Pro Tip

Avoid redundancy

While 'समान के समान' is grammatically correct, in most contexts 'बराबर' or 'एक समान' is sufficient. Use the longer phrase only when emphasizing mutual equality explicitly.

Gold Rule

Formal contexts only

Reserve this phrase for legal documents, philosophical discussions, or mathematical proofs where mutual equality needs to be emphasized.

Word Origin

Composed of 'समान' (equal, same) + 'के' (of) + 'समान' (equal, same). The phrase literally means 'equal of equal' but functions as an emphatic expression of mutual equality.

Usage Notes

Primarily used in formal or academic contexts to stress mutual equality. Avoid in casual conversation where simpler terms like 'बराबर' (equal) or 'एक समान' (identical) suffice.
