    Pronunciation

    Proper noun

    [edit]

    India (pluralIndias)

    2. Acountry inSouth Asia. Official name:Republic of India. Capital:New Delhi.
      Synonyms:Hindustan,Bharat
      • 2024 February 15, Aishwarya S Iyer and Rhea Mogul, “‘Erasing a part of history’ – What a double mosque demolition tells us about India ahead of crucial election”, inCNN‎[1]:
        The demolition of two mosques inIndia within days of each other has highlighted the deep religious divide in the country, months before voters head to the polls for a nationwide election that is expected to hand Prime Minister Narendra Modi a rare third term in power.
    4. (chiefly historical, proscribed in modern use) Aregion ofSouth Asia, traditionally delimited by theHimalayas and theIndus river; theIndian subcontinent.
    5. (historical, often "British India") A territory of the British Empire, chiefly comprising the modern day countries of India,Pakistan,Bangladesh,Bhutan,Nepal andBurma.
    6. A femalegiven name.

    Usage notes

    [edit]
    • When discussing the pre-modern history of South Asia, naming the entire subcontinentIndia is common. For discussing the current states, which include the Republic of India, this can cause offense and confusion and is usually avoided with the termsIndian Subcontinent orSouth Asia (except in the specific context of discussingIndian reunification). At times when multiple countries existed in South Asia, these have sometimes been pluralised asIndias orIndies. The wordIndies survives in some place names such asEast Indies andWest Indies but is otherwise obsolete.
