Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Benefactor में benefit छिपा है, और bene यानी अच्छा। जो दूसरों का भला करे, पैसा या मदद देकर उन्हें benefit दे — वही benefactor है।

BENEFACTOR contains BENEFIT, and BENE means good. A benefactor is the person who does good for others by giving money or help, so that they benefit.

Exam note

SSC यह जोड़ा पूछता है: benefactor देने वाला, beneficiary पाने वाला। Malefactor (बुरा करने वाला) इसका उल्टा है।

SSC tests the pair: Benefactor gives help, Beneficiary receives it. The opposite is Malefactor (wrongdoer).
