文化背景

In traditional Indian culture, being slightly 'healthy' (a common euphemism for weight gain) was historically seen as a sign of wealth and prosperity. While modern urban India is very fitness-conscious, many grandmothers will still tell you that you've 'lost weight' as a way to encourage you to eat more.

💡

The 'Hinglish' Alternative

In big cities like Delhi or Mumbai, people often just say 'Weight put on karna' instead of the full Hindi phrase.

⚠️

Mind the Verb

Don't confuse `बढ़ना` (to increase on its own) with `बढ़ाना` (to cause to increase). You 'badhaate' (increase) your weight.

What It Means

This phrase is your go-to for talking about gaining weight.

It combines वजन (weight) with the verb बढ़ाना (to increase).

It is much softer than saying someone is "getting fat."

Think of it as the polite way to discuss body changes.

Whether it's muscle or fat, this phrase covers it all.

How To Use It

You treat it like any other transitive verb in Hindi.

Usually, you say मैंने वजन बढ़ाया है for "I gained weight."

If you are trying to gain, use वजन बढ़ाना चाहता हूँ.

It works perfectly with time markers like पिछले महीने (last month).

Don't forget to conjugate बढ़ाना based on the tense you need.

When To Use It

Use it at the gym when discussing your bulk phase.

It is perfect for doctor visits or health-related chats.

Friends often use it when they haven't seen each other.

"You look healthy" often implies you've gained a little weight.

It is a safe, neutral term for most social settings.

When NOT To Use It

Avoid using it if someone is sensitive about their body.

Even though it's neutral, body image is a tricky topic.

Don't use it as a direct insult in a heated argument.

In very formal medical reports, भार में वृद्धि might appear.

Stick to वजन बढ़ाना for 90% of your daily conversations.

Cultural Background

In India, elders often celebrate a little bit of weight gain.

It suggests you are eating well and living a happy life.

"Khate-peete ghar ke" means coming from a well-to-do family.

This phrase often pops up during festive seasons like Diwali.

Everyone eats too many sweets and jokes about gaining weight.

Common Variations

मोटा होना is the more direct, sometimes rude version.

सेहत बनाना is a very positive way to say "building health."

भारी होना is a more literal way to say "becoming heavy."

वजन पुट ऑन करना is common Hinglish used by younger city folks.

Choose your variation based on how close you are to them.

使用说明

The phrase is neutral and safe for all levels of formality. Just remember that when you are the one doing the action (like dieting to gain), use `बढ़ाना`, but if it's happening naturally, you can say `वजन बढ़ रहा है`.
