کو + Feeling + محسوس ہونا

Experiencing a Sensation

Level 4

Put the experiencer in a کو form and identify what is felt.

How It Works

Compare masculine درد and feminine سردی: درد محسوس ہو رہا ہے versus سردی محسوس ہو رہی ہے. The experiencer’s کو form is unchanged.

In the past, a feminine experience can take ہوئی or ہو رہی تھی. Choose the aspect according to whether you present the sensation as arising or already ongoing.

محسوس کرنا is a separate transitive construction. Do not take its subject marking and insert it into the کو plus محسوس ہونا pattern.

Examples (4)

  1. مجھے سردی محسوس ہو رہی ہے۔

    I am feeling cold.

    Feminine سردی controls رہی.

  2. مریم کو بازو میں درد محسوس ہو رہا ہے۔

    Maryam is feeling pain in her arm.

    Masculine درد controls رہا even though Maryam is feminine.

  3. اس خبر سے ہمیں خوشی محسوس ہوئی۔

    We felt happy at this news.

    Feminine خوشی selects ہوئی.

  4. مجھے کمرے میں گھٹن محسوس ہو رہی تھی۔

    I was feeling stifled in the room.

    Feminine گھٹن controls the past progressive phrase.
