ganvaane(m): waste

Description of ganvaane: Ganvaane is an Urdu verb meaning "to lose" or "to waste," particularly referring to squandering time, opportunities, or moments in a careless manner. Unlike mere loss through misfortune, it implies deliberate or frivolous dissipation. Differs from "nuqsaan" , as ganvaane focuses on avoidable depletion rather than harm. In poetry, it evokes regret, as in "zindag? ek fan hai lamhoñ ko apne and?z se gañv?ne k?," lamenting life's brevity wasted stylishly.
