky" means likely to cause harm or trouble, while "risqué" means sexually shocking or not polite.
