मकान (makan)


Explanation:
The word "house" meaning a place of dwelling, would be traslated into Hindi as मकान (makan).

The word "house" used as a verb, meaning to give accommodation to somebody or something will be treated in various ways in Hindi, as an example:

The factory was housed in a deep valley besides a river.

कारखाना नदी के किनारे एक गहरी घाटी में स्थित था।
(karkhana nadi ke kinare ek gahri ghati me sthith tha).
