হিচাপে
As: হিচাপে
হিচাপে means “as”: ভাস্কৰে বেংকত কেৰাণী হিচাপে কাম কৰে “Bhaskar works as a clerk in a bank” and বৰ্ণালীয়ে মোক এই গামোচাখন উপহাৰ হিচাপে দিলে “Bornali gave me this gamosa as a gift”.
How It Works
হিচাপ means “account, calculation”, and হিচাপে is its form with -এ, “by way of, as”.
| It names | Example |
|---|---|
| a role | ভাস্কৰে বেংকত কেৰাণী হিচাপে কাম কৰে “Bhaskar works as a clerk in a bank” |
| a gift | বৰ্ণালীয়ে মোক এই গামোচাখন উপহাৰ হিচাপে দিলে “Bornali gave me this gamosa as a gift” |
| a way a thing is sold | মাছ কেজি হিচাপে বিক্ৰী কৰা হয় “fish is sold by the kilo” |
The word before হিচাপে stays bare. Say বন্ধু হিচাপে, with no -ক or -ৰ. The sentence around it keeps its own endings: মই এই খবৰটো সঁচা হিচাপে ধৰি লৈছোঁ “I am taking this news as true”.
The word is common in news writing, as in ৰাজধানী হিচাপে “as the capital”.
Examples (4)
- ভাস্কৰে বেংকত কেৰাণী হিচাপে কাম কৰে।
Bhaskar works as a clerk in a bank.
হিচাপে names the role, and কেৰাণী stays bare.
- বৰ্ণালীয়ে মোক এই গামোচাখন উপহাৰ হিচাপে দিলে।
Bornali gave me this gamosa as a gift.
হিচাপে names what the gamosa was given as.
- মাছ কেজি হিচাপে বিক্ৰী কৰা হয়।
Fish is sold by the kilo.
Here হিচাপে names the unit a thing is sold in.
- মই এই খবৰটো সঁচা হিচাপে ধৰি লৈছোঁ।
I am taking this news as true.
সঁচা is a describing word, and হিচাপে still follows it.
