Take heart
Idiom / PhraseSSC PYQ × 5To gain courage or confidence
हिम्मत बाँधना
He took heart from one honest sentence.
To take heart is a decision made after a fall.
Daily use: Iska matlab hausla milna.
दोनों का फ़र्क याद रखिए: take heart यानी हिम्मत जुटाना, और take something to heart यानी दिल पर लेना, बुरा मान जाना। जैसे हम कहते हैं 'दिल पे मत लेना' = don't take it to heart।
Keep the two apart: 'take heart' means to gather courage, while 'take something to heart' means to feel hurt by it. Just as we say 'dil pe mat lena' (don't take it to heart), 'take heart' alone says 'himmat rakho' (be brave).
इसका meaning है courage या confidence पाना; lose heart (हिम्मत हारना) सीधा opposite है, और take to heart look-alike trap है।
It means 'to gain courage or confidence'; 'lose heart' is the direct opposite, and 'take to heart' is the look-alike trap.
