Aromatic herb used in cooking

A plant with soft gray-green leaves that people use to give food more flavor.

استعمال کا انداز: to add [sage] to [a dish]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this plant meaning with the meaning of a 'wise person'. Also, they may treat it as countable when talking about the herb in general, saying *"I added some sages"* instead of *"I added some sage"* or *"a few sage leaves"*.
ہم معنی الفاظ
herb (More general; refers to any leafy plant used for flavor, not this specific plant.)

ہم معنی الفاظ
wise man (More everyday; often male-specific, while 'sage' can be gender-neutral or literary.) | guru (Often suggests a spiritual teacher or a trend leader, not just a thoughtful elder.)
متضاد الفاظ

استعمال کا انداز: sage [advice/words/counsel/remark]

ہم معنی الفاظ
wise (More common and general; 'sage' sounds more formal and serious.) | prudent (Focuses more on being careful and avoiding risk, not always on deep life wisdom.)
متضاد الفاظ
