§Grammar and usage

Usage: Enjoin can mean both to order and, in law, to forbid, so the meaning depends on the preposition: enjoin somebody to do something means order, and enjoin somebody from doing something means forbid.

Usage में enjoin का अर्थ आदेश देना भी है और कानून में रोकना भी, इसलिए अर्थ preposition से तय होता है: enjoin somebody to do something का अर्थ आदेश देना और enjoin somebody from doing something का अर्थ रोकना है।
