"In a year of elections around the world, here is one where the incumbent president calls his predecessor a Nazi." - Indian Express
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Predecessor" ka matlab hota hai koi vyakti jo kisi post ya pad par aapke pehle tha. Jaise agar ek naya Prime Minister aata hai, toh jo pehle tha, woh uska predecessor hota hai. Yeh shabd politics, business, aur leadership roles ke transitions mein bahut use hota hai.
Arth (Meaning): Jo kisi position ya office mein pehle tha (Noun)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): PREH-duh-sess-er
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐ Basic
Utpatti (Etymology): Latin "praedecessor" se — 'prae' (pehle) + 'decessor' (retiring official), 'decessus' se bana hai, jo 'decedere' (depart hone) ka past participle hai
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Yeh shabd politics aur organizations mein bahut aata hai. Simply socho — "jo pehle tha." Iska use samajhne se leadership aur events ke sequence ko clearly samajhna easy ho jata hai.

Vipritarthi (Antonyms): successor, heir, follower

Chhoti Kriya (Quick Activity):
Teen roles list karo (jaise school principal, cricket team captain, prime minister) aur unke predecessor ke naam ya kalpnik naam likho.
Yaad Karne Ka Tarika (Memory Tip):
"Pre" matlab pehle + "decessor" matlab jo chala gaya — yaani, "jo pehle tha aur ab nahi hai."
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Jab aap kisi naye role mein aate ho, toh aapke predecessor ke kaam aur decisions ko samajhna zaroori hota hai. Isse aapko background milta hai aur naye changes plan karne mein madad milti hai.
WORD-2: Hounding
Sandarbh (Context):
"The current establishment is hounding the former president with a bunch of criminal cases." - Indian Express
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Hounding" ka matlab hota hai kisi ko baar-baar, aggressively ya continuously pareshaan karna ya peecha karna. Jaise shikaar karne wale dogs apne target ka peecha karte hain, waise hi yeh shabd kisi vyakti ke relentless chase ya harassment ko dikhata hai — especially jab kisi pe baar-baar cases, questions ya pressure banaya ja raha ho.
Arth (Meaning): Kisi ko lagataar pareshaan ya chase karna (Verb)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): HOWN-ding
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐⭐ Intermediate
Utpatti (Etymology): Old English "hund" se aaya hai, jiska matlab hota hai "dog"; yeh verb is idea se nikla hai jahan dogs apne shikaar ka peecha karte hain.
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Sochiye ek vyakti ko bina rukhe chase kiya ja raha ho — wahi hai "hounding". Yeh tab use hota hai jab kisi ko media, law authorities ya kisi power ke dwara baar-baar target kiya jata hai, aksar unfair tareeke se.
Samanarthi & Vipritarthi (Synonyms & Antonyms):
Samanarthi (Synonyms): harassing, persecuting, chasing, tormenting, pursuing

Chhoti Kriya (Quick Activity):
Ek short dialogue likhiye jisme ek character dusre se kehta hai ki woh hounded mehsoos kar raha hai. Kam se kam 2 baar word ka istemal zaroor karein.
Yaad Karne Ka Tarika (Memory Tip):
Sochiye kuch hounds (dogs) kisi aadmi ka peecha kar rahe hain — woh insaan “hounded” feel kar raha hai. Simple visual yaad rakhne mein madad karega.
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Jab kisi politician ya celebrity ko baar-baar media ya law cases ke zariye target kiya jata hai, toh "hounding" ka use hota hai. Is shabd se aap context aur bias samajhne mein expert ban sakte ho — especially news analysis mein.
WORD-3: Pronunciation
Sandarbh (Context):
"It was handpicked by the company’s founders for its lively ring and ease in pronunciation." - Times of India
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Pronunciation" ka matlab hota hai kisi shabd ko kaise bola jata hai — yaani uska actual sound jab usse kaha jaye. Yeh spelling se nahi, balki bolne ke tareeke se related hota hai. Communication aur language learning mein pronunciation bahut important hoti hai — galat bolne se misunderstandings ho sakti hain. Branding mein bhi asaan pronunciation kaafi useful hota hai, jaise context mein diya gaya hai.
Arth (Meaning): Kisi shabd ko bolne ka tareeka (Noun)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): pruh-nun-see-AY-shun
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐ Basic
Utpatti (Etymology): Latin "pronuntiatio" se aaya hai, jiska matlab hai "act of speaking", jo "pronuntiare" (proclaim ya declare karna) se bana hai
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Bohot log is word ko galat bolte hain — "pronounciation" kehte hain, jo sahi nahi hai. Dhyan rahe, isme "noun" nahi hai — sahi form hai "pronunciation", jiska base hai "pronounce", na ki "noun".
Samanarthi & Vipritarthi (Synonyms & Antonyms):
Samanarthi (Synonyms): articulation, enunciation, diction, speech
Vipritarthi (Antonyms): mispronunciation, mumbling, slurring

