قلیل المدت مجمع
انٹرنیت پر کسی بہترین ڈکشنری کی غیر موجودگی کی وجہ سے اردو ترجمانوں کو عمومی طور پر اپنے ترجبے و مشاہدے اور اپنے پاس موجود دستی لغت سے ہی استفادہ حاصل کرنا پڑتا ہے۔

Note from asker:
| dear friend it is always not possible to have one word substitution in the target language.See Advanced Learners dictionary many foreign words are translated by a whole long sentence,for instance, Urdu word Hookah is translated as : hookah noun [C] a type of pipe which brings smoke through a container of water before it is breathed in |
Peer comment(s):

Thanks!!! But it is the most nearest translation. You haven't provided any good answer but instead you provided whole sentence, and even this sentence is also odd looking and unsuitable. As it is not necessary that people are gathering only for doing any

ہجوم، بھیڑ، اژدہام
ہجوم یا بھیڑ بذات خود ہی کم وقتی ہوتے ہیں ان کے ساتھ "قلیل المدت" یا "مختصر مدت" جیسی ترکیب لگانا میری ادنیٰ رائے میں مناسب نہیں۔
