physical energy and strength
Physical energy and strength that makes a person or animal feel lively and able to move and act easily.
استعمال کا انداز:
the vigour of [someone/something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes treat "vigour" as countable and say *"a vigour" or "many vigours"; this is incorrect. Use it as an uncountable noun: "full of vigour", "with great vigour". Learners may also confuse "vigour" with "rigour"; "vigour" is about energy and strength, while "rigour" is about strictness or difficulty.
ہم معنی الفاظ
vitality (Very close in meaning; often suggests overall health and life-force, not only momentary energy.)
|
energy (More general and frequent word; can refer to mental or physical power, not always the strong, healthy quality implied by "vigour".)
متضاد الفاظ
weakness (Suggests a lack of physical strength or energy, the opposite of having vigour.)
|
fatigue (A state of being very tired and having little energy, which contrasts with high vigour.)

energy and determination in actions
A lot of energy and strong will that a person shows when they do something.
استعمال کا انداز:
do [something] with vigour
عام غلطی:
Learners may mistakenly use "vigour" as an adjective (*"a vigour speech"); the correct adjective is "vigorous" ("a vigorous speech"). Also, learners sometimes use "vigour" only for physical activity; note that it is common for mental or social activity, as in "intellectual vigour" or "political vigour".
ہم معنی الفاظ
zest (Adds a sense of enjoyment and excitement, not just strong effort.)
|
drive (Focuses more on inner motivation to achieve goals, while "vigour" highlights the active energy shown.)
متضاد الفاظ
apathy (Lack of interest and energy, the opposite of energetic, determined action.)
|
half-heartedness (Doing something without strong interest or effort, contrasting with doing it with vigour.)

strength or intensity of activity
How strong or intense an activity or process is, for example a debate, the economy, or a market.
استعمال کا انداز:
the vigour of [an activity/process]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this abstract sense with simple physical energy. When "vigour" is used with words like "economy", "market", or "debate", it refers to how strong or active those things are, not to people being physically energetic.
ہم معنی الفاظ
intensity (Very close in meaning but more general; does not always carry the positive, effective sense that "vigour" can have.)
|
robustness (Often used for systems or economies, stressing strength and ability to perform well, similar to "vigour" in abstract contexts.)
متضاد الفاظ
weakness (Lack of strength or effectiveness in an activity or system, opposite to vigour.)
|
sluggishness (Slow, inactive performance of a process, contrasting with active, strong vigour.)

capacity for strong healthy growth
The power of a plant or animal to grow fast and stay healthy.
استعمال کا انداز:
the vigour of [a plant/organism]
عام غلطی:
Learners may not realise this is a technical use common in biology and agriculture. In scientific writing, it often appears in fixed phrases like "hybrid vigour" or "plant vigour" rather than alone.
ہم معنی الفاظ
vitality (Similar idea of life and health, but "vigour" in this sense is more technical and used in biology and agriculture.)
|
hardiness (Stresses resistance to difficult conditions; vigour focuses more on strong growth itself.)

stunted growth (Describes poor or limited growth, the opposite of strong vigour in plants.)

state of being legally in force
The condition of a law or rule when it is active and must be obeyed.
استعمال کا انداز:
[a law/rule] remains in vigour
عام غلطی:
Learners may expect the more common phrase "in force" instead of "in vigour". "In vigour" is formal and often used in legal or official texts, especially in some varieties of English influenced by other European legal traditions.
ہم معنی الفاظ
validity (More general legal term for being legally acceptable or in effect; "vigour" appears mainly in fixed legal phrases like "in vigour".)
|
force (As in "in force"; the standard expression; "in vigour" is a more formal or regional variant.)

expiry (The state of a law or agreement coming to an end, opposite to remaining in vigour.)

sexual energy and performance ability
Sexual energy and strength, especially for a man in sexual activity.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone's] sexual vigour
عام غلطی:
Learners may overuse this sense because they see it in advertisements or health articles. In everyday conversation, people often use more indirect phrases instead of talking directly about "sexual vigour".
ہم معنی الفاظ
virility (Focuses specifically on male sexual power and manliness; "vigour" is slightly broader and less marked for gender.)
|
potency (A more clinical or technical word, often used in medical or psychological contexts about male sexual ability.)
متضاد الفاظ
impotence (Refers to a lack of sexual power or inability to perform, opposite to sexual vigour.)
|
frigidity (Old-fashioned/technical term for lack of sexual desire, contrasting with strong sexual vigour.)
