समेत
Also and Even in News Style
समेत adds one more person or thing, often a surprising or important one. It joins the noun.
How It Works
The word समेत is a formal word for also, even or including. It joins the noun before it.
| Sentence | Sense |
|---|---|
| बच्चाहरूसमेत खेलमा सहभागी भए। | even the children |
| मन्त्रीसमेत सात जना घाइते भए। | including the minister |
| बाढीले घरसमेत बगायो। | even the house |
Often the thing named with समेत is the last or the most surprising item. The sentence is complete without it, so समेत only adds that one more person or thing.
In speech people use पनि: बच्चाहरू पनि सहभागी भए. समेत is for news, notices and written reports. The word never changes.
Examples (4)
- प्रधानमन्त्रीसमेत कार्यक्रममा उपस्थित थिए।

प्रधानमन्त्रीसमेत joins the noun.
- बच्चाहरूसमेत खेलमा सहभागी भए।
Even the children took part in the game.
समेत follows the plural noun.
- उनले आफ्नो गहनासमेत बेचिन्।
She even sold her jewelry.
समेत points to the last item.
- मन्त्रीसमेत सात जना घाइते भए।
Seven people, including the minister, were injured.
जना stays a separate word.
Common Mistakes
