Noun B2

commotion

/kəˈməʊʃn/

উচ্চারণ: কামোশন

হৈচৈ, উত্তেজনা বা বিশৃঙ্খলা

এমন এক অবস্থা যখন মানুষজনের মধ্যে হঠাৎ করে উত্তেজনা, গোলমাল বা বিশৃঙ্খলা সৃষ্টি হয়, প্রায়ই কোনো আকস্মিক ঘটনার কারণে।

A state of noisy confusion or disorder, often caused by a surprising or disruptive event.

Example

The sudden arrival of the celebrity caused a great commotion among the crowd.

Memory hook

‘কমোশন’ শব্দটি ‘কম’ + ‘মোশন’ – motion (গতি) কমে গিয়ে বিশৃঙ্খলা? বরং motion বেড়ে গিয়ে হৈচৈ! মনে রাখুন: commotion = motion (গতি) + com (একসাথে) = সবাই একসাথে ছোটাছুটি → হৈচৈ।
