WORD-1: Blurring away
Sandarbh (Context):
"As one progresses through one’s 50s, a few things start blurring away slowly from your life’s rear-view mirror. e.g. The ability to read at length. Books, which you once stopped reading only to shift position if alerted of an imminent meteor strike, now tease your concentration after a few pages." - The Times of India
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Blurring away" ka matlab hota hai kisi cheez ka dheere-dheere dhundhla ho jaana ya kam hota jaana. Jaise jaise umar badhti hai, kuch cheezein—jaise focus, hobbies ya physical stamina—humari zindagi se dheere-dheere fade ho jaati hain, jaise rear-view mirror mein cheezein dhundhli ho jaati hain.
Arth (Meaning): Dheere-dheere dhundhla hona ya kam hota jaana (Phrasal Verb)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): blur-ing uh-way
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐
Utpatti (Etymology): "Blurring" verb "blur" se aaya hai, jiska matlab hota hai unclear ya hazy banana; "away" yeh dikhata hai ki yeh process time ke saath door hota ja raha hai.
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Yeh expression metaphorically use hota hai life ke un aspects ke liye jo age ke saath naturally fade ho jaate hain—jaise memory, attention span, ya passions. Yeh ek poetic aur emotional expression hai jo introspection ko provoke karta hai.
Samanarthi & Vipritarthi (Synonyms & Antonyms):
Samanarthi (Synonyms): fade away, dissolve, dim, disappear
Vipritarthi (Antonyms): sharpen, emerge, focus, become clear

WORD-2: Imminent
Context:
"As one progresses through one’s 50s, a few things start blurring away slowly from your life’s rear-view mirror. e.g. The ability to read at length. Books, which you once stopped reading only to shift position if alerted of an imminent meteor strike, now tease your concentration after a few pages." - The Times of India
Explanatory Paragraph:
The word "imminent" describes something that is about to happen very soon. It conveys urgency and the idea that an event is looming close in time. In the example given, the phrase "imminent meteor strike" uses the word to stress how urgently threatening the situation would have to be for the person to put down a book, emphasizing their past dedication to reading.
Meaning: Jo bahut jaldi hone wala ho, bilkul kareeb ho.
Pronunciation: im-uh-nuhnt
Difficulty Level: ⭐⭐ Beginner
Etymology: From Latin "imminentem", present participle of "imminere" meaning ‘to overhang, be near’.
Prashant Sir's Notes:
“Imminent” is a classic vocabulary word that often appears in news headlines and formal speech. Use it when there’s a strong sense that something significant is about to occur. It's frequently used with disasters or warnings, but can also apply to positive events (“imminent breakthrough”).
Synonyms & Antonyms:

Antonyms: distant, remote, delayed, eventual, postponed
Usage Examples:

Cultural Reference:
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance." - Franklin D. Roosevelt, addressing the imminent economic challenges of the Great Depression.
Think About It:
How does your reaction differ when something is ‘imminent’ versus ‘eventual’? Does urgency help or hinder your decision-making?
Quick Activity:
List three situations in your life where you faced an imminent decision. Use the word “imminent” in each sentence.
Memory Tip:
Think of “imminent” as something that’s *in a minute* — it’s almost here! The sounds even line up: im-uh-nuhnt → "in-a-minute".
Real-World Application:
“Imminent” is widely used in legal, scientific, and media contexts to indicate urgency. For instance, weather alerts often refer to “imminent danger,” and security briefings discuss “imminent threats.” It’s a useful word in both professional and everyday settings.
WORD-3: Dreaded
Sandarbh (Context):
"But the one thing you don’t expect is the dreaded mail from HR with the subject just stating “Meeting”, where you and your manager are the only invitees. It feels like a wedding invitation from an ex-girlfriend who dumped you on Diwali." - The Times of India
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Dreaded" ka matlab hota hai koi aisi cheez jo itni buri ya scary ho ki usse dekhte hi ya sochte hi dar lagta hai. Jaise HR ka ek aisa email jiska subject sirf "Meeting" ho—yeh sunte hi kisi ka bhi dil dhak-dhak karne lagta hai. Is word mein hamesha ek emotional tension hoti hai.
Arth (Meaning): Bahut darawana ya anxiety dene waala (Adjective)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): DRED-id
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐
Utpatti (Etymology): "Dread" word se aaya hai, jiska matlab hota hai bhay ya ghabrahat; "dreaded" iska past participle form hai jo kisi darawani cheez ko describe karta hai.
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
"Dreaded" ek emotionally charged word hai. Yeh zyada tar informal ya dramatic contexts mein use hota hai—jaise dreaded exam, dreaded call, ya dreaded truth. Iska tone hamesha thoda anxious aur exaggerated hota hai.

WORD-4: Insidious
Sandarbh (Context):
"The Bharatiya Janata Party has reversed its own publicly stated policy position and agreed to an all-caste census. It is a recognition that “principled” policy positions only enjoy sanctity as long as they do not create the conditions of electoral setbacks and loss of power. Caste – perhaps the most insidious and pernicious form of social distinction known to humankind – structures Indian life in inescapably violent ways." - The Indian Express
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Insidious" ka matlab hota hai koi aisi cheez jo pehle toh harmless ya normal lagti hai, lekin dheere-dheere woh aapke liye bahut harmful sabit hoti hai. Ye usually aise dangers ko describe karta hai jo chupke se badhte hain—jaise caste system ka societal effect ya kisi toxic ideology ka silent impact.
Arth (Meaning): Dheere-dheere aur chhupke se nuksaan pahunchane waala (Adjective)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): in-SID-ee-uhs
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐⭐

Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
"Insidious" ek sophisticated aur serious word hai, jo often long-term aur hidden harm ke liye use hota hai. Iska use academic writing, social commentary, ya literature mein bahut common hai—specially jab kisi system ya thought process ke negative effects describe karne ho.

"Insidious" = "Inside + hideous" — matlab andar se darawana ya harmful.
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Workplace politics ya passive-aggressive behavior often insidious hota hai—yeh dikhne mein normal lagta hai, lekin logon ki productivity aur morale ko dheere-dheere affect karta hai.
WORD-5: Combat
Sandarbh (Context):
"Last week, the world paid careful attention to the air clashes between India and Pakistan. The international interest did not stem from purely altruistic concern. Governments everywhere are keen to understand how weapons systems actually perform in the unpredictable chaos of combat." - The Indian Express
