adjective B1 property
1

artificial; not from nature

Made or caused by people, not by nature.

استعمال کا انداز: an unnatural [substance/thing/process]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "unnatural" instead of "artificial" for things like "unnatural intelligence" when the standard phrase is "artificial intelligence." Use "unnatural" more for describing how something contrasts with nature or looks/feels wrong, and "artificial" for most technical or product-related uses.

adjective B2 property
2

strange; not normal or expected

Strange for that situation; it does not feel normal or right.

استعمال کا انداز: it is unnatural to [verb]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say "very unnatural" when they just mean "unusual" or "a bit strange." "Unnatural" often suggests that something feels strongly wrong or disturbing, not just different.
ہم معنی الفاظ
abnormal (More formal and often used in medical, psychological, or technical contexts; can sound stronger than "unnatural.") | odd (More informal and general; focuses on something being strange but not necessarily wrong.)
متضاد الفاظ
normal (Emphasizes that something is usual or standard for that situation.) | natural (Focuses on something fitting easily or comfortably with what people expect or feel is right.)

adjective B2 property
3

forced or stiff in manner

Looking or sounding stiff, fake, or not relaxed, especially when a person talks, smiles, or moves.

استعمال کا انداز: an unnatural [smile/voice/laugh]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse "unnatural" with "fake." "Fake" usually means something is not real at all, while "unnatural" often means it is real but looks or feels stiff, strange, or not easy.
ہم معنی الفاظ
forced (Stresses that the action is done without real feeling or ease.) | stilted (More formal; often used for speech or writing that sounds stiff and unnatural.)
متضاد الفاظ
natural (Shows that behavior or expression seems easy, relaxed, and genuine.) | relaxed (Focuses on being comfortable and free, without stiffness.)

adjective formal C1 property
4

morally wrong; against nature

Seen as very wrong or shocking because it goes strongly against what people think is natural or morally right.

استعمال کا انداز: an unnatural [relationship/act/parent]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use this strong, moral sense when they only mean something is "unusual" or "strange." In everyday speech, use "strange" or "weird" for mild disapproval, and keep this sense of "unnatural" for serious moral or legal judgment.
ہم معنی الفاظ
perverse (Formal and strong; suggests a deliberate choice of what is morally wrong or twisted.) | deviant (Formal; stresses behavior that is very different from accepted social or sexual norms.)
متضاد الفاظ
wholesome (Emphasizes moral health and goodness, often in family or sexual behavior.) | proper (Stresses behavior that follows accepted social and moral rules.)
