Origin & History

From the verb imprison, from Old French emprisoner (to imprison), from en- 'to put in' + prison; ultimately from Latin prehensio/prehendere via Romance developments.

imprison क्रिया से, जो पुरानी फ़्रेंच emprisoner (कैद करना) से आई है; en- (अंदर/में डालना) + prison (जेल) से मिलकर बना; मूल रूप से लैटिन की पकड़ने/थामने वाली धातुओं से रोमांस भाषाओं के माध्यम से विकसित।

Definition

Imprisoned means someone has been put into prison or kept confined, usually as punishment or by legal order; it can also be used figuratively for being trapped or unable to leave.

Imprisoned का मतलब है किसी को जेल में डालना या बंद करके रखना, आमतौर पर सज़ा या कानूनी आदेश के कारण; इसका रूपक अर्थ भी हो सकता है—फँसा हुआ या बाहर न निकल पाने की स्थिति।
