Grilled

/ɡrɪld/

ग्रिल्ड; (बोलचाल) कड़ी पूछताछ किया हुआ

Origin & History

From the verb 'grill' (to cook over a grill), via French 'griller' meaning 'to broil/roast'; 'grilled' is the past tense/past participle form.

क्रिया 'grill' (ग्रिल पर पकाना) से; यह फ्रेंच 'griller' (भूनना/सेकना) से आया है; 'grilled' इसका भूतकाल/भूतकृत रूप है।