Kya pronunciation ke basis par kisi ki intelligence ya professionalism judge karna sahi hai? Aur kya yeh hamesha fair hota hai?
Chhoti Kriya (Quick Activity):
Paanch mushkil words choose karo (jaise: entrepreneur, genre, quinoa, epitome, niche) aur unki pronunciation aloud practice karo. Apna recording suno aur self-correct karo.
Yaad Karne Ka Tarika (Memory Tip):
Yaad rakho: "Pronunciation" mein “noun” nahi aata. Sahi sound hai “nun” – isliye bolo "pro-nun-ciation", na ki "pro-noun-ciation".
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Job interviews, public speaking, ya new language seekhte waqt sahi pronunciation se aapki clarity aur confidence dono badhte hain. Yeh brand names ke liye bhi crucial hota hai — simple pronunciation yaad rakhne mein help karta hai.
WORD-4: Retaliating
Sandarbh (Context):
"The Opposition accuses the government of weaponising law to keep the popular former president off the ballot and is retaliating by preparing to impeach the president." - Indian Express
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Retaliating" ka matlab hota hai kisi action ke jawab mein waisa hi action lena — jaise badla lena ya react karna. Jab kisi ke saath galat hota hai aur woh uska jawab equally ya intensely deta hai, usse retaliate karna kehte hain. Political ya personal situations mein jab ek taraf se kuch galat hota hai, doosri taraf retaliation karke uska jawab deti hai — jaise context mein Opposition impeachment prepare kar raha hai, jo ek strong retaliatory move hai.
Arth (Meaning): Kisi action ke response mein jawab dena, aksar badle ke roop mein (Verb - Present participle)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): reh-TAL-ee-ay-ting
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐⭐ Intermediate
Utpatti (Etymology): Latin "retaliare" se, jiska matlab hai "to repay in kind" — 're-' (wapas) + 'talio' (same punishment ya badla)
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Retaliation ka matlab hota hai badla lena — lekin hamesha yeh solution nahi hota. Yeh shabd politics, law aur relationships mein commonly aata hai. Sochiye — tit for tat. Practical duniya mein common hai, lekin wise nahi hamesha.
Samanarthi & Vipritarthi (Synonyms & Antonyms):
Samanarthi (Synonyms): avenging, countering, fighting back, striking back, responding
Vipritarthi (Antonyms): forgiving, yielding, ignoring, tolerating, accepting

