Common mistakes
Not natural: He started rehabilitation to his knee injury.
Better: He started rehabilitation after his knee injury.
Use “after” to show when rehabilitation began; “to” does not express this time relationship.
यह बताने के लिए कि rehabilitation कब शुरू हुई, “after” कहें; यहाँ “to” सही नहीं है।
Not natural: She is in rehabilitation center.
Better: She is in a rehabilitation center.
A singular countable noun such as “center” usually needs an article like “a” or “the.”
“Center” एकवचन countable noun है, इसलिए उसके पहले आमतौर पर “a” या “the” लगाएँ।

Learner tip
Use “rehabilitation” for the process of regaining ability; “recovery” can describe the broader result.
क्षमता वापस पाने की प्रक्रिया के लिए “rehabilitation” कहें; “recovery” अक्सर पूरी तरह ठीक होने के व्यापक नतीजे को बताता है।
