Common mistakes
Not natural: I bought this dress in boutique.
Better: I bought this dress at a boutique.
Use an article before the singular countable noun, and “at” is natural for a shop.
Singular गिनने योग्य noun से पहले “a” लगाएँ; दुकान के लिए “at” कहना स्वाभाविक है।
Not natural: She opened a boutique of clothes.
Better: She opened a clothing boutique.
Use “clothing boutique” to describe the shop; “boutique of clothes” is not the usual phrase.
दुकान किस चीज़ की है, यह बताने के लिए “clothing boutique” कहें; “boutique of clothes” आम प्रयोग नहीं है।

Learner tip
A boutique is usually a small, carefully selected shop; it is not simply another word for any large store.
Boutique आमतौर पर छोटी और चुनिंदा सामान वाली दुकान होती है; यह हर बड़े स्टोर के लिए इस्तेमाल नहीं होता।