Sanskritik Sandarbh (Cultural Reference):
Superhero movies jaise *The Avengers* mein heroes villains ke khilaf retaliate karte hain — yeh theme har classic hero-villain story ka part hoti hai.
Sochiye (Think About It):
Kya retaliation hamesha justified hoti hai? Ya kabhi-kabhi yeh unnecessary conflict badha deti hai? Aapke hisaab se kab retaliate karna chahiye aur kab shant rehna chahiye?
Chhoti Kriya (Quick Activity):
Do situations likhiye: ek jisme retaliating karna sahi ho, aur ek jisme shaanti banana better option ho. Apne reasoning explain karke likhiye.
Yaad Karne Ka Tarika (Memory Tip):
"Re" matlab wapas, aur "taliate" ko sochiye "tally" ke jaise — yaani jo mila uska equal jawab dena — badla lena.
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Yeh shabd news aur current affairs mein common hai — jab desh, leader ya party kisi attack ya criticism ka jawab dete hain. Agar aap yeh word samajh jaate ho, toh aap political motives aur responses ko clearly interpret kar sakte ho.
WORD-5: Illegitimate
Sandarbh (Context):
"The top court has got into the act, but whatever its decision, a large section of the deeply polarised society will see it as illegitimate and politically motivated." - Indian Express
Vyakhya (Explanatory Paragraph):
"Illegitimate" ka matlab hota hai kuch aisa jo kanooni ya socially accepted norms ke hisaab se valid na ho. Yaani, ya toh woh lawfully sahi nahi hai, ya log usse sahi nahi maante. Is context mein, chahe court ka decision legal ho, lekin log usse biased ya politically motivated maanke "illegitimate" keh rahe hain. Yeh word power, rule ya authority ko challenge karne ke liye bhi use hota hai.
Arth (Meaning): Jo law, rules ya norms ke hisaab se valid ya justified na ho (Adjective)
Uccharan (Pronunciation): ill-eh-JIT-uh-mit
Kathinai Star (Difficulty Level): ⭐⭐⭐ Intermediate
Utpatti (Etymology): Latin "illegitimus" se — 'il-' (not) + 'legitimus' (lawful), jo aaya hai 'lex' (law) se
Prashant Sir Ke Tathya (Prashant Sir's Notes):
Yeh shabd often perception pe based hota hai — koi cheez lawfully valid ho sakti hai, lekin log usse "illegitimate" maante hain. Politics aur legal debates mein yeh word powerful hota hai. Hamesha yeh socho: kya yeh illegitimate legally hai, morally hai, ya bas kuch logon ki nazar mein?
Samanarthi & Vipritarthi (Synonyms & Antonyms):
Samanarthi (Synonyms): unlawful, invalid, unauthorized, unrecognized, improper
Vipritarthi (Antonyms): legitimate, lawful, valid, authorized, justified
Udaharan (Usage Examples):
- Protesters ne naye policy ko illegitimate bola aur usse withdraw karne ki demand ki.
- Transparency ki kami ke wajah se log ne appointment ko illegitimate mana.
Sanskritik Sandarbh (Cultural Reference):
Shakespeare ke *King Lear* mein Edmund ko “illegitimate” son kaha gaya — jiska impact uske character ke bitterness aur ambition par dikhta hai. Aaj kal yeh usage outdated aur disrespectful maana jata hai.
Sochiye (Think About It):
Kya koi cheez legally sahi ho sakti hai lekin morally illegitimate lag sakti hai? Kya trust aur perception kisi decision ki legitimacy ko define karte hain?
Chhoti Kriya (Quick Activity):
Tin aise modern examples likhiye (political, legal, ya social) jahan log kisi decision ko illegitimate maante hain, chahe woh law ke hisaab se sahi ho. Batayein perception kyun matter karta hai.
Yaad Karne Ka Tarika (Memory Tip):
Prefix “il-” ka matlab hota hai “not”, aur “legitimate” ka matlab hai “valid” — toh "illegitimate" = “not valid or not accepted.” Easy trick with the prefix!
Vastavik Jeevan Me Upyog (Real-World Application):
Yeh shabd politics, media aur legal debates mein commonly use hota hai — jab kisi authority ya decision ko challenge kiya jata hai. Agar aap is word ko samajhte hain, toh aapko narrative ke andar ki bias aur power struggle samajhne mein help milegi.
