made from silk fabric

Made of silk cloth.

استعمال کا انداز: [silken] [item made of fabric]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use 'silken' for any soft cloth, even when it is not made of silk. If you only mean that something feels soft, and it is not really silk, 'silky' or 'soft' is usually better.

smooth and soft like silk

Very smooth and soft, like silk, often used for hair, skin, or a voice.

استعمال کا انداز: [silken] [hair/skin/voice/touch/tones]
عام غلطی:
Learners often use only 'silky' and do not recognize 'silken' as a more literary or poetic choice. Also, some learners try to use 'silken' as a verb (e.g. *to silken the surface*), which is not natural; use 'make silky' or 'make smooth' instead.
ہم معنی الفاظ
silky (More common and everyday; 'silken' sounds more poetic or literary.) | velvety (Suggests rich smoothness, especially in voices or textures, but implies a thicker feel than 'silken'.) | smooth (More general and less expressive; does not automatically suggest luxury.)
متضاد الفاظ
rough (Describes a harsh or uneven texture or sound, the opposite of smooth and soft.) | harsh (Opposite for sound or manner; suggests something unpleasant to hear or feel.)
