विस्मयादिबोधक Interjection

Interjection = अचानक मन का भाव (खुशी, दुख, हैरानी, दर्द, घृणा) बताने वाला शब्द। इसका वाक्य के दूसरे शब्दों से व्याकरण वाला संबंध नहीं होता। इसके बाद आमतौर पर विस्मयादिबोधक चिह्न (!) आता है।

भावInterjection✓ उदाहरण
खुशीHurrah! / Hurray! · Wow! · Yippee!Hurrah! We have won the match.
दुख / शोकAlas! · Ah! (Ah = खुशी, दुख, हैरानी — तीनों में)Alas! He is no more.
हैरानीOh! · What! · Wow! · Good heavens!Oh! What a surprise! · What! You failed?
तारीफ़ / शाबाशीBravo! · Well done!Bravo! You played well.
दर्दOuch! · Ah! · Oh!Ouch! I hurt my finger.
घृणा / नापसंदFie! · Pooh! · Ugh! · Pshaw!Fie! You should be ashamed. · Ugh! What a smell!
राहतPhew!Phew! That was close.
ध्यान खींचना / अभिवादनHello! · Hi! · Hey! · Lo!Hello! How are you?
चुप करानाHush! · Sh!Hush! The baby is sleeping.
गलतीOops!Oops! I dropped the cup.
खोज / समझ आनाAha! · Eureka!Aha! Now I understand.
O और Oh में अंतर: O — संबोधन / प्रार्थना में, हमेशा capital, ठीक बाद में comma या ! नहीं: O God, help me! · O Lord, forgive us.  ·  Oh — हैरानी, दर्द, दुख: Oh! I forgot. / Oh, I see.
हल्का भाव हो तो comma: Oh, I see. · Well, let us start. तेज़ भाव हो तो !: Alas! He died young.
Interjection वाक्य से हटा दो, तो भी वाक्य पूरा रहता है: (Hurrah!) We have won.
सही interjection चुनो: ___! We have won the cup. (Hurrah / Alas) → Hurrah · ___! My mother is no more. (Alas / Bravo) → Alas · ___! You have done a great job. (Bravo / Ouch) → Bravo · ___! Don't make a noise. (Hush / Hurrah) → Hush · ___! That hurts. (Ouch / Hurrah) → Ouch
"___! I have passed the exam (Alas / Hurrah / Ouch)" (Hurrah) · "Which interjection shows sorrow? (Alas / Hurrah / Bravo)" (Alas) · "Bravo expresses —" (approval / praise) · "Identify the interjection: Oh! What a beautiful sight" (Oh) · "Correct use: O God / Oh God in a prayer" (O)
