Origin & History

From back + set; modeled on and overlapping with the common noun setback; technical sense aligns with backset meaning a backward offset.

back + set से बना शब्द; सामान्य शब्द setback के समान/उससे प्रभावित; तकनीकी अर्थ में backset (पीछे की ओर ऑफ़सेट/हटाव) के रूप में भी प्रयुक्त।

Definition

A back-set is a setback or hindrance; in technical use it can mean a backward offset/recess (often written as backset).

back-set का अर्थ बाधा/विलंब या पीछे की ओर हुआ हटाव (setback) होता है; तकनीकी/स्थापत्य संदर्भ में यह पीछे की ओर बना ऑफ़सेट/धँसाव (recess) भी हो सकता है (अक्सर backset लिखा जाता है)।
