महानगरीकृत; महानगर जैसा बनाया/बना हुआ

Origin & History

Formed from metropolitan + -ize (to make) + -ed (past participle), influenced by Greek metropolis ('mother city') via Latin and French.

metropolitan + -ize (बनाना/रूपांतरित करना) + -ed (भूतकालिक कृदंत) से निर्मित; मूलतः ग्रीक metropolis ('मुख्य/मातृ नगर') से, जो लैटिन और फ़्रेंच के माध्यम से अंग्रेज़ी में आया।

Definition

Describes a place, region, institution, or culture that has been changed to resemble or operate like a metropolis—typically through urban expansion, integration into a metro region, and adoption of big-city infrastructure, administration, and lifestyle.

किसी स्थान, क्षेत्र, संस्था या संस्कृति के उस रूपांतरण का वर्णन जो उसे महानगर जैसा बना दे—अक्सर शहरी विस्तार, महानगरीय क्षेत्र में एकीकरण, तथा बड़े शहर जैसी अवसंरचना, प्रशासन और जीवनशैली अपनाने के माध्यम से।
