Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Benign में 'ben' यानी अच्छा, वही जो benefit में है। Doctor tumour के लिए benign (हानिरहित) और malignant (ख़तरनाक) की जोड़ी बोलते हैं। Benign यानी सौम्य, दयालु।

Benign starts with ben, the same 'good' you see in benefit. Doctors use the pair benign (harmless) and malignant (dangerous) for tumours. So benign means gentle, kind and harmless.
